Oh please. I am so sick and tired of Liberal victimhood and accusations of racism. WAH WAH WAH, those meanie Republicans are picking on Susan Rice because she is a black female. NO YOU IDIOTS, Susan Rice is nothing more than an echo chamber for the lying, Marxist White House. Is David Axelrod black? How about that Clapper idiot? Why wasn't Clapper sent out to the Sunday talk shows? Because he is a white male who would have to be held accountable for his incompetence because he couldn't claim status as VICTIM? Great! So this joke of an administration surrounds itself with women and women of color so it can cry RACISM instead of being held accountable. Christine Romer, Anita Dunn, Kathleen Sebelius, Nancy Piglosi, Janet Napolitano, Barbara Don't Call Me Ma'M Boxer, Hilarious Klintonista, Debbie Blabbermouth Schultz - all pathetic FEMALE Democrat representatives who are WHITE.

This isn't the first time I've heard this, this is the left's usual attack against the GOP, but the caller went on to make the point that every Republican was a worthless racist and he wouldn't even vote for one for dog-catcher.

Listening to the vehemence in the caller's voice it occurred to me that maybe it's time for the GOP to take a page out of the Obama playbook. Since 93% of the black vote went to Obama, and the Obama campaign made the decision to sucessfully abandon the white working class The Future of the Obama Coalition - NYTimes.com it's time for the GOP to do the same thing and give up on the black community.

Since Obama has sucessfully divided this country along racial lines creating rifts that will probably last generations, I suggest the GOP forget the black vote and pursue the Latino vote instead. In my daily interactions with the Latino community I see a hard-working entrepenurial class that is family-friendly and conservative by instinct, but is put off by the GOP's embrace of strict immigration policies, thus easily seduced by any baubles the Democrats dangle in front of them.

That would mean abandoning the Sheriff Joe Arpaio types and alienating a segment of the vote, but IMO it would easily be made up by an influx of Latino votes.
don't forget the 'code words,' like 'incompetent.'

We will work to show our young men that being a true Father and leader of your home is the COOLEST thing you can do.

So to the OP go ahead with this plan. It will only push us to destroy the elements of corrosion inside our own community and that is a good thing.
Oh yes. That makes sense. That's why Republicans like Condoleeza Rice, Herman Cain, Col. Allen West, Dr. Thomas Sowell, Clarence Thomas, Mia Love, Artur Davis, Lloyd Marcus (un-hyphenated American) are all so hated by the Republicans.

What open hostility? The GOP is just reacting to reality, Blacks have shown no indication that they'll vote for the GOP. George Bush Jr did the best among Blacks for a GOP candidate and he received a whopping 11%. Most people when they vote for president they vote based on their economic conditions. By any objective measure Blacks actually fared worse under Obama's four years, it's because of this the Romney campaign did not believe B lack turnout would be out in force for Obama.

Yet economic concerns were pushed aside by Blacks and most voted for Obama because he was supposedly being picked on by mean racist Republicans.

Romney visited the NAACP and inner city Philly he received frosty reception early on. Maybe if he received a more polite response he would have campaigned more in Black areas. I think a lot of times Black folks think there are no repercussions to actions. If you act irrationally irate when a GOP candidate campaigns in your area stand to reason he may not come back.

Oh yes we all know that all republicans are that way. LMAO. Ignorance must be bliss. You are loaded with it. Talk about living in a bubble. My God.

The funniest part of the OP is the idea that it's somehow Obama that divided the races in the US. Not Stonewall Jackson, not Woodrow Wilson, not Lester Maddox, not even Charles Stuart. Nope, it was Obama, by...saying that there's no Black America and White America, apparently.

ETA: In any case, the modern GOP has spent, literally, decades howling about how black people love welfare, don't want to work, hate education, don't care about black people being killed by other black people, and other obviously racist drivel. Sorry, guys, but you have thoroughly lost the benefit of the doubt on this one, and you haven't really done anything to get it back. So when we see you using a ridiculous conspiracy theory to attack yet another black Obama administrator (as you did with Van Jones, Holder, and Sherrod among others), I'll just move to the obvious assumption, and leave it to you to disprove it.
