(Jacksonville, Fla.)—Thursday evening the opening of the new Minority Headquarters for Duval County Republicans drew an overflow crowd so packed we were shoulder to shoulder. People came in all colors and nationalities to celebrate meeting a goal that began more than a year ago. The headquarters will be operated by the Joseph E. Lee Club. Darcell Streeter, project co-chair, emceed the program.
Streeter welcomed dignitaries like Jacksonville Sheriff John Rutherford, Florida State Rep. Jennifer Carroll (Dist.13), Alci Maldonado, Chair of the Republican National Hispanic Assembly and others. Streeter said, “This is not just the opening.” She said the headquarters represents a partnership for development, outreach and leadership—“to advance the principles and beliefs of this great Republican Party.”

So: is the other office then the “White Headquarters?”
That would be the obvious conclusion to be drawn here.
Keep it going. We need conservatives. We don’t care, whether they come in white, brown or black.
Totally agreed. We can certainly emphasize how conservatism meshes with the cultural values of various sub-communities without "pandering" or playing racial politics.
The black and Hispanic communities are generally very conservative socially -- they just need to be shown that their values are more shared by conservatives than they are by liberals. It's a hard sell, because so many of them have been brought up to believe the exact opposite, despite its falsity.
Remember to keep out the louses like Crist, Greer, Martinez, etc..
