When Will Republican Party ELECT A Non-White Person as Their Leader?

Do you think it can happen anytime soon? Can they ELECT and non-white person (especially a black person) as the leader of their party, like how they did for John McCain recently?|||HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA





They had a GREAT candidate in Colin Powell - until they USED him to tell their lies about Iraq and destroyed his credibility totally.





Just like they have been USING Condi. I personally can't stand her, but she's just their "token" and with her they get two in one (black %26amp; female) - then they have her write a resolution and then tell her not to vote on it. (and of course she OBEYS)





I can see you don't spend much time around "Republicans". Their idea of "politically correct" is to let one in the room, they don't get to speak of course, but they let them in the room, what MORE do you want?


Truly, you don't expect them to ACTUALLY fraternize now do you?





How do you think Palin got where she got - an airhead, a not bad looking airhead token they would have used to get the WH, but do you think for one second she would have had a FRACTION of the power Cheney had? She was supposed to excite, help them win, and then go home and take care of her 5 kids. Why do you think they were so surprised that she didn't win the election for them? We were just supposed to LOOK at her and listen to the Rove BS, NOT actually interview her. Look, they gave us a FEMALE to vote for, it matters not that she didn't know her head from a hole in the ground, she was female that (in their small minds) should have taken the Hillary voters and clinched it for them.





HA HA HA HA HA HA HA





The party of the red-necked "superior" bigot with a person of color/female telling THEM what to do?





HA HA HA HA HA HA HA





ROFL, I just can't stop laughing.





Oh, to answer your question, not in our lifetime, or our childrens, or even our grandchildrens.

Ya'll TWICE elected a white incompetant IDIOT that had NO command of the English language, why should HAVING command of the language stop a minority?|||Sure. Bobby Jindahl is right on target for 2012.|||They have,,,Republican Condi Rice, Secretary of State, she was the highest ranking black female in history before Obama.





Unlike the Democrats, Republicans prefer to elect according to ideals,experience,and accomplishments, rather then elect by race or gender.|||As soon as one comes along that has political views that are conservative.





Addition: I guess you could interpret "Conservative" to mean "Competent."|||I would prefer that our priorities would be a conservative, regardless of race.|||Yes they can and would have if Sec Rice would have ran.|||thompson and palin 2012|||Bobby Jindal will be that person in 2012|||I don't see that happening in the for see-able future.|||Retarded Idiot does not = White = Bush|||I like Condoleeza Rice.|||Did you miss the TIDAL WAVE of support we had for Condi Rice???





She DIDN'T WANT to be President.....a fact that O-sham-a must be VERY thankful for.





With her education, upbringing, experience, and credentials, she would be a SLAM DUNK winner (in my opinion).





We also like Michael Steele and I happen to like Dr. Alan Keyes because he is a Constitutional SCHOLAR.|||24 years after the Democrats ran a female Vice-President candidate the Republicans had Palin.


So I guess about another 24 years.|||Republicans don't elect people based on their skin color, there is no need to elect someone simply because they're not white. Rev. Wright isn't white but he's not right (not in the head anyway).|||I don't know...maybe Colin Powell...if they move more to the center.





I could consider voting for him.|||go to any republican gathering and you can count the non whites on one hand. The republican party is made up of all whites, while the democrats are all-inclusive. So which party is more inclusive? And a token black republican is just that--a token.|||When there is a competant one that wants to serve in such a position.... We don't just elect people of minorities for the sheer fact they are a part of a minority... Our political and election process should not be subject to affirmative action and that whomever has a color to their skin should be elected because they happened to master the English Language... :/





I would like to see Bobby Jindal go farther... as well as others... but they have to WANT to do it too...





BTW: I know more Mexicans and Hispanics that are Conservative and Republican than I know white people that are...|||WHO CARES what color someone is ? shouldnt we elect our president according to his qualifications and his beliefs? I thought we are not supposed to judge people on the color of their skin so the republicans should nominate the best person { black,white,male,female] for the job.|||HA HA HA HA|||who knows? who cares?


Today I deal with the here and now ~





added to next poster. bush was not competent. He is a warmonger. A man who believes himself to be God.





So there were no more attacks against the US ~ un hum


why not, you ask?


because of bush, you answer.


Not me.


Because you see, no one R~E~A~L~L~Y knows who was responsible for 911. but I will say this. There is no way that a big overgrown arab named Osama binLaden ~living in a cage, could have masterminded the exact timing, the preciseness, the too-well put together tragedies of 911. No way.|||As soon as the Democrats "elect" a competent leader.|||OK.....since a person's skin color is the most important attribute you look for when picking a leader......who does this? Oh yeah, Democrats.





Gotta love "progressives"......lol|||I hope to see Rice in that race next time. We will then have a women and she will be of color!|||Michael Steele will probably be the leader of the GOP very soon. Alan Keyes ran for President this year however the Democrats choose our candidate for us. You do realize 18 million Democrats voted against Obama in the Primaries don't you?|||I am personally a Colin Powell fan! I am really hoping to see him run in 2012!|||As soon as we can find a gay/lesbian/African American/Illegal Hispanic American/woman. We just want to be sure we don't leave anyone out in this new Liberal demographic!|||The vast majority of African American's are Democrats, so statistically one would expect proportionally fewer African American candidates in the Republican Party. What I find strange is that there are so few African American Officials in the Democratic Party. We Republicans have Lynn Swann, Condoleeza Rice, Colin Powell, Clarence Thomas...

We Republicans have many excellent African American officials despite having a very small African American support base. Whereas Democrats have only 1 African American Senator despite having an ENORMOUS African American support base. When Democrats speak of equality, it is just empty rhetoric. It seems to me that Republicans are the only party where an African American can advance or fail without regard to the color of his or her skin. Of course, we are the party of Lincoln.|||Mary, obviously you only read the answers that support your blind hatred. Not sure what your agenda is, but try to be fair.
