Only 7 minorities spotted at RNC!

[Bennyboy]

Over on another board that I frequent, they were counting the number of minorities seen in the crowd. The count totaled seven. "Black guy spotted, 10:46pm" was the first sighting.

And one FREEPER with a sign that read: "Democrots for McCain". Someone has to have captured this I hope.

4. are you counting the news reporters too?

Cause otherwise, I only counted five minorities. Unless you count old, fat, dimwit, boring white fools, in which case there were thousands.

I'm shocked at such a big number!

6. Only one I saw

was McCain's adopted daughter. And since she isn't old enough to vote yet she doesn't count.

9. Blacks represent just 2 percent of GOP convention delegates.

There are just 36 black delegates at this week’s Republican National Convention, “fewer than 2% of the total and a sharp drop-off from 2004,” when 6.7 percent were black.

At last week’s Democratic National Convention, 24.5 percent of delegates were black. Recent polls show that about nine out of 10 black voters support Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL).

11. R delegates of color must be delusional, but I'm glad they are there. Just imagine

how openly racist some Republicans might be off-camera if they had to face absolutely NO minorities in their midst.
