Jerry Brown on 2020: ‘What’s Wrong with White Men?’
Breitbart ^ | 12/28/18

Posted on 12/28/2018 6:04:13 AM PST by Liberty7732

When asked about his thoughts on the 2020 field, outgoing California Governor Jerry Brown (D) recently told the Associated Press that white men will “probably be running things for quite a bit of time” and wondered, “What’s wrong with white men?” The Associated Press asked Brown, who recently told NPR that national Democrats are becoming too radical for voters, for a piece over the weekend if having three white men—Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), former Vice President Joe Biden, and Rep. Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke—as his party’s early 2020 frontrunners hurts Democrats, especially after the 2018 midterm elections in which Democrats celebrated successful female and minority candidates.

“Look, it’s not the skin color, it’s who’s the right person with the right set of qualities to lead the nation,” Brown reportedly said. “That can be a man or a woman, it can be someone of a background other than what we’ve seen for most of our history.”

The crazy thing is, there is no such thing. All of us are amalgams, no matter the color of our eyes or skin or hair. Culturally, western civilization has delivered more prosperity and freedom than any other. West is best. Remember when there was a class in college called Western Civ? Stemming from ancient Greek thought. Still ticking.

“white men will “probably be running things for quite a bit of time” “

LOL, saying that as a Dem is going to get him drawn and quartered.

Jerry, you the extreme left wing Democrat are going to get attacked by the more extreme left wing Democrats who make up most of your party.

That’s the first sensible thing he has said in years.

It's adorable that he thinks his neck isn't going on the block because of his white privilege.

“Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) recently told CNN host Van Jones that she was worried that the three current frontrunners are white men.”

I cannot stand this woman, she is an utter and complete psychopath, I really believe she should be in a mental ward. I unfortunately live in New York, had to come back to care for a sick parent, and I cannot believe the slime that is elected into office here. Freakin’ Cuomo as governor declaring the other day he wants to start a revolutionary war....

https://blog.timesunion.com/capitol/archives/285244/cuomo-declares-nys-independence-from-federal-government/?fbclid=IwAR12ilhFc-Zdv6gm0XmF74fCL_cnmUUGoPvE4-RnwDrxzH5xL7zGahAwots

And then this Alexandria No Cortex who makes even Sheila Jackson Lee look like a genius by comparison, but Gillibrand is the absolute worst. She literally wants to see the USA destroyed, dismantled, basically turned into some kind of 3rd world hellhole run by sheer anarchy. She’s wants the borders removed, ALL immigration enforcement removed, an end to police. Who the F is electing these psychopaths? Is it election fraud? I can’t believe someone could be so utterly stupid as to seriously consider these nuts for office!

Is he saying, “It’s OK to be White”?

It should. But Dems are notorious for conveniently forgetting the inconvenient truths and barking moonbat untruths that their leaders often issue.

Put "It's OK to Be White" on your office wall and see what happens.

That says it all. We constantly hear about “black pride” “black lives matter” but if anyone white mentions “white pride” forget it, out come the screams of racism, accusations of “white supremacy” and “white privilege”.
