Tim Scott wins US Senate race and is 1st black to win statewide in SC since Reconstru

Re: Tim Scott wins US Senate race and is 1st black to win statewide in SC since Recon

All the excitement that republicans have over two black senators shows how far behind they are with the rest of the country.

WELCOME TO THE 21ST CENTURY !!!!!!

There have been numerous black republicans elected to congress.

Just not in these particular states. Makes it note worthy, and also worth mentioning in the realm of "republicans are racist" discussion

If republicans were racist, generally speaking wouldnt it be impossible for a black female to be elected in the whitest state in the union?

Perhaps republicans focus on the issues and not on the color of ones skin. A stark contrast from democrats.

Token? What makes you call him that? Are you saying he's not qualified to be a Senator?

He was elected because of white guilt :D

No because it is a pretty known fact that you can just vote just on party line and keep going.

It's amazing how racist some can be when accusing others and whole groups and political parties as racist.

Tim Scott was elected because in the time he has held that office, as an appointee to finish the term, he has impressed every South Carolinian who was paying attention as a man of character and one we are proud to have as a Senator, regardless of the color of his skin.

It offends me to hear him called a "token", as if he is not worthy of his position and only holds it due to being black. One wonders if this is not just another case of projection, where people project their own shortcomings onto others without cause.

One doesn't wonder even a teensy little bit, Goshin.

I have a dream that one day, the black vote will go to whomever supports legalization of marijuana instead of party affiliation. :lol:

Dude I was joking. I was making fun of republicans when they said white people voted for Obama because of white guilt.


Personally as a black man, I am proud of him and Mia for what they did. However, as a democrat I can't stand their policies. As a note, you say that you get offended well I hope you were offended when people on the right called Obama the first Affirmative Action president.

Like I told Goslin. Where was this anger when the right said that white people voted for Obama out of white guilt? I'm sure you was offended to right?

I don't recall anyone saying that.

It was definitely said.

If you say so. I don't think it matters in any case.

Not if I say so. Michelle Bachmann, for one.

OK. You're more interested than I am. I still don't think it matters.
 
Re: Tim Scott wins US Senate race and is 1st black to win statewide in SC since Recon

you never recall this on this website !!!!!!

I don't recall it anywhere; however, if someone else does I don't object. I don't think it's important.

The single greatest threat to our constitution is Hillary Clinton.
