All over the Internet are stories that Zimmerman was a Dem, voted for Obama, had a black girlfriend he took to high school prom, mentored underprivileged black youths, started a business with a black partner, and more.
This does not come from any of the MSM, but from UK newspapers, friends of his and Internet articles from places I don't recognize. I can't tell if this is really true or where the info originates from. But if it is true, we are still being kept from this important information as the left is still trying to make him out as a racist. Even FOX news has not mentioned this info on their web site.

If true, why didn't they get this info out IMMEDIATELY????
And how does one find out if it is true or not?

And if true, do blacks and liberals STILL think he is a racist?

because in the end the truth doesnt matter to people bent on revenge. all they see is someone killed a black kid and the circumstances dont matter, the jury verdict doesnt matter, the backgrounds of the victim and the defendant doesnt matter, only the revenge.

All this is old news, but Zimmerman being a liberal Hispanic doesn't fit the Sharpton/Jackson/MSM meme of an innocent young black man being gunned down by a vicious Southern white cracker. The truth of this story was hijacked by demagogues of all persuasions.

It's not even about Trayvon, he's just the tool.

People like Sharpton make money and the Media needs a crisis. The 2014 elections are coming up and they need the Black vote pizzed off so they can get reelected.

It's all about money, power and politics.

that was part of my point which is why i called him the victim rather than pointing him out directly.

Because it is irrelevant.

[this is information just feeds the pointless chatter]

Does Fox News know about this? If they find out, they may change their story about him.

None of that matters to the liberals and race hustlers. The Only thing that would've kept them from even pretending to care is if Zimmerman's skin color was much darker.

IF it was so vitally important to the case - wouldn't you think his attorneys would have brought it in?
