Yesterday I posted a video chop I made in which the Clinton campaign noticeably excluded African-Americans from their list of supporters, and made it, rather, the case that their supporters are ... WHITE. Backed up even more obviously today.
"I have a much broader base to build a winning coalition on," she said in an interview with USA TODAY. As evidence, Clinton cited an Associated Press article "that found how Sen. Obama's support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening again, and how whites in both states who had not completed college were supporting me."
"There's a pattern emerging here," she said.
Let me say that this is completely shameful. Democrats are supposed to be the Big Tent Party, where it doesn't matter what race, nationality, sexual orientation, etc, someone is, and for Clinton to shamelessly use the White Voter mantra goes against all populist, egalitarian ideas that Democrats should be standing for. Now, I will say again that I hear Republicans saying this, treating Hispanics, for example, as if they are lesser people that need to be shipped out of the country. But not Democrats.
