Desperate Government-Controlled Media, following orders from their government-class, globalist masters, looking out for themselves and their own finances-—Hillary is better for the entire Washington Cartel-—bureaucrats, gov controlled media, professional career politicians feeding at the DC trough, educrats. Trump threatens the very existence of the Oligarchy and plutocrats.

Like I said, context. I ain't out bashing Cruz with liberal race-bating claptrap. I've had maybe three criticisms of Cruz - his H-1B position which he has since corrected, and a couple of campaign-related items, one of which is playing this Klan-type crap. I will not stoop to liberal tactics, unlike too many folks lately on FR.

And BTW, Trump NOT giving out a lot of media passes to liberal media organizations is a good change. I have no idea how this outfit got a pass, and I will wait for the Trump campaign's explanation before passing judgement.

They probably will say they’d never heard of him, something incredible like that.

I’m not going to speculate. BTW, I’d never heard of him before today.

Well, we should expect the Trumps to vet these guys before they let them in to their more inner circle. But hey, Trump invited Clinton to his third wedding. Who among us would have done that? He knew what Bill was. Yet he still invited him.

My hope is that Hilary will not repeat Obama’s accomplishments. Obama managed to get millions of new young voters. Hoping that Hilary won't keep them all.

Compare various 2012 vote for various types of congressmenand their districts with the Romney vote.

For example, Tea Party Joe Walsh in NW Chicago burbs was running for re-election. In the rich white burbs he lost heavily, well behind Romney. But in the Hispanic/Black areas he ran well ahead of Romney.

Now why is that? A lot has to do with two factors.
1) People like Allen Skillicorn (now running for St Rep) had a good ground game of well organized door-knockers.
2) The rich snobs were very much aware of the political mistakes made by Walsh and had contempt for his intelligence due to those bone-headed mistakes. The heavily minorty areas were not aware of those mistakes.

Please don’t confuse ghetto blacks with hard working white/blue collar blacks who love this country as much as we do

By the time the election for the turd in the white hut's second term, it was pretty obvious what he was and that he was intent on destroying America (ie fundamentally transform). Nevertheless blacks as a whole voted 93% for him. Now either there are only 7% of blacks who are actually hard working and who love this country as much as we do, or your premise is incorrect.

I got to the part where he was talking about the KKK thing like it was hurting Trump before I quit reading.

“John Podhoretz, just another neo-con. They should go back to the democrat party from whence they came.”

They came from the Trotskyite branch of Lenin’s murderous communist party. They’re traitors and need to be rounded up and shipped one-way to North korea.

“but the ability to paint Trump as an honorary Klansman may do the trick. “

Is there anyone besides the media and some scheming neocons (I repeat myself) who believes their KKK farce?

No one believes it. It's the cynical advancement of a false narrative and they've advanced Trump's discussion about a change in the libel laws.
