I wonder why is he can't specify what it is about Republican ideas that are "white"? What is white about drilling offshore and in ANWR? What is it about the belief in less government that is white? Is the belief about a strong foreign policy and national defense a white belief? Is supporting traditional marriage and the right to life only for whites? Why do the Dems like Obama and Dean feel they need to use the race card in this election? It is getting tiresome and monotonous at this point. If the ethnic and racial make up of a party is more important the ideas then go with Howard Dean. Furthermore, it is not as if there are not high profile minorities in the Republican party. George Bush has nominated more blacks to his cabinet than previous presidents and to higher positions than ever before. He has given quite a lod of aid to fighting AIDS in Africa. Condi Rice is black. Colin Powell is black. Michael Steele is black. Ken Blackwell is black. J.C. Watts is black. Alberto Gonzalez is hispanic. Mel Martinez and Bob Martinez are hispanic. Sarah Palin is a woman. Elizabeth Dole is a woman. They are all Republicans and the list could be longer but why waste the time. Dean's labeling a party according to some racial characterstic is ignorant and a poor substitute for debating actual ideas.
