Only his blind followers. After a while, you sort of get the impression that he can't find something substantial to say for his next program, so he goes with the first thing that pops into his head. Thought, rationality, consideration--these are evidently not major concerns of his.
wow.. I just have to love the racism from you all. thinking that speaking about unity of all races is thoughtless, irrational, and inconsiderate.
if you cannot understand the horrible history of the "term" colored and how it was hurtful to black people in America, then you really are quite insensitive and ignorant of this country's history. It's not being PC. It's a painful reminder of segregation, jim crow, and kids being killed for being "colored."

The Beckster is irrelevant, his MASSIVE rally in Israel that he has been touting for the past
year drew less than 2000 people, he is washed up.
you certainly spent an exhorbitant amount of time posting about people you consider 'washed up' and 'irrelevant.'
