You post buzzwords.

Conservatives are the one's who believe that 200 years of racial discrimination were wiped out, salved and made ineffective in 1964. Has the EEOC gone out of business due to lack of work?

This thread is on race-baiting in electoral campaigns. If you have anything on Democrats doing that then post it. All the rest of your blather is deflective trolling.

No, I post the position of the Democrat party: minorities are incapable of obtaining and ID and/or being successful without government intervention. The following statement by you is comprised of buzzwords:

Not one conservative that I know claims that 200 years of racism was wiped out in 1964. That's a Democrat falsehood, used to make minorities think that they care.

I did point out race-baiting in Democrat campaigns. You tried to play it off as the ramblings of the demented old man in the White House.

Every time I've been accused of trolling, other than the rare times I was doing it on purpose to irritate a troll, it was because someone didn't like having holes poked in their argument. I'm not even arguing that Republicans don't use race-baiting. I'm sure some do. I'm simply pointing out that someone who supports the racist positions of the Democrats calling the Republicans out for race-baiting is a shining example of stupidity.

When starting a new thread, please do not post only a link or a video. Other members may not know what your intent was if that is all there is. Also, subsequent posts may be off topic if they have no idea what topic you wanted to set forth with your link/video. Add a line or two to let the readers know your thoughts.

Examine the GOP position on affirmative action! Be more discerning.

You mean the view that success should be based on merit and ability rather than on checkboxes? Yeah, I'm not in opposition to that view. Most people who aren't racist wouldn't be.

Well, affirmative action in higher education appears to be on the chopping block. Today Supreme Court will hear oral arguments involving two cases and the question is: Can universities use race as a factor in admitting students? My guess is their answer will be no.

Chief Roberts has been itching to do away with AA for years. Now he has an opportunity.

The bigger question is will the USSC limit their ruling to higher education or include hiring practices in both the private and public sector.

In my opinion, there shouldn't be a "race" box on any document.

Nothing more than "reaching" by the desperate, and everyone knows which is the party of racism, and it isn't the Republicans. It looked like both sides were "shadowed". If one looks at racism in depth rather than parroting liberal media, it could be a real eye opener!

Sure. I thought about this and realized that, for good or bad, we need to keep statistics.
