1. There are millions of people mad as hell that we TWICE elected that Black guy, I mean they
are just ****ing FUMING mad.
Remember they wanted to string him up for putting his feet on his desk.
They hate him, they are racists, nothing more to it.
The mad as hell Americans, and there are what, 40-50 million of them? All white, are gonna show up and vote.
I know this screws up rr1's universe and sends him scurrying to scream the "Race Traitor" defense, but of the 4 leading R candidates, one is black, and two are Hispanic. rr1 is so ignorant that he probably doesn't even know that the Rs have had a significant black candidate in two fairly recent primary campaigns, not counting Dr. Carson or Herman Cain (the latter suspended his campaign before any primaries or caucuses), let alone his name.
As for this R, as rr1 knows, he also being from CA, CA's primary is almost always irrelevant, being held in June. So my vote is only a symbol, and CA's ballot may not have all the candidates still in the race at this point. That said, if they are both still on the ballot, my choice would be between Carson and Cruz, neither of whom are "white".
Living where he does, rr1 is pretty isolated from most of CA and OR (>1 hour drive to Eureka, 2-3 hours drive to Redding, neither of which are particularly huge); he's far more isolated from the real life people he hates and imagines he knows and understands.
ETA: Forgot to mention in my first paragraph above that I voted for that gentleman in both of the primaries in which he was a candidate. I agreed with his views; his skin color was irrelevant to my choice.
