If memory serves me correctly, South Carolina didn’t vote for Herman Cain in 2012 GOP primary. In January of 2012 that vote went to Newt Gingrich, while Herman Cain has already dropped out of the presidential race in early December 2011 (and it was not because of his glib and flashy but poorly thought out and shallow 9-9-9 campaign plan).
However, South Carolina Republicans have proved that they are “racist” when they elected Tim Scott to serve in Congress, first in the House of Representatives in 2010 and 2012, and is currently the only black U.S. Senator (and first from The South since Reconstruction) after being appointed to replace retired Jim DeMint in 2013.
It doesn’t get any more “racist” than that, does it?
Wow, I blew that one for sure. I don’t know what happened to my memory bank. No more trusting to memory.
