Martin Luther King used the term “UpSouth” to characterize his thoughts of the State of Indiana whenever he traveled to it. Essentially, he was inferring that unlike other non-southern states north of the Mason-Dixon line, the fervor of the racist climate was as negative in Indiana as it was in, say, Alabama.
Having grown up in [...]

in places like Pennsylvania, Texas and Ohio to put the Wright person in office, Wright Billary? So I guess the “white working class” does not exist in Iowa, Wyoming, Kansas, Minnesota, North Dakota, and Utah, eh?
In case you forgot Billary, these are just some of the states that were won by Obama. The margin [...]

Pasty Rush Limbaugh’s Ditto Heads are the “white working class” that has been “crossing over ” and voting for Hillary in large numbers. I’m convinced after noticing right after the completion of several primaries, theres always a statement in the press that talks about how heavy the voter turn out was in normally Republican Red [...]

Stroll the South Platte Riverwalk. Imagine yelling “Your not the boss of me!” at Bill while standing in the Oval Office.
Could have been you. Had you won the nomination, that is.
Look to the left. Beautiful snow caps to the south of Denver seem so close. A look to the right provides the same vantage point [...]

Having been born and raised in Gary, Indiana (1st 18years), I’ve lived in the Raleigh-Durham, NC area since June 2001. The similarities between Indiana and North Carolina are in most instances subtle, and in some instances striking.
Indiana, Northwest Indiana in particular, has suffered greatly due to the global economy, primarily through the loss of blue [...]

That would be Mickey Kanter. Better hit that Crown Royal hard this weekend Hillary when you visit Indiana.
In 1993, Kanter said:
“Look at Indiana — wait, wait, look at Indiana. 42-40. It doesn’t matter if we win, those people are shit.”
Hillary, you’ve got some splaining to do!….

The racist wing of the Democrat Party has been exposed. Thanks Hillary. Howard Dean, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi are shaking in their boots right now. They fear (should know) the racist tone of Hillary’s campaign has caused irreparable harm to what they have always come to rely on, the black vote.
They’re wondering, hoping [...]

Hillary the Bosnia sniper fire liar vs. the authentic Rambo POW.
Campaigning to Rocky soundtracks can’t even compete with Rambo.
Especially with the coveted “white male vote”.
But a message of hope and accountability does.
North Carolina will demonstrate this.
Black voter, changing your perspective sometimes…….

allows one to see that an answer is staring you right in the face. This election demonstrates how the white male vote is the most sought after vote and how it is viewed as the deciding vote . ( I guess it and the “white working class vote)
They could conceivably vote either way, Obama/Clinton/McCain. Some [...]
