I didn't say white people at all. In the region I'm in, it's very common to see ethnic discrimination through language discrimination. They may as well have "no blacks or whites need apply" because of the way they make foreign language preferences in hiring.

You can gauge the relevancy of a person by the level of liberal hystronics directed towards them.

So supporters believe that stores, gas stations, etc.. should have the right to ban blacks or hispanics? Nothing wrong with that?

Yes, I think that is a very true statement.

Right?

Exactly -- race based scholarships most definitely are discriminatory -- maybe equality in scholarships should be the goal. Whatever portion of whites, blacks, Asians etc there are in the total population must be reflected in scholarships?

Private individuals should have the right to associate with whoever they like...

I am sure you do not want to force others to your way of thinking do you?

I have read the threads where Tea Party supporters are agreeing with or defending his stance, but have yet to read any that do not agree with what he said, and was just curious if the overwhelming sentiment was agreement.

Apparently so. Remember we're talking Teabaggers here...everybody knows what they're about. They wouldn't mind seeing Jim Crow return.

So regardless of his platform, you would support him because his views on Title VII are causing consternation? I will always support everyone's right to vote, but seriously some people obviously don't deserve it.
