This site is dedicated to serious and informed discussions concerning issues of democracy in today's world. If you seek claptrap instead of intelligent discussion, you should turn on broadcast or cable TV shows that talk about politics. Here we seek intelligent and rational discourse. This means logical argumentation with good source citations. Blathering is not encouraged. You can sign your message with your actual name and identity or you can sign as anonymous.
Watch how this TV show tries to get this political candidate to share his views on civil rights and how he tries with very little skill, to conceal his racism.

The Republican Party is not racist as a party, but now has a public relations crisis on its hands with Mr. Paul riding along.

It feels like it to me. The international white supremacy conference is sometime this week in Nashville. The people in my life seem to think "being politically correct" is a bias and racism is not. And, voter suppression laws are a thinly veiled attempt at saying white people only without saying it outright. I am wondering if this is a reaction to the movement of the 60s or the economy or something?
The movement backward in time in favor of open prejudice and discrimination is very difficult to explain.
