"The president played the race card and he had the nerve to come before the National Urban League and ask for your help and your support," Dean was quoted as saying by the Washington Times."

"Former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean, who was governor of a state where more than nine of every 10 residents are white, drew murmurs and scattered applause when he promised to make a case for race relations not just to the(NAACP) convention but to white people across the country. ''It takes a white leader to stand up and explain to my people about why racism is wrong,'' Dean said."

On the stump, Dean has made a point of expressing his desire to appeal to people across the political spectrum. "I want to go to the South, and I'm going to say to white guys that drive pick-up trucks with Confederate flag decals on the back of their car, 'We want your vote, too, because your kids don't have health insurance either,' " he said at the California State Democratic Convention.

. . .detect more than a little prejudice in 'profiling' here. Who the h-ll do they think they are talking to?

These Dems cannot help themselves as they trip over their own arrogance and ignorance.

They can never 'get it'. . .because they simply are what they speak.

Well, bless his heart. Isn't that special? How thoughtful of him to condescend to speak to us southerners with Confederate flags on our vehicles. I hope this sissy boy comes prepared for a well deserved attitude adjustment.

Fishing for democrat votes. The hand-out crowd. If he becomes a national contender I suspect he will need to change the bait.
