It's clear you support white nationalism which is disgusting racism and you have somehow convinced yourself that it is not the same thing as white supremacism.
Top polling GOP-er is overt anti-semite
- Thread starter mandrill
- Start date
Does that have anything to do with openly neo-nazi GOP candidates leading in the support?
Systemic racism and institutional bias is a problem. Overt racists running for office getting support from a major party is a massive problem.
You're correct. I "simply don't care". Spencer is a revolting piece of turd. Whether Newsweek calls him a "white supremacist" or a "white nationalist" means dick to me and dick to everyone in North America who doesn't read Breitbart and learn the petty and insignificant bullshit differences between the 2 vile categories.
So why doesn't the GOP simply kick neo Nazi anti Semites out of their party???
Answer: Because doing so would offend every inbred hillbilly who would otherwise vote Red.
Willful ignorance has a poor track record for solving problems. Good luck in turning that record around.
You see nothing clearly. You understand nothing about my position. I've stated it clearly. There's no point in repeating it to you. You won't have it straightened out by the end of this year, or any other year.
Well I've already explained that.
But perhaps one more time: Because Political Parties in the U.S.A. are not organized as they are in many other countries where it is a closed membership system the party needs to accept you and can throw you out. Further that candidates are chosen by the party. In the U.S. the sole requirement to be a party member is that you have turned up at your municipal registry of voters (and the office that actually performs this function differs across the U.S.) and stated that you want to enroll as a member of a political party according to the rules of that state (which mostly have to do with how rapidly you can switch party enrollment and how close to an election you can do so).
As to candidates since the early 20th century, the standard method has been the primary election. ANY member of a party can run in that party's primary election for a particular electoral office the winner becomes the party's candidate for that office in the General Election. Parties have no power to remove candidates.
Party Caucuses in legislative bodies do have the power to bar a particular member from their caucus, but that is as far as it goes. It is not a perfect system but it has worked for over two centuries.
Yes you have but that does not lessen the fact that a significant number of Republicans in California are happy to support an openly racist candidate.
Why doesn't the GOP simply change its constitution to impose rules as to doctrinal adherence?
If Hitler was to take out a GOP party card and stand in the primaries on a platform of kill all Jews and Slavs and invade France, are you saying the GOP would have to suck it up?
They would terms of what you want. Now needless to say people are criticizing the candidate, however, the type articles which start off these threads seldom report those facts.
