Ron Paul does not care about black people.

WASHINGTON DC - Ron Paul, a Republican candidate for the presidency, issued a few statements about what is really wrong about the USA and how to fix it. Ron Paul claims that black people are ruining the nation.

He was quoted as saying: "Regardless of what the media tell us, most white Americans are not going to believe that they are at fault for what blacks have done to cities across America. The professional blacks may have cowed the elites, but good sense survives at the grass roots. Many more are going to have difficultly avoiding the belief that our country is being destroyed by a group of actual and potential terrorists -- and they can be identified by the color of their skin. This conclusion may not be entirely fair, but it is, for many, entirely unavoidable."

When UNews asked Ron Paul to clarify his statement, he replied: "Indeed, it is shocking to consider the uniformity of opinion among blacks in this country. Opinion polls consistently show that only about 5% of blacks have sensible political opinions, i.e. support the free market, individual liberty, and the end of welfare and affirmative action.... Given the inefficiencies of what D.C. laughingly calls the "criminal justice system," I think we can safely assume that 95% of the black males in that city are semi-criminal or entirely criminal."

Ron Paul claims he held this opinions as far back as 1992, and was quoted as saying "If you have ever been robbed by a black teen-aged male, you know how unbelievably fleet-footed they can be."

Indeed, the African-American community has responded. MC Hammer spoke "Ron Paul is mistaken, the whole reason why I got into music is to avoid becoming a gang member and a Black stereotype that Ron Paul is trying to promote. I avoided having a criminal history and had a good career as a dancer and singer and entertainer." Many like MC Hammer agree, like Mr. T who said "I pity the fool who thinks that 95% of Black Males are criminals!" Kayne West was quoted as saying "Ron Paul does not care about black people. I even doubt he cares about white people, either. I think he is a Martian or something." Calling many to question just what Ron Paul's real political opinions are on these matters. Has the whole anti-war and pro-liberal campaign of Ron Paul just been smoke and mirrors, and now we are witnessing the true face of Ron Paul, as a racist? David Duke announced that he and his fellow politicians fully 100% support Ron Paul in his 2008 run for President and if the Republicans won't nominate him, that their party will nominate him.
