Sounds like more excuses which actually highlights my point.Frederick Douglass and Shirley Chisholm.Solid plan according to whom?How many of our presidents have been non white? I think the problem is that to white people skin color is the most important qualification.
Considering that in the 200+ year history of this country, blacks have only been lawfully allowed to vote in every state for 55 years, that is obvious.
Furthermore, there has never been a president of Asian, Native American or Hispanic decent.
So can either of you come up with how many non-whites have ever ran for President, that actually had a solid plan on the issues of this country??????? Instead of complaining why they haven't won?
ok skip the 'solid plan'...….can you come up with anyone??????
Well that 'solid plan', I was thinking Hillary......she didn't have one, she never came up with any details on how she was going to 'fix' the problems facing the country, even though she's not 'of color'
Also, Ben Carson (hey there's one for ya) was a lame candidate
Unfortunately Frederick Douglass doesn't count...…...namely because of society's stance on anyone of color at that time. Not to mention, most blacks were still slaves then and had no rights, including the right to vote.
Shirley Chisholm is/was to be admired for the work she had done...….but again timing is important here. She ran in 1972, when most women of any color were still fighting for our rights of equality
