Who dictates who lives with who? Maybe a gay Affirmative Action, is needed.

Looking for fault where none exists are you? LOL!
Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about. You claim to be a well read man.

From a vote-getting perspective, Republicans are on the right side of the gay issue. When it comes down to it, the only groups that care strongly about gay rights enough to influence how they vote are gays and gay-haters and the gay-haters greatly outnumber the gays. They will get more votes from the anti-gay marriage faction than they will lose from the gays.

This is not the case with Hispanics. They have a real problem with that demographic and it could well cost them the election in '16.

All it took is a look at the audience to see the dilemma that conservatives face. It was old, yes, but it was overwhelmingly white. That is in stark contrast to the faces one sees walking down the streets of American cities. People don't all vote along racial lines of course, but a subtle message is evident in the optics. It has not gone unnoticed by young people and minorities.

LOL. Fear? Well, then again, there are some people who are afraid of clowns, so the annual Gathering of the Clowns (aka C-PAC) may foster a few nightmares in that regard, I suppose.

Sounds like all of your birther arguments--it's gonna happen Any. Day. Now. Don't you get tired of being so consistently wrong?

Because of the political races she lost or because she is frequently ranked as one of the worst CEOs of all time?

And they ALWAYS pan a close-up of the lone black person in the audience- HYSTERICAL. Blacks should get smart and hire themselves out as "fillers" like at the Academy Awards.

It goes beyond your hate message, but there are also family members/ friends of gays who do consider the anti-gay hatred of the Repubs before they vote.

Go inform yourself instead of just blathering tired epithets. Maybe go build a teepee if you're really Native American?

Jeez, you're on to something here. There's real money to be made by starting a temp employment agency for this election cycle that has a large selection of Hispanic, Black and Native Americans for hire at republican campaign meetings, to act as media background.

I'll send over as many varied ethnicities as you want for 150.00 buck a head. I'll even sprinkle in a few gays if you want. "Gays Cruising for Cruz".

Gold! I tell ya. Pure Gold!
