NEW YORK (Reuters)

..this week at the Republican National Convention, black delegates say they worry the party isn't putting its money where its mouth is.

"The Republican Party has been its own worst enemy in the black community," said John Crittenden Jr., a Baptist minister and Kentucky delegate. "They don't come to our community. They think the Democrats have it locked up."

Crittenden and other delegates seeking support for outreach efforts aimed at the black community voiced skepticism over the reception they are getting at the convention to nominate Bush for a second term as president. ..

Rev. Eugene Rivers, a Bush supporter who runs a coalition of black churches in Boston, voiced more than skepticism.

"There appears to be almost an abject incoherence on the part of the Republicans when it comes to the issue of racially diversifying the party," he said. "We see no tangible evidence to justify the assertion that's there has been any serious effort.

"This is a case of too many words and no visible deeds," he said. ..
