I'm truly shocked that there are still people who would actually think and support a person like that. He's worse than David Duke!
At least Illinois has some other state to share the shame with (it too has a congressional district with a white supremacist GOP nominee). Even Louisiana due to it's 1991 Gubenatorial race (thankfully La had the good sense to "Vote for the Crook" because it WAS important!).
The 2/3 margin you keep crying about equals 824 votes, the incumbent Democrat got over 27,000 votes in the last election and he will win again without question. The NC GOP didn't support this candidate, he got no endorsements and he stands no chance whatsoever of winning anything.
The real point here is that a racist old nut job ran for office on the GOP ticket in a district that is overwhelmingly Democrat and African American. Now people on the left like yourself are jumping at the chance of being dishonest and making it sound like the GOP ran some racist candidate and he got a ton of support, neither of which are even remotely true.
Why is it when I vote—I Get called names or maybe even get beat up for wearing stuff that identifies my party
But you dead people get to vote 4 times and you are called champions of social justice
In the old days they did not call you social justice champions- in Germany they they called you brown shirts

Stop being a liar.
First of all I'm not "on the left", and never have been. The question is, how did any vetting that should have occurred even let this guy run, and more so, why was HE the one that most of the GOP voters choose? Yes, the GOP did disconnect from him, but remember, 824 people voted for the racist.
And I am not a liar. I am telling the truth. He won the GOP primary.

I think a lot of people go to the primary to vote on just a single issue or office and just vote for whatever name sounds best on the other offices. Walker is less ethnic sounding than his opponent and I remember years ago around Houston when a Larouche candidate named Jones beat out a reputable Democrat with an ethnic surname. Yes, that reason is a bit racist too. Is it an open primary state? If so, it ain’t inconceivable Democrats voted for Walker to embarrass the GOP
The Democrats are not too far away.....Al Sharpton is champion in the Democrat party and he is one of the biggest racist and bomb thrower racial agitator in the country.
You had a sitting President, President Obama said of Sharpton in the W.H. "the voice of the voiceless and a champion for the downtrodden" and invited many times in the W.H. and gave him a platform. MSNBC gave him a job. He is always invited as a speaker at every Democratic convention for the past 14 years.
in a Quinnipiac University poll in 2014, 25% of New York City voters said Al Sharpton is the most important black leader in NYC.
49% of NYC residents see Al Sharpton as a positive force compared to 40% who view him as a negative force.
Black Democrats in Congress embraced and invited several times to Congress Farrakhan and one of those was Obama when he was a U.S. Senator.
you have many black racists and racial agitators in public office in Chicago, Detroit, Baltimore, D.C. and Los Angeles....Maxine Waters is another racist agitator who is re-elected over and over in her district in L.A. by wide margins.
and don't get me started with LA RAZA and other racists Latinos in office where Latinos are the majority like in parts of Los Angeles and other cities.
so before you come with your selective outrage at least at least be consistent with everybody on both sides.
At the same time, a member of the the Charlotte city council, a Democrat, has called the police terrorists and says that 9/11 was fake. This is the largest urban area in NC. Why hasn't the Democrat party dropped support for her?
Is she on the ballot this year? Seriuos question, because although I don't think she is, I'm not sure either
What did it say about the Democrats when they elected a KKK leader for 50 years? If he hadn't died they'd STILL be electing him. There is a statue of him in the US Capital, and yet no liberal has demanded it be turn down. Funny how it isn't an issue to liberals when they do it.

You know, most of us failed mind-reading a long time ago. Want to give us a hint of what your are referring to?
LOL at normstad still trying to forcememe this thread. No one cares normstad. You don't even care.
