Translation: This will open the eyes of some black people, and we can't have that!!
"...massive investments in public education and job training programs..."
Does Luke have ANY IDEA how much the federal, state and local governments spend every year on those two things?

So if Ted can get 40% of the Hispanic vote and increase his share of the black vote, this is racist.... not getting minority votes is apparently racist too
can’t win situation I guess

Attempt to drive racial wedge? Ha! See Obama for that skill. Immigration is about respecting our laws.

Isn't one of Alinsky's stratagems to accuse your enemy of what you yourself are doing?

I’ve noticed a trend lately where liberal writers propose things that liberals have been trying and failing at for years as “new” solutions” to problems They truly are bankrupt of ideas.

"The great warrior for racial justice may not be aware that the economic literature shows that immigrants actually dont rob other groups of jobs, despite what many conservatives cynically claim." Yeah, the laws of Supply and Demand have been suspended. Massive new supply of low-skill illegal (hispanic) labor does not drive down the price the of low-skill legal (black) labor.
Idiot. Econ 101 Fail.

So the left calls it racism when someone else is pointing out racial disparities.

Hey Luke, Big Government couldn’t prevent Ferguson from being set alight.
What makes you think it can nurture a decent, kinder and gentler human being? You must be smoking crack.
Please explain how eradicating institutional inequities in the criminal justice system, massive investments in public education and job training programs, public works projects, and beefed-up enforcement of policies that aim to combat workplace discrimination - will bring all that about in the future.

Only a child could expect a thinking adult to read this sentence and accept it at face value. Where's the supporting material and who wrote it, you assinine little Democrat bootlicker?

This is where the conservative party starts (like the UKIP in Britain). After 2014 mid terms where they immediately RINOed out. You are witnessing history.

Amnesty is fundamentally unfair to the millions of legal immigrants who followed the rules and came here legally, Cruz said, per Talking Points Memos Daniel Strauss. Amnesty is fundamentally unfair to the 92 Americans who arent working here right now. Amnesty is fundamentally unfair to the African American community thats facing historic unemployment. Well said.
Naturally, the truth is intolerable to the Simpering Sodomites of Salon.
