I always see people labeling republicans racist by the extreme lefties on this board. my question is simple. what is the benefit of voting for a republican for a racist person? surely there must be a reason.

Because the poor and working class Republican voter believes the party rhetoric that it (the Rep Party) will help the racist person to maintain some of the benefits of "white privilege" which they believe has been diminished by "liberals"

wow, my IQ just dropped 50 points after reading that. if it drops another hundred, it will be only slightly higher than obama's, this is a hard post to reply to because it's not really a coherent thought. you think there are people out there who think that the federal government will give more things to white people because of something called "white privilege?" I am really having a hard time following you.

oh I get it. you're kidding. I get jokes.

[MOD CUT/language] Dems pick a few groups to vilify, rich white, evangelicals, and redneck white trash too name the most regularly used. The rich people represent the rich oppressors. Evangelicals bible thumpers. Rednecks are usually depicted and black hating , KKK loving, cross burning Nazis. Of course their rebel flags in their trailer house windows don't help. Oh well tho.

The point is not that it's racists to go vote republican, but that Republicans ARE racists. Once you go behind that curtain and vote republican you are a racist( and a terrorist...). The dems have long been trying to force that connection. While at the same time sparking class wars between the evil rich and the poor neglected lower class. Has nothing to do with what people really are. Kinda like these tea parties were all racists. Even tho the one I went to was very patriotic and moving.

So sorry man, when you punch the republican ticket, and attend a tea party you become racist, terrorist, and a threat to society. Just like me! WooHoo!

Multiculturalism is strongly supported on the left. On the other hand, the right doesn't embrace it. They are more about "American Culture". What that culture consists of is usually dictated by middle to upper class whites. Just think about how many times you've heard a racist say "This is America. Go back home."

The right has always embraced a single culture for a whole nation. This is the case for all of the right, from moderate Republicans to far right Republicans to fascists.

Most of the labeling are based on what? ahh yeah, disagreement. You see, the Liberal loons have used the race card so much, it lost most of it's credibility.

It used to be when one uses stereotype, derogatory language to describe a race you get labeled as a racist, nowadays, if you disagree with them, you are a racist.

Ohh, and if anybody disagrees with me, you are a racist
