Just imagine if there was a political commercial in California urging the few white people left in the state to "stick together"...

The condemnation would be heard across the country! O'Reilly would be talking about it, the politician's life would be threatened, and the hustler 'civil rights' lawyas from New Yawk would be lining up to sue.

Dan Adler just has a penchant for corny political ads that try to be funny but come off sort of weird...The "I'm Korean" ad you posted, is just another attempt to be humorous and reach out to consituents--but I'd say that Koreans in Southern California might be slightly questioning his judgement on that one, not that the ad's that offensive or anything... Don't take it personal Island Trawler...

I look at it from the standpoint of...If it had been a white politician telling white people to 'stick together', various minority pimp groups, the media, civil rights lawyers, and political adversaries, etc. would be eating his lunch!



It's all about double standards... Minorities can form groups and join politics based on the issues facing their particular ethnic group, but whites, another ethnic group, are not allowed to do the same.

He's a white former Disney executive trying to get some extra publicity with viral videos to attract attention to his campaign. "The minorities should stick together" line repeated by the old stereotypical Korean woman is meant to be humorous--as is the line at the end, "Let's send a mensch to Washington" and the Korean woman replying "What's a mensch." The commercial comes off as awkward, but it's just a goofy attempt at publicity.

There's over 22 million white people in California.

There's over 22 million white people in California.
I.e. about the same as the entire population of Texas or Australia.

In fact 80% of the CA population north of the Golden Gate Bridge is non-Latino white, and adding Latino whites to that total would make the percentage over 90%

While there is no big CA city that's still majority non-Latino white, San Francisco is non-Latino white plurality. Even Oakland, the most diverse city in the entire state (and perhaps the most diverse in the nation), is 25% non-Latino white. Even L.A. County is something like 30% non-Latino white. Those figures may seem small to Island Trader but they constitute a large number of people.

So a Jew made a movie about a group of stereotypical Koreans hanging out at the laundromat. How can he get away with that, much less expect these same Koreans to vote for him?

Again, I ask, what if a white, non-Jew had made a commercial about some other ethnic group? Like blacks hanging out in front of a gas station or Mexicans in a strawberry field?

California has 37,253,956 people, of which only 40.1% are non-Hispanic white. That means there are only 14,938,836 white non-Hispanics in California. It is public knowledge that California has been shedding its white middle class for the last decade...guess you missed the memo. Last year, just as white liberals in California were rejoicing at their new minority status, it was revealed that 70% of California's youth were Hispanic/Latino, so in 20 or 30 years, the demographics of California will be as lop-sided as South Africa.

When have the majority of Californians been raised in California? Most have been from somewhere else throughout the state's history. People born and raised in CA are a minority except for north of the Bay Area.

And what I said about CA north of SF remains true. 80% white north of the Golden Gate Bridge. Southern CA is not all of CA.
