8. I met Mr. Jones some years ago. 
 From my perspective and the conversation we had, I can say without a doubt, he is certainly no republican. 
  Sure ya did.  And if you did, you mean he was a decent and civilized person?  That would be a conservative.

11. Ahh... good to hear.
 It really would be hard to think an African American of his generation, reputation and stature would be a fan of what passes for a Republican today.

10. Don't believe everything
 you read these days. There is a big push to get minorities to join the repug party. And you know they think that all people of minority or ethnic backgrounds think the same. Why do you think Micheal Steele is head (he thinks he's head we know its Rush Limpdick) of the RNC
  You don't even need me to comment.

22. I watched an interview with him about 10 years ago.
 I don't remember most of it, or who it was with. What stuck in my mind was that he stated that yes, he was indeed a republican. Most of his family were republicans. Lincoln republicans. That's how he put it.
  At which point everyone wandered away whimpering.

Liberals are racist.

I once had a dream that some network gave a political talk show to a black guy named George Sherman who turned out to be in the Walter Williams, Thomas Sowell mold and he kicked Oprah's butt in the ratings.

lol.

I bet such a show would too. I think the show was called "Opinion!" with an exclamation mark.

Dang they need to let me run a TV network.

OK so we have denial that a favored minority is Republican. I wonder how they feel about Mildred Fernandez, front runner for Mayor of Orlando getting busted for fraud and bribery last night. She's Puerto Rican and Republican to boot.

Now with an arrest record I expect a party switch any time now.  :-)

Actually she was running for mayor of Orange County, but now she could run for mayor of Orlando, where crooked is part of the job description. :-)

She would be the most honest politician in the race if she ran for any office in Chicago.  The good people of Florida generally take a narrower view of such behavior.
