There is a black man running for senate in my state and he was nominated by republicans. Would he get your vote? No, he wouldn't. He will be defeated by racist dems who want to keep the white guy in office.

Go look at how many black senators, representatives or Governors there are in the Republican party You've not-so-deftly changed the subject. It's not the Republicans fault if they nominate a black who's voted down by Democrats, is it? For example, in Massachusetts, the bastion of the liberal left, it was Edward Brooke, a REPUBLICAN, who was the first black Senator in a hundred years. And right now, Massachusetts Republicans again have a black nominee for senate, Jack Robinson. But 'dem bigoted liberals -- those oppressive plantation-masters -- will vote in Ted Kennedy again. Now, tell me again how this indicates GOP bias?? It is the Democratic party that has brought down the walls of discrimination -- this time, by appointing Lieberman as the VP nominee. Absolutely. They've made the world safe for flip-flopping hypocrites everywhere. I am sure that the first woman Presidential candidate ... and the first black (or Hispanic or any other minority group) VP and Presidential candidates will also be from the Democratic party. Phew. Well, if you're sure, then I'm going to sleep soundly tonight knowing it's a done deal. Given that you're awfully sure of stuff that's been proven wrong, "I'm sure" you'll be consistent here, too. Why not bring your bias right to the surface and state it explicitly. You honestly believe that only Democrats could POSSIBLY love black people. Or Jews. Or women. That you are wrong is incomprehensible to you.
