I was curious tonight, so for the first time I decided to sneak a peak at Romney-Hood's website.
Under Issues/ Latin America. He basically talks about how Iran is a problem weird right.
So moving on to his communities link
He has a link for
Asian American's Pacific Islanders
Catholics
Women
Juntos Con Romney
Jews
Veterans
Farmers
Young Repugs
Lawyers and
Polish people
But African Americans are not in his "community"
This has always been my biggest complaint/ concern with republicans when they speak they are not trying engage me in the conversation
Me being of partly African American decent.
Now personally I don't want a President the divides Americans up by groups and race but if you are going to do that include all the groups and all the races.
His Slogan is "America's comeback team" why do I get the feeling that, it's code for a certain race in America and not ALL Americans.
Or do African Americans just not matter to Rmoney because he figures we are going to cast our vote for the "black guy"?

(62,444 posts)Beyond "why try because they will vote for the black guy", you are neglecting the welcome to some who notice the absence.
Because a good part of his base would see such a link as a betrayal of their "principles".
