Exactly how do you know that these "powerful black groups and black spokepersons" did not do any research on energy development?

It is widely known, enough that you should accept it as common knowledge, that the NAACP is an association not a Business and not an energy research agency. If you don't know that you should before even bringing it up on a thread like this. Educate yourself.

It was stated that the spokesperson for the 100 black businessmen did not do energy research nor was his support based on energy research performed by the group.

Alford addressed Blocker by stating those were simply black people and black groups who could support whatever they wanted too and they have nothing to contribute to this debate. She challenged him saying they could say the same of you to which he reminded her that he was there with documentation.

"You seem to be making a strong presumption that some may say is racially based. Is that true?"

I'm not making any presumption, the allegation of racism was cast and it was backed strongly by substantial evidence, obvious and irrefutable evidence, which you have seen.
