Richardson: Cruz should be considered Hispanic

[kwc57]

Does it really matter?

No but after years of Repubs saying Obama isn't black this is their chance to show that they found one person to say this once therefore it makes up for them going on for 6 years.

Once or 6 years it's all the same

So, you judge a book by its cover?

 

[Katzndogz]

I have serious doubts as to whether Cruz is Hispanic

Does it say so on his birth certificate?

It says so in his mexican citizenship papers. He also has a mexican birth certificate AND a US birth certificate.

All of the non whites in this world had better get with the program (liberal agenda) or else the liberals will take your race from you.

This just in: PC Police claim Clarence Thomas is Swedish.

Who the **** said that?

republicans didnt say that dumbass, do I have to school you in every thread

Urban Dictionary: magic negro

U.S. Democrat presidential candidate Barak Obama who is partly African-American and has virtually no career history in politics. White voters like him because he is non-threatening and supporting an African-American for president assuages guilt over slavery, segregation and other racist policies of the past. Black civil-rights activists claim he isn't "black enough."

Obama the 'Magic Negro' - latimes.com

Written by a liberal black democrat, lets check out the first line:
The Illinois senator lends himself to white America's idealized, less-than-real black man.

It's liberals who say this, especially black ones and then you attribute it to republicans....kinda like the race thing....you guy dont know anything do you? Do you even know black people?

Hey Buckeye...What would be a better trick is if you showed where I said anything about Barak the Magic Negro.

Since I didn't, what are you talking about? Changing the subject again? I would too buddy

I know what you're trying to do, but you allowed opened the door to this and I'm going through it

Who are you to doubt it. He has some hispanic features, but who gives a shit?

Why do liberals like you have "authenticate" minorities, you sound the klan.

My God a black person can be black and vote republican or date a white chick, or whatever, because his race is his race, not his behavior.
British black people are still black, they're not white, just because they speak the kings english and have the british accent...

His Canadian Birth Certificate should list him as Hispanic

Otherwise Ted Cruz is no more Hispanic than Tom Cruise

Bill Richardson on Ted Cruz: 'I don't think he should be defined as a Hispanic' | Fox News

Liberals are becoming even crazier

His father was born in Cuba. That would make him Latino. No wait, his mother was white, that would make him half Latino

Also, hasn't it been said about Obama that he's not black because he "hasn't lived the black experience"? I seem to recall some "real black" pizza guy making that point.

Ain't it interesting how the right calls it crazy when we throw their logic right back at them?

Wow, this takes the absurdity of Identity Politics to a whole new level. He doesn't "qualify" for a certain ethnicity because his opinion on immigration is "wrong".

Holy crap. Madness.

.

Speaking of identity politics madness, Rafael Eduard Cruz does not qualify for President because he was born outside the US.

Just ask Donald Trump.

 

[mmmjvpssm]

We need to check his Canadian Birth Certificate first

At best, Cruz is only half Hispanic.....What Rush Limbaugh would call......HalfSpanic

Richardson is only 3/4 hispanic.

Remind me why that's important.

What part of "Obama's only half black" are you trying to pretend was never said?

Funny stuff from an hispanic named RICHARDSON.

Richardson would be Latino too

Legit question, did he? For African-Americans to vote for him because they believe he understands them was foolish. He shares a skin color with them, but not a life experience. Hell, he doesn't understand the life experience of any shade of American. Other than brief visits, he grew up outside the continental US until he was 19 and came to college. His world view is different than any color of American.

Obama is only half black. Why do you dispute that?

I have said this many times. Most black families have family memories of segregation, Jim Crow, northern migration, and in some circumstances slavery. Obama has none of that. His father was an African immigrant in the 1960s. He grew up in the 70s and 80s (he and I are 6 months apart), when all of that was long gone. Other than getting it from black friends he can have no better understanding of the black experience than anyone else.

bucky tried that several times in the southern strategy threads (change the direction or subject because he could not argue the facts) and got smashed down.

Just keep smashing him down here.

We in the GOP mainstream are doing are best to isolate his type of thinking.

Given his behavior so far, I'd think the Dems would want him on the ticket.

You conveniently forget the time he served as "Community Organizer". Working in black neighborhoods, resolving issues, meeting the people

Republicans still claim that is the extent of his experience
