The next Democratic National Committee leader needs to reflect the diversity of America, said Symone Sanders, former press secretary for Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign and a CNN contributor.

“In my opinion, we don’t need white people leading the Democratic Party right now,” she told CNN’s Brianna Keilar Wednesday on Wolf. “The Democratic Party is diverse, and it should be reflected as so in our leadership and throughout the staff at the highest levels from the vice chairs to the secretaries all the way down to the people working in the offices at the DNC,” Sanders added.

Because identity politics is what the Rust Belt is interested in. Just more Marxist smoke and mirrors.

Pray America woke

“Identity politics combined with political correctness has become a weapon against freedom.”

In a nutshell.

I am doing my best to reach out to the 20 somethings by explaining to them how the news is lying about Trump. That he is not so bad ..wait and see.
And a lot of them are willing to give him a chance.
Btw you really can see how the left’s misinformation campaign really works. Which is a good opportunity to dispell many of the leftist lies.

I agree wholeheartedly.
Let affirmative action do for the DNC what it has done for the rest of the country.

We’re having a white Thanksgiving. Did you see this thread?

It’s been snowing for 38 hours in Syracuse — and we’re at almost 20 inches

Ouch. It was 80 today, one of the coolest days I can remember. November, December and January are the coolest months. April has blistering heat, the hottest month of the year. I much prefer April in California, than here. 😀😆😄

The leadership of the Demonicrat Party will be what it has been for the last four decades - traitors to the U.S. - since the Demonicrats established genocidal murder of persons of the womb and crimes against humanity as part of their party’s platform.

Let them win EVERY vote in CA, NY, MA & IL and it makes no difference. They can run up their vote totals in those states, which they did this election, and still come up losers.

Live by the diversity sword. Die by the diversity sword.

I like this. It puts into effect an Alinsky tactic of making the enemy live up to their own set of rules.

You might be right. Has anyone equated excessive emoticons with global warming yet? 😀😆😄😃🇵🇭 If not, someone will eventually.
