re: #80 Guanxi88

So to sum up:

The racist GOP, which draws and attracts bigots, can do no other than to put a black man at the head to maintain a transparent fig-leaf (to mix metaphors) for its racism to those whose votes and opinions mean nothing to them?

Hell, if that’s really their plan, no wonder they lost the WH.

Timeline error, the GOP didn’t put Steele in the figurehead position until after it had lost the election. Steele represents an organization’s desperate flailing attempt at advertising racial diversity without actually representing or offering any real meaningful diversity. The term you’re looking for is token.
