African American's for Ron Paul.

We NEED this site. We need african american supporter videos posted on it.
Anyone willing to put something together?
And if we do, we need to market it to Cnn, Msnbc, and faux...

and...

Push getonid's videos! As a African American Ron Paul supporter on you-tube, we need to get this man's voice out.

I think Rodent is a man of color. he was working on a site along these lines, not sure what happened to him. I pinged him a week or so ago because I was suppose to get a design for him, but eventually suggested one of those plug/play blogs.. cause they have alot of skins to choose from.

perhaps you can ping him.

I think we need to get off the internet and make some phone calls.

I wonder who could do it if he is gone for good...

I disagree with this 100%. We either come to Ron Paul as Americans or as White American's too. Not just African American or Muslim American or whatever. If we are united we are United as Americans! OR We are United by race.

No really... you kinda did... I've heard these exact words: "White American's too. Not just African American or Muslim American or whatever. "

I think what he meant is that if we start splintering into different groups of Americans for Ron Paul we are working directly against Ron Paul's message of being just Americans for Ron Paul.

african-american is the worst term ever invented. dave matthews is from africa, charlize theron is from africa, south africa has a large white population. african-american is a dehumanizing term. "oh you're an african-american? where in africa?" "wherever my masters picked up my great great great grandparents from". im technically a greek american but i just call myself american.

anyways this rant doesnt have much to do with the post other than to point out the retardedness of being politically correct. how bout just do a minorities for paul or something like that. if we doing blacks for paul it will obviously be viewed as a response to the racist stuff and not be viewed as authentic

This is just marketing and part of politics. While ideally everyone is an individual people still identify in certain groups. That's why you have groups like " Auto Workers for" or "Muslims for " or whatever. And it can be effective.

There is nothing pure about this campaign or politics in general.

Comparing groupings by Auto Workers to Muslims is apples and oranges but having said that as long as grouping by whites is OK too then there is no problem.

Whites for Ron Paul! Whites for white's interest! Absolutely!

He's got a point there, like it or not.
"People of Color" have all this unity, for blacks only, black pride, etc going and it is fine by me and the rest of the USA
BUT
if a white person says the exact same thing, only with whites, they are called racist.

It is funny really.
I have a lot of black friends and coworkers, and they agree it is a sad double standard.

That said...

This movement is:
AMERICANS for Ron Paul. No collectivism or grouping.
American Individuals for Ron Paul.

RP usually uses the word blacks, instead of african americans. i think the term black American is the most accurate.

Hey come on, we need to appeal to many individuals with different backgrounds, interests, and perceptions.Therefore, we need to use a variety of ways to appeal to each one of them.

That is fine as long as we can also appeal and group by white. If we can appeal and group by black, hispanic, asain or whatever we can also do white.
