Bush carrying 15% of the black vote in 2004
Black ministers meet Bush, many are impressed
By Arshad Mohammed
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Black ministers met President Bush Monday and several came away impressed by his desire to help their community, which voted overwhelmingly against the Republican president.
The half-hour meeting at the White House focused on Bush's faith-based initiative, a plan to encourage religious groups to seek billions in federal dollars to address alcoholism, drug addiction, homelessness and other social ills.
