I am a libertarian so I would probably never vote for any of this folks. But I can only say so what? Its not illegal (at least yet) to be white and care about your country.

Why does this concern you?

There are 20 devout socialists and communists running in Texas alone including someone named Ali Khorasani who is part of the communist party of Houston and that really concerns me as it should most sane Americans. The fact there is a communist party of Houston concerns me.

Hehe I call nonsense here.

The Ku Klux Klan was the first identity politics group in this country.

And quite frankly they would be the first clear and cut example. Identity politics is as old as this nation.

If anyone actually took time to study (and not just sources that confirm what they like hearing) they’d notice the framers were in constant disagreement about how the new nation should be ran, what should be written into the constitution and so forth.

I find it very scary but they feel emboldened with Trump as president. Republicans are shunning them so hopefully everyone else will do the same.

If you can find some who actually are calling for hatred against whites, sure. But other than the New Black Panther Party (according to the SPLC), and a few marginal nutjobs like Kamau Kambon, I'm all for you calling them out. But keep in mind that focusing on BLM and similar such groups are not gonna be a very productive task in that regard.

MY APOLOGIES for this gross error. I was not paying attention. No excuse for it.

So blind. Lois Farrakhan, one of Obama's friends, calls for death and destruction on white America every single time he opens his mouth. And his hate group "The Nation of Islam" sucks up all the hate Farrakhan spouts. You really need to quit relying on Google to be your brain.

At least 8 white nationalists running for federal office

If we can have black racists, Hispanic racists, gays, lesbians, atheists, agnostics, Christians, Muslims etc., why not?

I thought America accepted EVERYONE and EVERYONE should be represented in Congress.

Segregation was outlawed with the Civil Rights Act many decades ago.

Do you want to go BACK to the "old days"?
