re: #12 Talking Point Detective

How so?

Joking aside, I’ve actually been thinking that it would be a good thing in a serious sense. It would be evidence that at least some Republicans have grown past overt racism.

That isn’t to say that they’re past advocating for inherently racist policies - but making progress on racial issues will inevitably be a long, drawn out process, and a black Republican Party nomination would arguably be a significant step.

No, by getting some black/any old black and propping him up like they are doing Cain would only prove they have perfected the same old conservative, tokenist attitudes towards Blacks used against us for generations.

One of those whackodoodles gets the nomination, they’ve got a 50% chance of getting into the WH. I don’t want any of them anywhere near it.
