Obviously there are a lot of people who think this guy is a total yahoo.

"Mysterious black people just came out of mist and voted. They were so mysterious that the poll workers were mesmerized and allowed them to vote." and then the reply "They have a way about them, you know"

voters that could vote at that poll. At mine, they mark that I was about to vote. I think they would have said something if someone had used my name by telling me that I have already voted.

They must be new to the voting scene. We in Arkansas have it down to where only the newly dead can vote, if the dead miss a federal election (or 2) they have to re-register. Maybe they are worried because they never pull people from the rolls and the party in power get to use the dead to keep them in power.

...and you couldn't pay me enough to ever vote for a any Republican in the future (not that I have in past, mind you).

I cannot imagine how anyone black must feel hearing these types of remarks. The aggressive show of pure hatred-fueled racism in this election year by the Republicans is appalling on every level.

What the fuck is wrong with old white men in this country? (if anyone on here is male, elderly and white, I'm not talking about you)

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
