I have a very large TV with great resolution and it was so bright when the cameras panned the GOP Delegation Audience I had to were my prescription sunglasses. kentay

I wonder if the old boy loves Mia as much as we do!

Maybe he liked Artur Davis.  Possibly Condi.  But if he watched Msnbc he was probably content watching old white people.  More comfortable that way.

Well, woody, what do you think?  Looks as if kentay is too busy posting his agitprop to engage with us!

The difference between the two major parties is the Republican mostly white party is only open and supported by people of color that think the same as the mostly white Republican party does. They have no diversity among anyone of color that says they are a Republican. The Democratic party is open to all people of color and have a diversity of Ideas, thoughts and feeling. I have yet to see any Republican person of color that has a difference in opinion from the Republican talking points. You ether do it their way or they will not support you in the next election. How many persons of color in the Republican Party, have you ever seen, who spoke with diversity of Ideas, thoughts and concerns about their people of color community.  If I couldn't see a Republican persons of color I would not know what color they were by what they believe or say from a white Republican talking points. So even though you may have persons of color within the Republican party they are not representing the majority of persons of color they come from. More than likely they got their majority from the white peoples who voted for them and not from the persons of color in the area they come from. I am a White person and if I was elected from any state there would be minority bills from persons of color, from other religions and different cultures other than my own,  I would vote for and support them  just like I would do from white voters when I felt the bill was best for my country and its people.  I know that when we are united with a strong middle class and a way for poor people to move into the middle class, we become a stronger country  and  when we divide like now, we fail. I have lived a long time and I have never seen our country be so divided and filled with such outgoing hate mongers and bigots, since Jim Crow days. And the problems is the Republican Party mostly condones it by not speaking out against them and we all are the losers for it. Because when we let and give our support to bigots and  hate mongers by our silence, it divide us. We cannot stay a United Country if we divide along difference in cultures, religions, races and wealth, we just become like other countries with their divisions and strife. I just know  without a strong and growing middle class, we are fast becoming the un-United States of America, because we are setting people against each other. By our words, our politics, our laws, our jobs, our money and  by our silence of not speaking up for the least among us, we are losing our country.  We are fast losing our concern for our fellow man, because of our greed, selfishness and arrogance, yet we claim to be the most religious country on earth.  Kentay

Kentay, why can't you evaluate a politician on their beliefs instead of their color?

I will as soon as your party will give up its southern strategy and recruit people of color in some proportion to their numbers in our country,  into your white party. Right now your party does not give representation to all Americans, AND THAT IS NOT CONSTITTUTRIONAL . kentay

Lmao!   First, you have no understanding of the constitution.  Second, you are a bigot.  Third, Ryan in from Wisconsin.  Romney is from Michigan.  Mia love is from Utah.  Artur Davis is southern.  Allen west is from Florida.  Tim Scott is from Sc.  Exactly what is this southern strategy? 

Again kentay judges people by the color of their skin.

This is 2012.  Get with the times old man.

What a pile of bigoted nonsense!

My eye was particularly drawn to this nugget:

"They have no diversity among anyone of color that says they are a Republican. The Democratic party is open to all people of color and have a diversity of Ideas, thoughts and feeling."

With the Democratic convention running this week, I'm going to start a thread entitled, "Diversity of Thought at the Democratic Convention."  Every time a speaker presents a diverse thought, kentay can post a reference to it.  I'm looking forward to dozens of examples, old boy!
