How to lose an election
    #5984613 - 08/21/06 06:40 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

Luckily us floridians get confused when looking at a ballot, this guy may have a shot.

> How to lose an election

Nominate Hillary?

Guess I should read the link... :grin:

Actually, it is a video... I assume people are trying to use his statements to claim that he is racist.  Based on the twenty seconds or so of footage, I would disagree.

He is talking about his time in the military and crossing a river:  "... 140 some odd soldiers, or what have you.  A large number were black.  I grew up in Alabma.  I understand, or know this from my own experience, that blacks are not the greatest swimmers, or may not know how to swim, but we were ..."

I am about as far from racist as one can get, and his comments, although lacking tact, are more or less true.  I was amazed when I moved to the Caribbean... the locals, for the most part, do not know how to swim, do not want to know how to swim, and avoid the ocean and boats.  Look at the olympics if you need proof... how many black US swimmers have metals versus how many black US runners have metals.  I have asked many of my (black) friends about this, (I used to teach swimming lessons and cannot understand why somebody would not want to learn how to swim?!), and they all say pretty much the same thing... the ocean is good to soak in when you are sick, but screw swimming or anything related to it.

Hmm.

Odd. They really don't like the water eh? I find that kind of funny. I also don't really find his remark racist, more or less the oppisite if you think about it. He can be open about this sort of thing.

But he's an idiot for saying something like that if he truley wants to win an election, black people may not find it to be so funny if they already don't like him. Especially the ones that do swim.

I don't think for myself. I think as though I'm explaining my thoughts to someone else. I'm concerned only for those listening.

In the US, you cannot say something like that even if it is true.  :bye:

Open and to the public the negros are gonna rip this guy apart. 

Behind closed doors they are all gonna admidt that none of them know how to swim..

If someone calls this guy to answer for his statement he should just say "look at all them rap videos, theyve always got a pool but nobody is ever swimming cept for some white chicks".

Thats proof enough for me :grin:

Yeah it didnt strike me as racist, but maybe a little racially insensetive for anyone in politics. I know it is true, and my black friends will admit it. It is just one of those things you dont really say publically when running for a government position =P
