The Republicans only had 12 in 2016. What’s with all the love for white guys in the party now? And the oldest, whitest one leading the pack by 30 points. Too funny.
They’re missing their big chance. rashida tlaib should be their candidate in 2020. She was born in America (Detroit, MI). She is old enough (42). She’s the golden ticket! They can show the world they are not deplorable islamaphobes, or misogynists. And she gives them Michigan.
Instead they’re turning to the oldest, whitest dude they could find. (well aside from gravel)
It is kind of encouraging to see that there are a bunch of white males, along with the other people who have announced, who will are willing to stand up to Donald Trump and his con job.
I’ve not seen a Republican white male who is strong enough to do it. They’ve all tucked tail.
25 women in Senate - 17 are Democrats, 8 Republicans.
102 women in US House - 89 are Democrats, 13 Republicans
There are 4 minority women Senators (latino/black, etc.) who are Democrats. All Republican women are white.
There are 46 minority women in US Congress (latino/black, etc.) who are Democrats. There are 4 Republicans.
I am not worried about some white dude wasting his money by joining the race for President. He isn’t going anywhere.
Well that’s a blatant falsehood. I didn’t even check the rest of your post, but when you put something false like that in there it shows you have zero credibility.
So your fantasy of the Civil War is that the people who launched it welcomed African-Americans, Hispanics, women and gay people in their decision making.
What Civil War was that again???
Next you will probably tell us that the Civil War had nothing to do slavery.
Stick to your topic – which is pointing out people’s races… since that is something that appears to matter a great deal to you.
There is one African American male in Senate who is a Republican.
There are 6 latino men in US House as Republicans, one African american male as Republican.
Why would I do that?? The DEMOCRATS seceded, fought, killed, died to keep their slaves. Then they started the klan, lynching, jim crow, poll taxes and segregation and Planned Parenthood, all because they lost the Civil War.
Crowded field with few centrists, it looks like Biden is liable to walk away with it unless a few people drop out and Sanders doesn’t have to split the vote so much.
Planned Parenthood was founded by Democrats because of the Civil War???
Can you explain that one?
You are absolutely correct that the Democrats were the party of segregation of the Ku Klux Klan, until the 1960s, when the Republicans nominated a Presidential candidate who opposed the bi-partisan Civil Rights Act and then a candidate whose Southern Strategy had the Republican Party use the Democrats’ embrace of Civil Rights to woo white southern voters into the Republican Party. And since the early 70’s the parties have switched positions. I think the behavior of living Republicans and Democrats is more important to us than where the parties lined up more than half a century ago, or 150 years ago.
