Does Paul Ryan's Black Ex-Girlfriend Matter?
The Root ^ | August 20, 2012 | Keli Goff

Posted on 08/21/2012 10:15:49 AM PDT by cdga5for4

Shortly after it was announced that Rep. Paul Ryan would join the Romney ticket as this year's Republican vice presidential candidate, I wrote a piece titled, "What We Know About Paul Ryan and Blacks."

Well, I recently learned of another significant addition to this list.

As reported on Twitter by CNN's Pete Hamby, Ryan said he has a black sister-in-law, but perhaps even more interesting, his "college sweetheart" was African American.

So here is the million-dollar question: Is the fact that Ryan has dated interracially a noteworthy detail to consider when analyzing his politics and policies?

“At least not to conservatives but it will to the racist liberals”.

In their delusional world, all whites are irredeemable racists, period.

Ryan’s interracial dating and having a Black sister-in-law changes nothing, because he lacks sufficient melanin.

I don't understand the use of the term "African American" to describe all people of color. That description assumes a lot does it not?

A person of color would be a neutral descriptor.

Finally, if one is not a racist, why does skin pigment matter at all?

his "college sweetheart" was African American.

I am not sure if I buy that.

If she exists, then I am sure that the media will search the ends of the earth to hound her. I am sure the race pimps that populate the Democrat Party will hound her and euphemistically "encourage" or realistically threaten her to come forward and spill the dirt on the Wonderboy which would include the reason that she broke up with him which was that he was both a racist and a neanderthal who was abusive and dismissive of women.

If she exists, she will be waterboarded to come forward and trash Paul Ryan with fictionalized story written by Democrats.

I had a black girlfriend freshman year of college, does that somehow reflect badly on me that we didn't stay together?

Hmmm Democrats? Party of Jim Crow and Segregation?

Hmm?

Does me marrying one of those poor, "needs do be patronized by Leftists" Palestinians make up for that!?

Go jump in a lake Liberal Media, Paul Ryan is trying to help keep this nation intact and you people Balkanize and categorize Everything!

To liberals, this will prove he is racist. Why? He didn’t marry her... so she was his “Sally”. He had his “fun” with a black woman and then settled down with a white one. Just like a plantation owner... they can twist anything they want into being racist, sexist etc... IMHO.

Nah, they’ll say it proves he’s “out to screw blacks”.

Argh.

http://www.amazon.com/Barack-Obama-Larry-Sinclair-ebook/dp/B002PSD322

The biggest untold story of the 2008 U.S. Presidential Election... Finally, the no-holds-barred, 100% true story of Barack Obama’s use and sale of cocaine; his homosexual affairs and the December 23, 2007 murder of Barack Obama’s former lover and choir director of Obama’s Chicago church of 20 years, Donald Young, just days before the 2008 Iowa Caucus. This searing candid story begins with Barack Obama meeting Larry Sinclair in November, 1999, and subsequently procuring and selling cocaine, and then engaging in consensual, homosexual sex with Sinclair on November 6th and again on November 7, 1999. You'll read in riveting detail how Sinclair, in 2007, repeatedly contacted and requested that the Obama campaign simply come clean about their candidate's 1999 drug use and sales. You learn how the Obama campaign, David Axelrod and Barack Obama used Donald Young (the homosexual lover of Barack Obama) to contact and seek out information from Sinclair about who he had told of Obama’s crimes and actions. You'll read how the Obama campaign used internet porn king Dan Parisi and Ph.D. fraud Edward I. Gelb to conduct a rigged polygraph exam in an attempt to make the Sinclair story go away. The Obama team and the controlled media - specifically MSNBC’s Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann, the New York Times, CNN, Politico's Ben Smith, The DailyKos, The Huffington Post and others - attacked the National Press Club for making its facilities available to Larry Sinclair for a news conference to present his evidence and allegations to the world media. You'll read how Vice President Joe Biden’s son, Delaware Attorney General Beau Biden, issued an arrest warrant on completely false, fabricated charges to attempt to discredit Mr. Sinclair's National Press Club news conference. This is a staggeringly true story of how the sitting U.S.President with the help of the Mainstream Media, the Chicago Police Department, the FBI, the Delaware Attorney General and others got away with murder and more....

No.
The entire deck of race cards was left at DNC headquarters.

It matters to R’s advantage.
It matters that Dems are racists, R’s are not.
It matters that he has a background, 0bama does not.
Of course they vetted him with this as an advantage.
It matters that 0bama refuses to call himself bi-racial or mixed race, instead, black, which separates and perpetuates one drop rule. Dems are liars, bigots, racists, hypocrits.

This factoid just makes me like him more.

In high school, a girl's swab (basically a handkerchief to remove the moisture)got stuck in her clarinet.

Being the music repair genius that I am (right), I used a pencil to remove the swab from her expensive Buffet clarinet.

She gave me a big ol' hug, said she'd kiss me, but I'm white. I said don't let that stop you, but she did.

Kinda vacates the sleazy democrats racism card!!

I wish that were true. Now, they'll just say that this proves he's a racist because he dumped a black girl and married some white chick. (Never underestimate the sleaze potential of Democrats.)
