Could you please quote an example of a racist rant by Mr. Buchanan?

I already posted what I considered to be racist rants... go find it..Freepers should be able to read.

Basically, I believe they are rants...because the majority will not listen to him and I believe they are racists because he highlights racial distinctions and racial issues. It would be great if he could present his facts and stats in a way that would muster all Americans together, which then would FORCE our politicians to make changes.

It is ironic then when one finds racism to be generally much more pronounced in just about all ethnic groups outside of European-Americans. Your color blind values are virtually shunned by most Mexicans, Asians, Japanese, Middle Easterners, Indians, Persians, you name it. The reality is that only Westerners believe in the concept of a color blind society. And racism cannot be something that only European-Americans are guilty of when the exact reverse is far truer. Yet, to hear those who like to toss around the race card, only Americans of European decent could ever be guilty of racism. You better start taking a closer look at the attitudes of those pouring into this country from all directions and find out what they really think about Americans before reflexively pulling your race card.

Could you please quote an example of a racist rant by Mr. Buchanan?      I already posted what I considered to be racist rants... go find it..Freepers should be able to read.      (Thank you very much, obviously Freepers can read...but I am not the one charging him with a racist rant, you are...so the burden of proof, or at the very least, any sort of evidence at all, is yours.)       Basically, I believe they are rants (again, kindly supply the quotes.  If you posted them once before, how hard is it to post them again, to back up your charge?)     ...because the majority will not listen to him (the refusal or failure of the majority to listen to any certain person is indicative of nothing in particular...nor is it any indicator of either the rightness or wrongness of the ideas that person expresses.)     and I believe they     ("they" being who?)     are racists because he highlights racial distinctions and racial issues    (please supply a quote to illustrate this...and no, it's not my burden to go look it up, it's your burden to back up your own point)    It would be great if he could present his facts and stats in a way that would muster all Americans together (not even the murder of over 3,000 Americans on 9/11 did that, but one man can?  You expect too much of one man, and label him a racist in the process.), which then would FORCE our politicians to make changes.  (You agree with him then? If you sought to confuse me, you have success.)
