So what should we do? Be nasty to minorities? I work with the president's urban outreach program to bring more minorities into the party. I don't judge people by the color of their skin, I judge them in how they treat others.

But you see, that is such a wonderful thing to go 'bring more minorities into the party' -

I don't judge people by the color of their skin

You just did!!! You see, until you and everyone treat all people the same - there is more racism, as in looking at a person for the color of his skin, on the 'feel good' or pandering side of the equation than there is on the side that has tried very hard to put segregation behind them and do not think about people in terms of their color. That kind of rhetoric just sounds so wonderful is so full of racism - this is what is so mind boggling about this. How about we go out and bring 'people' like-minded people into this party - regardless of their color, age, sex, etc.

Everyone says that whether we like it or not, race is an issue - it will be as long as statements like yours are being said with pride. It doesn't have to be an issue - but that attitude keeps in alive.

How about rather than the 'President having a outreach to bring more minorities into the party', he goes to work and takes care of the problems in this country, and make it a better place and I believe he would have all the 'people' of all color we can handle.

I do treat people with the same respect without regard to the color of their skin. I don't think you can handle that I am not a racist.
