Why does the MSM forget that blacks are also blue collar workers?

[bermudat]

Obama is already getting the blue collar, lunch pail, rural American votes. They just happen to be black.

Why is that being overlooked? The code words used by cable news, Lanny Davis et. al. is disgusting and

insulting. So blue collar voters hate being called 'bitter' by Obama, but don't mind being called stupid by the

Clinton camp? Interesting.

1. because "blue collar" is a code word for something not blue collar.

Gee whiz, I wonder what it could be.

2. You said it perfectly. nt

3. Blue collar workers come in all shades

Black, white, brown, yellow and everything in between. When they say "blue collar workers" what they really mean are "bigots" and I have no respect for anyone who panders to the bigot vote!

Hillary ... what has happened to you? :shrug:

4. Bowling For Columbine explained it pretty well

A primary goal of the media is to make all dark skinned people appear scary to white people.

5. I've been frustrated about that for a while

In 2006, I worked with the union leadership in Philadelphia for a few days, and most of the leaders and rank and file members of the blue collar unions that I met were black. And while Obama supporters will hate me for saying this, I think that might have been why Clinton added "white" this morning after saying "hard-working Americans" - to clarify that she meant the majority of hard-working white people were supporting her, not the majority of all hard-working people. If she hadn't added "white" it might have sounded like she was saying his African American supporters (or her Latino supporters, for that matter) don't work hard.

6. Ummm black people don't work

Didn't you get that memeo? :sarcasm:
