Bush suddenly discovered on Thursday that there are black people in America.
"I consider it a tragedy that the party of Abraham Lincoln let go of its historic ties to the African American community," Bush said. "For too long my party wrote off the African American vote and many African Americans wrote off the Republican Party," he said.
"That history has prevented us from working together when we agree on great goals. It's not good for our country," said Bush, who received only 9 percent of the black vote in the 2000 presidential election and 10 percent in 2004.
Considering the Katrina disaster, the Republicans will be lucky to get 3% the next time around.
