Great! Now given your logic above, explain this since you couldn't the last time you tried: In the south, where conservatives are equated with 'a bunch of racist rednecks' by their detractors, Tim Scott was enthusiastically elected to Congress in South Carolina, as was Allen West in Florida. Similarly, Marco Rubio was elected to the Senate from Florida in a runaway.
Explain this: "Here's a statistic to pore over this Thanksgiving weekend: In 2011, there will be more Republican minorities holding governorships, Senate seats and representing majority-white House districts than Democrats. There are only 18 elected officials who fit that category -- 10 Republican, eight Democratic. Republicans got a major diversity boost from the midterms, seeing their ranks of minorities expand from one (Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal) to nine, with the elections of Govs.-elect Susana Martinez (R-N.M.), Nikki Haley (R-S.C.), Brian Sandoval (R-Nev.), Sen.-elect Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and Reps.-elect Jaime Herrera (R-Wash.), Bill Flores (R-Texas), Raul Labrador (R-Idaho), Allen West (R-Fla.) and Tim Scott (R-S.C.). Gov. Deval Patrick (D-Mass.) heads the Democratic list of minority elected officials winning white voters, along with Sens. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.), Daniel Akaka (D-Hawaii), Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii) -- and Reps. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.), Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo.), Andre Carson (D-Ind.) and David Wu (D-Ore.). Overall, the clear majority of minorities in Congress are Democrats. But the numbers above reflect an inconvenient reality that, even with their much more diverse caucus, Democrats face similar challenges as Republicans in recruiting, nominating and electing minority candidates to statewide office and in suburban and rural districts that are majority-white. The vast majority of Congressional Black Caucus and Congressional Hispanic Caucus members hail from urban districts where it doesn't require a crossover vote to win, or represent gerrymandered seats designed to elect a minority member of Congress. They are markedly more liberal than the average Democrat, no less the average voter, making it more difficult for them to successfully mount a statewide campaign.
you are correct you are no lawyer. It has been a while since I read those cases, but i am pretty sure those were thrown out for procedural reasons with a bunch of liberal judge grandstanding in the end. if you wish to show I am wrong, you need to show some sort of trial or summary adjudication of the issues. Which I am sure you will not produce.
Yes or No, Is Harry Ried a racist for saying this: "light-skinned' African American 'with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one," Yes or No, Is Joe Biden a racist for saying this: "I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy⦠I mean, thatâs a storybook, man.â
You might be a lawyer,but so is Orly Taitz and the guy who got Col Linken 6 months in jail and kicked out of the Army You say those cases were kicked out due to procedural reasons please post something to back that up.The Judges said the cases were frivolous and a waste of the courts time
read the cases for yourself and then give us a link to a decision after a summary judgment motion, or a judgment after a trial. If you do not know enough about the law to support your argument then do not try to pretend you have a reason for saying the cases were decided on their merits. I am stating that when I did the research, I never saw that a court reviewed of the facts or made decision after a trial. but, if you know otherwise, produce a link.
The writer could have listed the 50 + black democrats who were in congress when they wrote this.(Could have also mentioned a black democratic President ).The writer could have also mentioned that when they wrote this the GOP didn't have any black Congressmen.
