What does any of this have to do with Northam? How about trying to be on topic.

Clearly the dude needs to go. I am sure he is one of the two in the photos but even if he is not its on his school page with his name on it. And I don't get apologizing for the photo and then reversing and saying he was possibly not in the photo. He knows. That is not the kind of thing you forget.


And its real easy to find a couple of somewhat credible people who knew him in the past and have them say he used to use the N word all the time.



But hey if he wants to go the Roy Moore route, good luck.

He tried to link Confederate flags to Republican voters while trying to whitewash this racist Democratic governor.

I pointed out some facts regarding Confederate flag in SC....who was in power when it went up and who was in power when it went down.

Although I don't think he has a "great track record," I don't think he should resign. I'm so tired of "gotcha" politics. Who somebody was 30 years ago isn't necessarily who they are today.

I must say it is satisfying to see these Democrats hoisted on their own petards though. They are the first to accuse everyone else of being "racist" when they are in reality the most racist people out there.

Do you have a link for that? The identity of the website where it is being hosted does not recommend the credibility of that picture.

It shows the Big Switch political theory, which was created and pushed by liberal Democrats for partisan reasons, isn't true.

Here is the Va Gov refusing to shake the black Democrat's hand prior to a debate.

That was one of the meanest and weirdest things that I've seen in a political context. I think most racists would have at least shook his hand for decorum's sake.

The guy I was responding to was wrong on multiple subjects. kept changing his argument to the point that we somehow got here. So your post should be a reply to him, not me.

You previously posted that the governor never refused to shake a black man's hand. I posted the video to prove you wrong.

It is incredible you are posting on this topic but you don't even have basic facts down on the issue.
