This is the cheerleader Paul Ryan dated at college who helped forge his uncompromising opposition to racism.

The relationship and the backlash he suffered from his so-called friends were a formative experience in the political evolution of the Republican vice-presidential pick who described himself as a 'big, big fan' of Martin Luther King and is a staunch advocate of civil rights.

Today Mail Online reveals the woman whose romantic attachment led Ryan, who electrified the Republican convention in Tampa with his speech on Wednesday night, to experience racism first hand.

The Republican vice-presidential candidate dated Deneeta Pope, now 40 and a realtor living in Chicago, after they met at Miami University, Ohio in the early 1990s. Michael Steel, campaign spokesman for Ryan, today told MailOnline: 'Mr Ryan dated Ms Pope in college.'

I think the sentence you quoted includes editorial comment from the writer, not from Romney. It reflects a euro stereotype of the gop that Romney would have had no reason to express himself.

“All my favorite cigars have Cameroon wrappers...there might be something in that country that needs investigating.”

Hey! Me Too!

In my case, Partagas Limited Reserves (they have a green band, not the red or black). Ridiculously overpriced compared to a lot of other brands, but they are my favorite so I occasionally indulge myself.

I think Harris Faulkner on Fox is drop dead gorgeous too.

No doubt about it, although I think Uma Pemmaraju was working at Fox before Harris Faulkner and set the standard for news woman which had been blond, blue eyed, cheerleader types. Both ladies are strikingly beautiful and I believe that part of their charm is that either can maintain eye contact for the duration of the typical news clip. They both are capable of out-staring a cat! In my humble opinion, there is nothing more mesmerizing about a beautiful woman then an unblinking gaze back into admiring eyes.

I see you!

Hell, even Obama’s BC had to be photoshopped.

Only the MSM thought it was authentic.

it was what at one time used to be called "The Old American Melting Pot"

Until the Liberals turned it into a "tossed salad."

Maybe but nothing will ever beat my favorite Movie of all time, a BUNCH of people get their stuff today from it.

I am sure it would make many liberals head explode if it were made today.

Meanwhile Obama’s college girfriend is a ‘composite’

It would have been something if he called her a composite. But no, the literary genius that he is referred to her as a ... compression!!!

That photo never ceases to freak me out. Straight men NEVER sit on a sofa that close together. It’s obvious they like it that way, considering all the stuff piled up next to Hussein. It’s not like someone else was sitting there and got up for a minute before the pic was taken. They’re cozy.


The crossed legs to me are another giveaway.

Real men don’t sit like that

Unless there’s some other major speech he made on this topic, his address to the NAACP does not characterize his father’s stance as contrasting the rest of the GOP.

Someone should issue her a blanket pardon for all charge past, present and future: Because she is clearly NOT GUILTY!

A bit by the late comedian Sam Kinison is brought to mind. I won’t paraphrase it or post a link but if you can find it, it’s hilarious.

Nothing about the economy, Afghanistan, taxes, or unemployment, just RACE, RACE and more RACE!

I agree. Looking at the picture of Ryan's former girlfriend, right off the bat I can think of at least two things about her that are more important to me than her race.
