Frankly, employing two people of color does not make a party of equals.

Of course, it doesn't. But the notion, as alleged by Al Sharpton, that these are "tokens" is racist and absurd. It is interesting to watch Bush work so masterfully. Instead of giving lip service by showing up at the racist NAACP meeting, instead, he does the right thing and seeks out absolute excellence for his cabinet -- which happens to include more highly placed African Americans than any in history. It's great watching a true leader work. Now the Democrats are attacking Larry Thompson, by all accounts a fine man. One day, African Americans will learn that Democrats are their worst enemy.

If it were, more of the people would vote for it.......plain and simple. And even in this day of a popular Rep., he can't translate his popularity into coattails.

Judging by the mudslinging going on by the liberals against Bush I'd say at least THEY fear his coattails. If what you said was correct, the liberals would not be dredging up every conceivable lie against Bush. No, you're wrong -- he plainly has coattails.

the media outlets are popular because they represent what the people are thinking

This is ridiculous, and ignores the fact that propaganda works. 90% of people watching this crap on TV have no idea they're getting a totally biased perspective. Hell, I've seen you remark here on this very forum that you don't find CNN biased. Most people believe they get unbiased news from the networks and the newspapers. The number of people who have flocked to FoxNews is clearly reflective of the fact that when they see an alternative presenting information fairly, they prefer it.

However, your mind isn't big enough to grasp such a concept

The usual reply when you can't make an argument.
