28:55 Perhaps it was fitting that in the moments that Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam first came under fire late last week for a yearbook photograph portraying two men in racially insensitive manners–one in blackface, the other donning Ku Klux Klan robes–former Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Julian Castro was the first 2020 Democrat hopeful to call on Northam to resign.

Castro was out with a statement before any of his 2020 rivals—declared or considering—and was perhaps the boldest, directly calling on Northam to resign immediately.

I’ve said it before, but there is genuine propospect of Trump Winning over 50% of the Black vote in 2020.

He is bringing jobs, propersity and respect to Black Communities in a way no president I’m history has

Black men respect him as a tough and virile Alpha Male

even his party’s nomination.

Yeah. That's what we need. More "propersity" from the "propospect" of Trump.

Take me to your leader.

Mayor of San Antonio in which the city manager has the real power, and a Cabinet Secretary of a department that's unconstitutional and riddled with corruption and misuse.

Yes. The Castro Bros Mommy is a Commie....

....His mother helped found a radical, anti-white, socialist Chicano party called La Raza Unida (literally “The Race United”) that sought to create a separate country—Aztlan—in the Southwest. “What we hoped to do back then was to create a nation within a nation,” he told the Denver Post in 2001.

He only needs 20%.

I hope he gets it.

But the Media propaganda machine is strong in the Black community.

This whole story about his racism was promoted to get the abortion story out of the headlines
