Ask away, the subject is race. He is coming this wednesday

"Why do most CNN reporters continue to ask the same old tired and irrelevant questions of Ron Paul about the "newsletter issue" even after the question has been asked and answered at least 10 times already?"

 

[Melissa]

Ask him why the media does not address the war on drugs and the disproportionate number of minorities in jail if they really want to address racism and what it means

 

[hazek]

Race? Of all the pressing issues he wants to talk about race?

Show him this:

Say that someone shared that clip from the debate.. and now you're voting for Ron Paul!

I wouldn't play their game. Say something like "Ron Paul points to our drug war and justice system as being against minorities, whats your take" or something like that. It makes him respond to Ron Paul in terms of being proactive against racism and doesn't give them a chance to bring up the comment against him

I'm pretty sure that cnn has at some point in it's history done several stories about the disproportional amount of blacks getting arrested and charged with crimes etc etc.. Just because they don't do a story on it every day for the past 20 years doesn't mean it hasn't been done. I wouldn't ask anything directly related to RP, especially if the topic is racism, theres really no upside and potential downside. But a good question about how the media perpetuates racism by labeling people in groups would be sweet.

he is a loser, just take in the smokescreen and know that you are far more awake than he is. Just read some of his garbage over the years. Almost up there with Dick morris

1.) The U.S. Census Bureau shows that whites will become a minority population in 30 years and white children will become the minority in 10 years. Do you think it's racist if whites do not wish to become a minority in their own country? Can you name any country where the predominant race would welcome becoming a minority in a few decades? For U.S. cities or neighborhoods that are predominantly Hispanic or black or Asian, do you think they would welcome news saying that they would soon become a minority in their own area?

Do you think it's racist if whites do not wish to become a minority in their own country?

Yes.

The question presumes that "white people" own America, or that it is their land of origin.

The U.S. Census Bureau shows that whites will become a minority population in 30 years and white children will become the minority in 10 years.

Stating the statistic as a mere fact with no emotional attachment is not racist.

Lamenting over it or rejoicing over it is.
