Republicans Dream of a Not-So-White Party
http://www.businessweek.com/articles...-party#r=lr-fs
On the first night of the Republican National Convention, a 37-year-old black woman delivered a spirited speech to the audience of largely white, largely middle-aged delegates. Mia Love, the GOP mayor of Saratoga Springs, Utah, and a candidate for Congress, was born to Haitian parents who came to Brooklyn with $10 and who, Love proudly said, “never took a handout” from the government. She was followed on stage by a succession of speakers who also didn’t fit the white-guy-in-a-tie Republican mold: Governor Nikki Haley of South Carolina, who is Indian American; Governor Susana Martinez of New Mexico; former Barack Obama supporter Artur Davis; Brian Sandoval, governor of Nevada; Sher Valenzuela, who’s running for lieutenant governor in Delaware; and Ted Cruz, a Harvard-educated Tea Party candidate from Texas. They told of coming to America, overcoming adversity, and finding a home in the GOP.

Re: Republicans Dream of a Not-So-White Party
With alot people it doesn't matter how many minorities are in party it will never be enough or just disregarded as a front or sell outs. The non thinkers have been so indoctrinated they will never see things for what they are.

What do you base these assertions on? It's obvious that GOPers ARE color blind since these minority candidates are being run and elected in predominately white districts. Why isn't the Democrat Party running minorities in white districts? Hmm? Obvious these minority GOP candidates see what YOUR policies have done to their people and want to deliver them from the leftist plantation. Are the 97% of blacks who voted for Obama guilty of racism?

Re: Republicans Dream of a Not-So-White Party
One of the greatest coups was how the white, racist Democratic party convinced African Americans and Latin Americans to join their party

That was a disgusting comment. However, I shouldn't expect much out of a marxist.

He just hates everyone who makes a nickle more an hour than he does (and believes they should than give that same nickle -plus an additional one as punishment, to him).
