View Full Version : Republican National Convention puts a brown face on a white party

Until Ann Romney and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie stepped into the primetime spotlight Tuesday night, the stage at the Republican National Convention was dominated by a parade of racial and ethnic minorities. The same could not be said about the delegates in the hall. As the United States has become an increasingly more diverse country, the Republican Party has maintained a distinctly pale hue.
Still, the party can boast a number of black and Hispanic elected officials -- and a bunch of them were put in front of the TV cameras on the opening night of the Tampa confab. Among the featured speakers were Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval, Sher Valenzuela, the GOP candidate for lieutenant governor of Delaware, Ted Cruz, candidate for the U.S. Senate in Texas, South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley and the first lady of Puerto Rico, Lucé Vela Fortuño.
The top prize in the how-many-minorities-can-we-pack-behind-a-microphone sweepstakes goes to whoever booked Artur Davis, the black ex-Democratic congressman who seconded Barack Obama’s nomination four years ago. Having switched sides, Davis delivered a stinging rebuke to the president he helped elect.
Didn't this guys get his ass kicked in his last election? :smiley_ROFLMAO:

A. Liberals hate blacks who escape the plantation.
B. The drive-by media is ignoring almost all minority participation. MSNBC, DNC shills, are having a total blackout. Didn't you get the message from the White House, Cigar?
C. Minorities at the Republican convention were neither privileged enough or stupid enough to need a tutor to learn to be a minority.

So you have spoken to every single black American and know this for a fact?
The only way to really know will be on election day. And even that won't be a solid indicator because your race is not asked for on the ballot.

Come on, you have Mia Love, Michael Steele, Herman Cain ... and I think there are 3 others :smiley_ROFLMAO:

It's the democrats that play this race card thing at every turn. The GOP doesn't seek-out minorities because everyone is welcome and may enter of their own accord. Minorities aren't being pushed forward for the press, they just are there. Stop with your usual crap of devisiveness and grow up.

I would like to join you my friend. Drop your drawers.

C. Minorities at the Republican convention were neither privileged enough or stupid enough to need a tutor to learn to be a minority.Oh the left just loves to attack the GOP as a White party. But it isn't so. Some Blacks and minorities have managed escape from the democrat plantation...
I was watching MXNBC's coverage of the convention last night. They managed to skip coverage of almost every minority person who spoke. And that was a shame too, since those speeches were top notch.
Instead of showing the speeches from Artur Davis (Black), Mia Love (Black), and Ted Cruz (Latino), they covered them with group commentary by Maddow, Sharpton, Matthews, Schultz, Steve Schmidt, and Chris Hayes.
These so called "news :biglaugh:anchors" call the GOP racist but deliberately suppress showing the speeches of minority speakers.
Hypocrisy proven!
Pity...those were some damn fine speeches.

Blacks in America tend to vote against their interests.
The modern welfare state has done more to harm the black family than did early American slavery.

Interesting quote. Cigar not only is a racist, he even has contempt for his own folks, suggesting that they aren't capable of either having basic ID like everyone else or being able to go get the free ID that is being offered to anyone who needs it.
Cig, you remind me more of Barry all the time.
1. Freely takes racial preferences while holding your fellow citizens in contempt.
2. Writes many posts where the word "I" is prominent.
3. All sorts of diplomas but still lacking in basic education and ability to think critically.
4. Makes his living off of government and sees it as the source of all wealth instead of a great destroyer of wealth.
You sure you two didn't go to school together? At least you probably got sent by your parents, he got sent by "foreign student" fraud. Neither of you learned much though.
:rofl:

Cary Grant is just jumping on the "Bash Ann Romney" bandwagon. He has to - it's been ordered by the Liberal god of statism.

A parade that the racist liberals and their lapdogs in the media ignored. Well, except for the nitwits who defaced Mia Love's Wikipedia page. Didn't you get the message from the White House to ignore all minorities who don't follow the party line?

The left is obsessed with race. No ideas and no plan. Division is all they have.
