Tea party favorites for president include Herman Cain and Allen West, both 100% black vs Obama at 50/50. Also Marco Rubio is of Cuban parents.
After reading post after post after post from the left, as well as story after story after story by the mainstream media either blatantly calling the tea party racist or heavily implying it, why is it that they are more than happy to support blacks and hispanics?

the tea party as a whole cant be labeled as racist. people who do that are lazy and will just throw a generalization to portray what they want to portray.
having said that, i don't like we, us and them. never have liked those words.
when some in the movement say we need to take our country back from them, and the same people who are saying that are 99 percent white, and its directed towards a black man in obama, you see the definition of We(white) vs. them(black) in the minds of some tea party members, which is where some elements of racism reside in the tea party.
granted, most of the us and them talk is democrat and republican babble, there have been instances of people using the us vs. them to create a movement based on race.
one of the guys who claimed to have founded the tea party, be an original member or whatever, the one who got fired for his comments, is one who played the race card in the we vs. them crap.
i dont think there are any more racists in the tea party than in the general population.
and i dont think there are any fewer racists in the tea party than in the general population.
that logic would explain why a majority would back a black candidate, as race isn't a determining factor to most of the country.
so why would it be any more or less in the tea party?

Exactly. I'm so sick of being labeled a racist. So far, my fave is Herman Cain! It should be interesting to see how all this plays out if a 100% black conservative man goes up against a 50% black liberal idiot.
Maybe we are so dumb we don't know that they are not white? Just a guess. lol
Just a mediterrean tan hey!
