I can, but many can\u2019t. They tried. Drive-By-Media buddies celebrated the Democrats for having the most diverse presidential field ever: two black senators, a Latino former cabinet secretary, an Asian-American businessman, and the first American Samoan elected to Congress.<\/p>\n<p>But now there\u2019s no more joy. The New York Times is bemoaning a horrible development: the Democrats\u2019 top-tier candidates are all white.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-241581\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/00-Rush-Morning-Update-2.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"199\" height=\"137\">Plugs Biden, Crazy Bernie, Pocahontas Warren, and Mayor Pete are at the top of the heap \u2013 while \u201ccandidates of color are languishing in the low single digits in the polls,\u201d says the Times. And they are having trouble raising money. Only one of these \u201ccandidates of color\u201d might make it to the Democrats\u2019 December debate, and that\u2019s the flailing Kamala Harris.<\/p>\n<p>How did this sad state of affairs happen? One reason the Times gives is that Plugs Biden earned a lot of black support due to his association with \u201cthe One.\u201d The Times also notes that the diverse candidates \u201caren\u2019t Obama.\u201d In other words, maybe they just aren\u2019t that good, compared to Obama.<\/p>\n<p>But maybe the real answer is something the Times doesn\u2019t dare print. Maybe Obama was a one-off. A historical fluke. Now that he\u2019s over, Democrats have returned to their natural state: a party ruled by white supremacy and institutional racism. Don\u2019t doubt me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: When the primary season started, Democrats practically broke their arms patting themselves on the back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":56,"featured_media":270056,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 -
