An endorsement from someone like David Duke isn't about a candidate,its about David Duke and getting a little media spotlight again.If David Duke actually wanted to 'help' a candidate he wouldn't say anything....or he would endorse Cruz or Rubio to bring negative attention on them.

Duke did run for president in 1988 as a DEMOCRAT,perhaps articles and news items discussing him should address him as 'Former Democratic Presidential Candidate David Duke' said today........ It would be true,but of course unfair to the democrats....of course he later tried being a republican and we didn't want him either.
He was elected to Louisiana State House as a Republican...

This is from August.

Did you not watch the video from yesterday?

He said he's never heard of David Duke and didn't know anything about the KKK.

Yeah, I think people will vote for Hilary anyway.

Correction. The first link that you provided is current.

"Trump responded to being asked about the comments by telling the press, "I didn't even know he endorsed me. David Duke he endorsed me, OK? I disavow. OK?""

Not very convincing, especially given what he said later about not knowing anything.

You think Trump is a Conservative, too.
He just got what Bush and Christie left on the table.

Well, as a Black person, this is how I feel about it. If Donald Trump will not denounce the Klan, he has pretty much given me another reason not to vote for him. The KKK is a terrorist organization. They are known for their terrorist acts against Blacks, and not only Blacks. They have terrorized Catholics and Jews. Their philosophy is about subjugating minorities and viewing non-Whites as inferior.

Donald Trump claimed he could get 100 Black pastors to endorse him by a certain date. That date passed and about 3 to 6 supported him. If those who did support him found out he wouldn't denounce the KKK, I wonder how many of those persons would pull their endorsement?
