This Pic is the reason I am Republican as a minority

oh let me guess what that is, rap battles

Athletics. Penis size. Average height. For men: Being the most desired group, sexually, to women. Prominence in the arts. There are probably others.

Photo with Ryan is of both Republican & Democrat interns
http://www.snopes.com/republican-and-democratic-interns/
"Khalaf says that Ryan’s speech had a limited capacity, so interns were randomly selected to attend in a lottery. The interns in the picture work for congresspeople of both parties, he says.

“I don’t think this necessarily reflects poorly on Paul Ryan,” says Khalaf. “Sure, it shows his privilege and inability to see the lack of diversity. However, it’s a better representation of the fact that so many interns on the Hill are not people of color.”"

Looks like the Ryan photo is more indicative that the lottery selection was rigged. And as stated in the link, "People of color just don't have access to these high level internships like internships on the hill."

Each side could use few more from the other. America = deal with each other people.

That's cool.


I'm an adult, so I understand there are bigger and more complicated things at stake than a picture can tell, and that neither side aligns with all my important opinions

Indian Americans are the most educated population in the United States, with more than 80 percent holding college or advanced degrees, stated a report released June 19 by the Pew Research Center.
Indians Americans also have the highest income levels, earning $65,000 per year with a median household income of $88,000, far higher than the U.S. household average of 49,000, according to the survey.

Interesting that Indian income is negatively skewed, considering that household income in the USA is positively skewed. I'm assuming the $65,000 figure is Indian average.

I guess the award for the most overtly racist thread of July is on lockdown.

What are you some self hating minority? Don't you realize most of those white chicks wouldn't go for you? I know the types and if they are from the old south you don't have a chance no matter how much you want to lie or pretend.

I don't get self hate.

I also, don't see the need to bash/make fun of those girls. Why because they are black? Also, there are some hot black women shame they were put in the back/not present I suppose.

my roommate is chinese and white girls like him. He's a country music loving Asian (I call him T'Wang)

In the top pic there is too many white people and in the bottom picture white people are under-represented by numbers
and that is a problem too.

 

[SouthoftheAndes]

Great example of how Democrats are obsessed with race. Paul Ryan posted his pic because he was proud of his interns. Not because of their race, but because of their merit. He wasn't posting that pic to brag about how white his interns are but about how awesome they are.

How do the Dems respond? By making it a race thing. They wanted to show how diverse their interns were. Their race was the focus, not their merits.

Democrats have a mental disease on this issue. They are only interested in scoring racial brownie points with various minority groups instead of worrying about the content of people's character.

This isn't all Democrats. I am a Democrat after all. Also, do you have a link? Is this a bigger story? Paul Ryan posts the pic and they post a pic to show "diversity"?

How can there be "too many" white people? Why is it an issue if all of Paul Ryans interns are white? Are you implying that their are racist intentions to it?

Also, I don't see how there being less whites in the Democrat photo is an issue. So what? It just so happened that that day and the number of interns hired who were white were less. Most likely less whites applied or did they?

Again why is it important. Do you want some quota which accurately divides/makes sure that each population is represented as theor respective national population % ?

 

[FrankensteinMMA]

just shows that the dems are the party of the people...bringing everyone together...

and you dont want democrat women?..

asian men are at the BOTTOM of the totem pole as far as dating goes...if you like white women...being around the republicans wont get you anywhere..

 

[FrankensteinMMA]

For what its worth, the democrat party hasn't focused on Asian Americans at all. Asian Americans are out performing whites in a shit ton of areas, and they really don't suffer from any of the alleged problems of minorities in the US.

the jews outperform the entire world....vast majority of them lean very left...

the democratic party doesnt focus on them either btw.......

smart people vote for unity....dumb people vote only for themselves....

 

[Strange Shadows]

what is this bullshit

 

[FrankensteinMMA]

Depends how you define 'Asian'. In Canada, 'Asian' mean Arab, Paki, Iranian, Indian, Pashtun, Turkish, Chinese etc.

Children of East Asian immigrants from China, Korea, Japan do often out perform the average white folk. However, for the Middle Eastern folk and often Muslim south Asians that is not the case.

Indians (non muslim) Indians are often a grey area. I am not sure if they out perform to the extent that East Asians do. Oh and I don't believe folk from South East Asia outperform.

THE FUCK!?

every vietnamese person I ever knew was outperforming nearly everyone like a forumla 1 race car.

not only that but some of the touggest people I ever met where vietnamese military vets.

Repub Interns

Dem Interns

I'm 37, I've been a registered Republican since i could vote at 18. I have never actually voted for the right, in my voting lifetime, the candidates were too dumb. (now both sides are too dumb, but that's a different thread)

However, i don't know why, as a minority (i'm asian btw), you'd go democrat... I saw the lines being split 20 years ago, and i want to be where all the white ppl are at, dat's just SMART.

Wtf??? You want to be where all the white people are? You want to support racist policies that only benefit the white upper class? There's a reason minorities are exclusively dem. Because gop policies are outright racist

I know we've butted heads a lot over Clinton (satan) and Bernie but we have a great deal in common. 10/10 post

They lean left but also widely support ethnonationalism in Israel.

Muslims also tend to lean left (voting wise) as do many other minority groups who aren't socially liberal. Often they would vote conservative at home (if they lived in democracy). It looks more like tribal interests in different contexts than 'desire for unity' in these cases.

People here talk high and mighty about being enlightened about the issues and here you are saying you are switching teams because of a bunch of kids you are never going to fuck.

I agree with this enlightened man who votes based on children that he will be able to fuck.

only in their homelands...

the jews have been persecuted everyhwere they lived..I can see why they should have their own little country...

I dont agree how they treat the palestinians but jews jave done so much for humanity they deserve a place for themselves..

the muslims...ehhhh......

as long as the radical ones dont pull that shit outside the middle east...

Condemning democrats for providing opportunities for all races to prove themselves. Implying that only whites were good enough to intern for Republicans.

Good talk, Rex. You're still in the zone from your earlier nonsense.
