He is a rising star. Hopefully he learns from this and doesn't make such statements in the future. The press lives for a right wing guy to say this stuff in public.
They do all the time. The media just "misses" it. Typically it is in the form of "bigotry of low expectations." For example, it isn't news if a black gang banger kills other blacks, because that is what "they do." But it is news of a white guy (who later turns out to be Hispanic) kills a black kid.
Well that's just the definition of 'news', Peter.
You don't do an investigative report on "dog bites man".
Nooone's going to run a headline of "Korean family immigrates locally, opens convenience store to facilitate process".
But the fact that black kids shooting each other in failed cities is so common it's not even worth mentioning on the news is not a point IN FAVOUR of how easy, and spoiled and entitled black people have it in those areas. Everyone living inthose neighborhoods is living in that reality - and I sure the $#@! don't live in that reality. My kid walks down the street safe as can be. I don't spend a minute of the day worrying about him walking past drug dealing murderers to get to school every day for the next 12 years.
It's kind of an alarm bell on how BAD things have gotten in those places. Not how lucky and pampered they are.

Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

I wouldnt call him a rising star until he actually gets somewhere. Christie was the darling of the left ahead of rubio and then he did one thing the right didnt like and he got punted.
Wasnt very long ago Herman Cain was taunted as a rising star. Dems and GOP alike annoint rising starts before they are totally vetted, like Christie for one. I wouldnt be so quick with this guy.
As far as the statement that Liberals dont make disparaging remarks about minorities, even if that were true its because of the difference in agenda and talking points between liberals and conservatives. Liberals insult everyone else. Like calling people trailer park trash etc. Its a two way street and neither is on the high road of verbal insults.

Still he coveys a very good message about what the federal government should do for us.
