Hate to burst your bubble but Democrats have Cory Booker and Kamala Harris while Republicans have Tim Scott.

Democrats have 66% of total black senators.

Edit: I cant believe no one has realized that by now.

Tim Scott is blacker than those two combined.
A half-black Democrat is more black than a "pure" black Republican.

Scott was appointed to that seat and had the advantage of incumbency when an election rolled around, so he sort of had a boost that Booker and Harris did not have.

Since 2006, five minority Republicans have been elected Governor - four of them have been re-elected already. Only two Democrats were elected Governor, Patrick and Ige.

What the hell does being "more black" even mean?

Most Black Democratic politicians make very little effort to reach out to voters that aren't Black, so they make terrible statewide or national candidates.

Obama and Booker are exceptions to the rule. The fact that Obama went from State Senator to US president in 4 years shows how much of an exception he is. Do you really think he would have been promoted that quickly had there been a bigger bench of acceptable Black candidates?

I will never understand how Tim Scott can identify and associate with the party that is now screaming white supremacy. That's like me as a gay man joining the American Family Association.

Source?  Haven't seen the RNC endorsing White supremacy recently.

Who is screaming white supremacy? Other than Trump who is just stupid what leading figure in our party is promoting white supremism? Even Trump doesn't promote it he just seems to tolerate it (which is of course horrible and wrong).

I've heard that if Orrin Hatch and Mitt Romney bow out of the 2018 Senate election in Utah, Mia Love might run.

If she ran and won the nomination (and thus the general election because its Utah), she'd be the first black senator from Utah, the first female black Republican senator in the nation, and the first Haitian-American senator of any kind.

GOP candidates aren't dog-whistled.

Otherwise Harold Ford would likely be an incumbent who got lucky Hillary lost, no Bob Corker shenanigans at all.

Silly. Those are Democrats, who supported slavery, seceded, and created the KKK. Also, political parties never ever (EVER) change.

Please inform us how these few racist a**holes speak for the RNC, which was what the poster asked, or the Republican Party as a whole.

Please explain how the party that passed resolutions condemning white supremacy ENDORSES THE PIECES OF S***.

Look at the numerous studies on Republicans' racial resentment. My attempts to get Republicans and their alt-leftist enablers to consider them haven't worked before, but it's worth a shot.

They don't even show that some "overwhelming majority" support racism or the alt-right or whatever else you love to believe.

The fact that either of you thought your responses made an ounce of sense given what I posted shows how dumb you both are, LOL.
