Rhetoric 101: The reason more people of color are not conservatives.

I will simply preface this exchange by informing you that this debate took place on YouTube between myself and a person that I will only classify by stating that he is anti-Obama.

Look closely at the choice of words and see if you can get a sense of the tone of the person I was debating with.

Here goes:




"Between the lines of this scripted horseshit, this means that there will be black Obama goons pounding on our doors to collect our guns. I can't wait." dgl1962 1 week ago


2 @dgl1962 - Sir the goons that support Obama come in all colors. We have to be sensitive to our rhetoric and ensure that we classify opponents by their twisted views, not by their skin color. When liberals read comments like this, they run to the race card. We must pursuade those that have been duped, not confirm their accusations. However, it you do embrace racism or White supremacy and this is your intent, then I do offer my apologies. - DrWickDaddy


2 days ago Reply @DrWickDaddy - Voting data shows that 95% of blacks voted for Obama, so our opponents can in fact be classified by their race. There was nothing "white supremacist" at all in my original comment, you must refuse to classify your opponents as such simply by their using "black goons" in a comment. We do NOT have to be sensitive to our rhetoric, unless you agree that we should have speech codes and thought police. Insensitivity & hurt feelings during debates are signs of freedom, get used to it. dgl1962 1 day ago


@dgl1962 - Sir the operative word in my statement was "if". I do not consider you a racist for making the statement. Free speech is still protected. The sensitivity I referred to, was regarding sensitivity to accuracy, not sensitivity to preserve hurt feelings or embrace speech codes or thought police. I am attempting to pursuade individuals, not herd them into groups. That is what liberals do. We cannot pursuade anyone, if we disregard the 5% of blacks that didn't vote for him or disregard the white voters who did. - DrWickDaddy 24 minutes ago

After getting some feedback, we can dissect this exchange, which I consider to be a blatant misrepresentation of the conservative philosophy.

The exchange was surrounding the following video clip.

Obama wants a new civilian military funded to do his bidding, while he reduces funding to our current military that is fighting a war in three countries.
