In an attempt to stave off a civil war in the ranks, Democratic leaders are scrambling to unite behind a candidate for the party's chairmanship – and have landed for now on a Louis Farrakhan-linked congressman who once called for Dick Cheney’s impeachment and compared George W. Bush to Hitler.
...
Yet it isn’t the only controversy for Ellison. In 2007, Ellison made a comparison between Bush and 9/11 to Hitler and the 1933 Reichstag fire.
"9/11 is the juggernaut in American history and it allows... it's almost like, you know, the Reichstag fire,” Ellison said, according to a Daily Telegraph report at the time. “After the Reichstag was burned, they blamed the Communists for it, and it put the leader of that country [Hitler] in a position where he could basically have authority to do whatever he wanted."

A really bad idea - so, I hope they chose him :)
Appointing a Muslim to be DNC chairman won’t be very harmful to the Democrats as it should be. Most Americans neither know nor care who the heads of the National Committees are. Debbie Wasserman Schultz was the last DNC head, and I doubt that 5% of American voters would even recognize her name.
Democrats reaching to rebuild their party, so, they look for Keith Ellison to come to their rescue.
And, with Ellison’s help in getting enough Muslim votes, the democrats will be a shoo-in to take back the presidency and the house of representatives and the senate and the supreme court.
Democrats sure are smart. They know exactly why they lost, and they’re doing the right thing this time around. Trump will be quaking in his boots four years hence.
Can any party, or anybody, be more out of touch with the American people?
Even Allah is laughing at the stupidity of the democrats.
They are grooming this kook. I always said that if the Dems had been smart they would have ditched the old white lady and picked another radical muslim young black guy who has zero experience and hung out with racist radical nut jobs, then they would again control the white house forever. And they will.
Just thank God that they only realized this after the election so we do get at least 4 years of sanity. Had they figured it out 6 months ago this racist kook or whatever young black guy they would have chosen would now be president.
Let him go, it’ll get him out of the HoR.
and because liberals are such friggin idiots in washington- he will likely get the position too-
yeah, putting a mooselimb in a high position within the dem party should really help them turn around their elector slump.
Nice..?? I've never been accused of that....
