Two sided coins… irrelevant 19th Century comparisons… anyone care to tell me where this guy is heading? ‘Cause I don’t think HE knows. Kinda like his mocha messiah, actually.
“Also, this is just common sense PR, trying to win a new customer….one who your firm has not had the best of history with…by insulting them doesn’t work very well. Your message here is “you’re not voting for us because you’re lazy, easily fooled, and like living under the thumb of a modern day plantation manager…..so why not consider voting for us?”. Yea, ok. Good job.”
Don’t patronize me, and don’t perceive me as a salesman. You assume that I consider blacks to be my “customers” (rather than another (or my own) race), and that I view my job as winning votes for the GOP. I could give two fracks about whether or not the fools in the GOP manage to win their quota of blacks because I know it doesn’t matter, as far as the country’s concerned. Instead, I think I’ll leave “mah-nori-tay” outreach to Michael Steele, a dying party’s own version of the underqualified “Magic Negro”. Good luck to him and his “hip hop” out reach, BTW.
“Likewise Republicans spent the primary this time around seeing who can be more nasty towards Hispanic immigrants.”
Here’s a hint. Worry less about the Repukes and worry more about race relations between your beloved colored people and Hispanics. You should hear the anti-hispanic rants at predominantly black City Council meetings in my area. Also witness the peace and racial harmony of Los Angeles, where immigrant gangs violently drive out the “mayates” (Google is your amigo). The dems will likely continue to win at the national level while city/state politics degenerates into tribalist animosity – if not outright political violence – as the economic decline continues. As a general rule, large political coalitions are inherently fragile. While the black/hispanic/jewish/SWPL alliance will continue to win presidencies and senate majorities, it will consistently fail to address underlying structural flaws w/in modern America due to breakdowns at the local level.
0bama has won the presidency precisely at the point when it is least likely to matter. As internal and external pressures on the nation increase he may end up becoming little more than the mayor of DC – a figurehead like Hamid Karzai who has next to no control over his country’s interior. For crying out loud, look at how congressional dems already talk past him in stimulius debates, etc. He’s either
(a) token black, and he knows it, or
(b) a giggling neophyte in the grips of socio-political forces he cannot begin to comprehend.
