So, now.....is the ‘game’ to get as many minorities as the other side? Frankly, I could give a crap about black, hispanic, asian, inuit, samoan, etc. I care about legal Americans and the HISTORICAL conservative values upon which this country was founded. If we pander to these groups we become the equivalent of the party that now supports the tyrant in the White House and his entire regime.

I have an idea. Let’s form a group to get REPUBLICANS elected. I don’t give about their complexion or who their ancestors were, or what kinds of sex they engage in. When you start down that road you have already strayed from what it means to be a Republicans and an American.

Good! George P. Bush is an excellent, genuinely conservative person and I think it’s extremely important to make it clear that not everybody in the GOP hates Hispanics. I saw a GOP candidate send two Hispanic women out of his fundraising meeting in tears. These were well-dressed women from Miami who, judging by their accents, were American born and brought up, but had Spanish last names and dark hair - and he launched into a tirade against Hispanics, something he would never have done discussing blacks, Chinese or any other group.

We need to get a grip on this.

If I’m not mistaken, it was Bush’s Nephew that went down into Mexico and campaigned for Bush when he was running for election...

“The Hispanic Republicans of Texas...”

#####

So no one, no one at all, will have a problem if I launch a group:

“European Conservatives of Missouri”

Right?

Sure, why bother attracting people with the same principles and convictions when you can race pander? Can the GOP explain to me how we defeat the rats by becoming them?

They came out with every excuse in the book...One said Bush's Nephew went down into Mexico to campaign for him to reach out to the Americans living in Mexico...

I kid you not.

Here’s a novel idea - how about the GOP get intelligent and honest Americans on the ballot and not pander to racists?
