Welcome to the beginning of the Presidential election season; be sure to get ready for the racists to come out and say their piece.
Donald Trump, who pressed the birther issue until President Obama actually came out and showed his birth certificate publicly (Note to Big Media: see how easy that was?), is now trying to openly investigate the president's educational background. The cries of him being a racist were sporadic before, but now they are widespread.
Mitt Romney, who made a reference to Jimmy Carter's stagflation being hung around his neck by the Reagan campaign, and how he was planning to hang the same charge around Obama's neck during the campaign has evoked the images of public lynching of persons of color by many casual observers.
Does anyone remember all the bright, enlightened, people that said Prez GWB's educational history was suspect (as was his military career), his foreign policies were being ran by others, and that burning and hanging GWB in effigy was just a matter of political speech?
Frankly, Trump's rhetoric is strident and provocative, but fails to throw race into the equation. Mitt, who has suffered slings and arrows from Big Media himself for his religious beliefs (Mormonism), is a general, all-around nice guy who didn't even notice he had made a comment that could have put his presidential aspirations in trouble-- not because it had even a tinge of racism, but because it showed he cannot actually be color-blind in today's society where many see racism quicker than Senator McCarthy, 60 years ago, had ever seen communism. Those who inject racism into such commentary are among the biggest racists of our age.

It has been my experience in life, that only racist, speak about racism. Also, I love Donald Trump. He knows how to make money. Leadership is not a popularity contest. We live in a Capitalistic society. Let the business men run it.
Liberals always Trump the Racist card when they are losing a cause.
Why don't they blame the person who started the birther issue. Guess Who a liberal Dem Hillary!!!!!!!!!!!!
