Apparently, though some in the GOP have apologized for the Southern strategy, they'll continue to use it. Disgraceful. Anyone who thinks the GOP isn't racist to the core is deluding themselves.

No Rudy, McCain, F Thompson or Romney at the black forum.

I hope you are not delusional about your prejudice againt the GOP!
Why should they attend? The past has always proven that the black community wants handouts rather than being treated as equal.
It just seems arrogant. All of the front-running Democrats did this debate and the Univision one. I'm sure that someone will come in here and clarify the difference between doing what's right (facing an underrepresented crowd dominated by backers of the other party) and being completely focused on winning (kissing ass, making money, and lusting over Cali's electoral votes). Not saying that the second isn't important - maybe the GOP guys view these debates as a lost cause in getting votes next year and want to focus on the votes they can get.
There's got to be more to this than "bigoted GOP intentionally alienates minority voters". I wonder how many Democrats bugged out of any evangelical Christian-sponsored forums.
Thanks for making my point. That was easier than taking candy from a baby.
BTW, do Hispanics all want a handout, too? The GOP frontrunners all skipped that debate, too, causing it's cancellation.

The hispanic forum was different. Who cares about relating to spanish speaking illegal voters? Nearly all legal voters speak English!
I see you're in total lockstep with the national party...
It's my opinion. If it matches the GOP, that is just coincidental.
The demonrats are catering to paople who they shouldn't!
Would you rather elect a candidate speaking to the people as a whole or one just speaking to the portion of the population most likely to vote their way?
Did you miss my point? The Hispanic forum was being translated into spanish. This makes the forum only understandable to spanish speaking people. at least 99.999% of legal voters have a working understanding of english. This is a definate plot to allow people who do not understand english to get in on the debates. This is a waste of time, because a huge percentage of them, if they vote, are ILLEGAL!
If you do not have a working understanding of English, you shouldn't be voting.
Maybe Rudy McRomson didn't show because they gave every candidate equal time.
Man, it would be so much easier if everyone knew English! The dry cleaner would never up my suits again. The landscapers would cut my grass at the length I tell them to - putting green, baby! The busboy at Ruth's Chris could go get me another Glenlivet instead of making me wait for that damn waitress. The janitors at the office would completely understand that the quilted two-ply is only for the executive washroom. Even the guys at the car wash would know to vacuum under both bucket seats in my Land Rover!
That's a ing awesome idea. Let's run with it.
The GOP position wasn't because it was on a Hispanic network, but because the debate would be in Spanish!
Even Newt Gingrich disagrees with you

What part of your ass did you pull that made up stat out of?
. i've tried to be the ass on this forum and this guy beats me every time.
You're right. I pulled that stat out of my ass.
Think about it. Less than 1:100,000 legal voters have a working knowledge of English. Am I right or wrong? Care to show otherwise, or do you just offer personal attacks without support?
I may have pulled the number out of my ass, but you continue to prove yourself the ass!
You know, there is another reason why the GOP shouldn't debate on a forum controlled by black political organizations. They demonize the republicans every chance they get.
I don't know about the rest of you, but I have better places to go than to be around people who will just spin my visit for their own political reasons, especially when they will be against me.
President Bush refused to meet with the NAACP several times for the same reason. All they ever did was criticize him, then they don't understand when he says no to an invite?
How stupid are you liberals anyway?
This has nothing to do with the GOP disliking blacks, but the black leaderships disliking the GOP!
What a stereotyping bigot you are.
Quick to throw around label we are....
In national elections, blacks walk pretty-much in lock-step with Demos, but not all blacks support organizations like the NAACP....if fact, there are some richer blacks who would support a Republican if the candidate showed that he was also sympathetic to black issues....say, a Republican Bill Clinton.....fortunately for Demos, the Republicans don't have a candidate like that...
You just can't control yourself can you? You just don't know when to quit!!!
Jesus ing Christ man. Again with the 99.9% number? And if you were half as smart as you claimed to be, you'd know the burden of proof is on you for proving that number. You're a flat out idiot and I'm amazed at your posts here. Even I didn't think you were this overtly racist.
6/10 candidates showed up; ins utional racism would have predicted less than a majority. Also, Gingrich, Kemp, and other prominent national Republicans have criticized the 4 front-runners for their decision.
I think is is obscene that ALL FOUR would choose not to participate in that debate. They pretty much suck in my book. I won't vote for any of those in the primary (or course I wasn't going to before the debate, either).
