    Hmm, seems like systemic racism would be from those who are 98% white party.

    But to the OP, Dems will vote for Dems. No matter the color, sex, gender, or sexual orientation. Those traits don't matter to character.

    Makes no difference to me if you want to vote based on skin color.

    But you completely ignore the number of Independent voters that Trump lost - and they are the ones that decide an election.

    And your poll was from 2019 - in the 2020 election, Trump only managed
    to get about 14% of the Black American vote.

    End of story.

    Racism is horrible. It's not OK to not vote for someoene because they are black. Like what happened to Stacey and Larry.

    So you DO think if a black person isn't voted into office that it's racist. Very odd.

    What does the media have to do with your opinion that it's racist to not vote in black people? Have you always been obsessed with skin color or is this something new for you?

    Stacy Abrahams lost in Georgia because the Secretary of State scrubbed the voter rolls in a way which would benefit her opponent. The disgusting part of this is that her opponent was the Secretary of State himself....Conflict of interest...Ya think? Larry Elder lost in California because he is a right wing Trump supporter. A large majority of Californians despise right wingers and Trump. Pretty simple really and nothing to do with Larry’s race. But you already knew that.

    If you are sincerely pushing the cause of nonwhite politicians, which I very much doubt, you should avoid such ridiculous posts.
    A huge majority of Californians voted for Newsom because they don't want a Republican governor, full stop. Trying to make that election result a racial issue is completely missing the point. And several posters have fully understood that and are now trying to pull your stupid and hateful slogan in favor of Trump, which maybe is what you're actually aiming at under the guise of pushing a black candidate.

    Fallacy, argumentum ad hominem: I am not the topic of this thread.

    Back on topic, was it ridiculous to suggest that opposing the policies of President Obama was due to racism? Ridiculous to suggest questioning the qualificiations of VP Harris is because "a black woman having power freaks them out"? Ridiculous for CNN to report that Stacey Abrams lost the GA governor's race because America is a racist country?

    Curious to hear your response.

    The left uses identity politics when it suits them, claiming historic victories when a non-white, non-male leftist candidate rises to political prominance and then blames racism when they fail. It is the height of hypocrisy and cynicism. It literally smells. Shock to no one: Pandering is their currency, however.

    This should be blatantly obvious to even the most casual observer. The irony of Larry Elder is he is a proclaimed believer in merit and would be the last person to blame his defeat on racism.

    But if Stacey Abrams lost because America is a racist country, then so did Larry Elder. Or they didn't. One condition cannot be true in one case and untrue in another. Two objects cannot occupy the same space at the same time. I shouldn't have to explain this.

    If Larry Elder had been white and Newsom had been black, Newsom would have won anyway.

    And, fyi, Obama won Cal in 2008 and 2012 by about 3 million votes against McCain (200) and Romney (2012); both of them were already whites at the time.

    Your slogan doesn't hold here; try another joke!

    Oh you and your "facts." If you deny racism in America, you are the problem.

    I understand facts disturb you.
    Who says I deny racism in America?
    But I refuse to systematically and stupidly cry racism every time a white is elected against a black.

    You need to get woke my friend. I see blacks holding power makes you uncomfortable. But they are just as talented and capable. We see you.

    Many Black Americans have become completely dependent on the many DP programs that allow them to subsist in our corrupt political system. The RP tends to oppose those programs and, until the election of DJT, has refused to offer any way for the poor to rise and escape the horrific conditions our corrupt system has consigned them to.

    I cannot think of any reason for the poor in America to ever support the GOP. But, as Malcolm X points out the problem with RP pols has more to do with corruption and indifference to human suffering than racism.

    “Both of them have sold us out, both parties have sold us out. Both parties are racist, and the Democratic Party is more racist than the Republican Party.” Malcom X, By Any Means Necessary, Malcom X, Betty Shabazz and Pathfinder Press, 1992, P 46.

    The DP's political model has always relied on capturing and exploiting a helpless dependent underclass of ethnic and racial minorities.

    No one can really know how many votes "Trump lost". "Free and fair" elections in the US have been exposed as one of those myth things. That inconvenient truth becomes more obvious during every election cycle now.

    "Although there is no evidence that the millions of missing ballots were used fraudulently, the Public Interest Legal Foundation, which compiled the public data provided from the Election Assistance Commission, says that the sheer volume of them raises serious doubts about election security.

    These questions are particularly relevant as the COVID-19 pandemic is forcing states across the country to rapidly expand vote-by-mail operations in an election year. Democratic Sens. Amy Klobuchar and Ron Wyden have proposed the Natural Disaster and Emergency Ballot Act of 2020, a bill that would allow every eligible voter the opportunity to vote by mail, regardless of state laws governing mail-in ballots."

    https://www.realclearpolitics.com/a...t_missing_in_last_four_elections_143033.html#!

    Stories about millions of ballots that cannot be accounted for reveal massive flagrant election fraud.

    There are plenty of stories about Big Foot ... doesn't mean it exists.

    Big difference between "missing" and just not mailed in. Most elections see less than a 50% vote from registered
    voters - so in states like Colorado that mail ballots to every registered voter, it's hardly surprising that a million would
    simply end up sitting on the kitchen table, unused (Colorado has about 5 million registered voters).
