“But O’Rourke, tall, handsome, white and male, has this latitude, to be and do anything. His privilege even allows him to turn a loss to the most despised candidate of the cycle into a launching pad for a White House run.
Stacey Abrams, a Yale-trained lawyer, couldn’t do this.
O’Rourke is being criticized for his randomness. For his TMI’ing and for his “what do I want to do with my life” aimlessness.
But the fact that he knows he has the freedom to cast about as a campaign-in-waiting forms, shows how much of his political identity is predicated on being white and male.”

Poor Nakia, she justcan’t think logically under the continuing Magic Negro Obama effect. If you are white , male, and privileged, you should not run for president! Heck, you shouldn’t even be a Democrat....go join the GOP!
Hey, we need to thank Black Female Nia-Malika Henderson, Senior Political Reporter at CNN for helping the GOP membership drive!
Right there, just next to the cheap shot at Cruz. Isn't that the bigotry of low expectations?
Who's to say that Abrams - or Gillum - couldn't mount an equally half-witted presidential campaign?
