Did you watch him with Joe Rogan? He's literally the best potential Dem candidate at this point. No question about it. He's the only one who grasps the real challenges ahead and who has the right background to actually solve scalable problems.

I know a few people who want Schultz but the dude doesn't have any good ideas so he's a non-starter. And you already know my opinion of Sanders, Warren, Biden and the rest of the self-hating white candidates.

what does that even mean

I don't evaluate politics from a wahh sjw angle

racial injustice matters

It's very simple: they are all ashamed of being white and are willing to ride that sentiment even though it's dumb as ****.

Anytime somebody recognizes the racial inequality of the country that benefits white people, some people interpret it as hating white people or white guilt because David Duke pushed that rhetoric so hard.

Yet somehow Obama won the presidency twice against those mean ol' whites. Amazing.

Who ever said white people are mean. See, you're taking the David Duke propaganda.

Edit: And I guess you're conveniently forgetting the literally racist propaganda thrown Obama's way that no white president has ever faced.

It is in the way you are thinking about it. If you broke down the stats city by city, community by community and went down to the individual level, you'll find a million different stories that all contradict eachother. Racism exists and has an effect on people's lives. Sometimes even at the community level. But anything beyond that is debatable.

But I've said it before and I'll say it again: Obama wouldn't have even won once, much less twice, in a country where white power somehow trumps everything else. You also wouldn't have anyone wealthy across other backgrounds other than whites. Among countless other things I could mention.
