Perennial candidate Dave Wilson won an election based on racial deception. |
Sometimes I click on Mediaite for the most sensational stories of the week. One in particular is the White man who won an election running as a conservative Republican, but pretending to be a Black man.
If you believe conservatives are that desperate to win, well meet the elected Dave Wilson.
Wilson is a staunch conservative Republican who has no care for the Black community, the Latino community, undocumented workers, and the LGBT community.
In the state of Texas (home of Governor Rick "Oops" Perry, Louie "The Dofus" Gohmert, Steve "The Douche" Stockman, Stallmigo Ted Cruz and perennial loser Ron Paul) this Dave Wilson guy pulled the "Okie Dokie" on many voters.
In a predominately Black area in the city of Houston, Wilson went for the "Hail Mary" pass in an election.
He ran for the board of trustees at the Houston Community College.
He managed to upset Bruce Austin, a longtime trustee in a razor thin election race.
His previous attempt was to become mayor of Houston, the 4th largest city in the United States. He tried to run against Annise Parker, the longtime mayor who is openly gay. He's been running for office more than once.
Wilson puts on a radio ad that makes the ad sound like its a Black man speaking about issue on behalf of the community.
Wilson also pushed direct mail pieces, adorned with pictures of African Americans that Wilson admitted to pulling off the internet, that read “Please vote for our friend and neighbor Dave Wilson.” The fliers also claimed an endorsement by “Ron Wilson”—the name of a longtime African American state representative from the area, but also the name of one of Wilson’s relatives in Iowa. In the fine print, the flier noted “Ron Wilson and Dave Wilson are cousins.”
What's worse is this guy is not apologetic about this.
He actually thinks his victory was a "success" and all that talk about the Black Ron Wilson being a "cousin" is just a "joke".
It's ironic that New Jersey governor Chris Christie won his reelection overwhelmingly. He managed to carry about 38% of the Hispanic vote and 35% of the Black vote respectively. He managed to reach out to those who would normally never vote for a Republican. He warned Republicans that they better know their voters!
Republicans still have a bit of unease when it comes to Black and Hispanic voters. The Republican Party and its allies in the conservative movement look upon people of color as well as Muslims as "natural born criminals" and "gubmint depindants" worshiping the alter of "Brother Barack".
That's probably why the party is 90% WHITE and 10% EVERYONE ELSE!
Republicans are just like cocaine, it's white and whatever else! There's at least something powerful in it when you're getting a high! Republicans are high on stupid.
thnx for the information..
