During the summer 2011 debate over raising the U.S. debt ceiling, Scott said that President Barack Obama could be impeached over the debt crisis.[49] Scott supported the inclusion of a balanced budget constitutional amendment in the debt ceiling bill, and opposed compromise bills that did not include the amendment. Before voting "no" on the final compromise legislation, Scott and other first term conservatives prayed for guidance in a congressional chapel. Afterwards, Scott acknowledged he had received divine inspiration regarding his vote, and joined rest of the South Carolina congressional delegation in voting no on the measure.[50][51]
Taxes and spending – Scott believes that federal spending and taxes should be reduced.[3]
Health care – Scott believes the 2010 health care reform law should be repealed.[3][52][53] Scott states that the health care in the U.S. is one of the greatest in the world,[53] asserting that people all over the world come to study in American medical schools, waiting lists are rare, and Americans are able to choose their insurance, providers, and course of treatment.[53] Scott supports an alternative to the health care bill that he says keeps these benefits while controlling costs by reforming the medical tort system by having a limit on non-economic damages[53] and by reforming Medicare.[53]
Earmarks- Scott opposes earmarks.[3]
Economic development - He supports infrastructure development and public works for his district believing it will improve the economy.[3] He opposes restrictions on deepwater oil drilling.[3]
Social issues – Scott describes himself as pro-life. Scott supports adult and cord blood stem cell research.[54] He opposes embryonic stem cell research funded by taxpayers.[55] He opposes the creation of human embryos for experimentation.[56] and opposes assisted suicide.[54]
Immigration – Scott supports federal legislation that is similar to the Arizona law, Arizona SB 1070.[57] He supports strengthening penalties for employers who knowingly hire illegal immigrants.[57] He also promotes cultural assimilation by making English the official language in the government, and by requiring new immigrants to learn English.[57]
Labor –Scott has a pro-business orientation.[58]
Foreign Policy -Scott advocates a continued military presence in Afghanistan and believes an early withdrawal will benefit Al-Qaeda. He also views Iran as the world's most dangerous country and believes that the US should aid pro-democracy groups there.[59] Scott opposed the 2011 military intervention in Libya

That didn't take long...

But this “first black” rhetoric tends to interpret African-American political successes — including that of President Obama — as part of a morality play that dramatizes “how far we have come.” It obscures the fact that modern black Republicans have been more tokens than signs of progress.

If Black Republicans are merely "tokens", then what should all of the Democrats voting for freebies be refered to as?
