"Out of touch" Rude Paul: Bringing up GOP voter suppression ‘demeans’ Civil Rights movement

[ashling]

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) accused a black Howard University student of demeaning the civil rights movement by bringing up recent GOP efforts to limit voting accessibility.

“The Republican Party has been using their state legislators and their governments to prevent African-Americans from voting, because they didn’t want to re-elect President Obama.” said the student, Julian Lewis, a former White House intern under President Barack Obama. “So I’m asking you, how can we believe what you’re saying in regards to voting rights when we honestly feel, based on our intellectual ability to gauge whether you can connect with us or not, how can you say that, sir?”

1. Sure.

I'm sure you care so much about us black folk, Rand Paul! Unless we want to sit at a lunch counter.
Black people will not vote republican until all the racist run back to the Democratic Party.
