... to be President.
Apparently, Trump's Russian bot army got this to trend on Twitter and then Donny Jr. hopped on the bandwagon. Don't forget conservatives thought Obama was too black to be President. LVA conservatives, what is the optimal level of blackness for a politician to qualify to run for President?
Mark, shut up.
It could be difficult to quantify, there are a whole host of topics to choose from here, but this could be the stupidest post Mark has offered to date. On a day where he could have shown us some more of his looney left outlook from the democrat debates, he chose this instead. And we have 6 more years for him to try to carry on.
Looking at Ali Alexander's Facebook page, it seems to poor old DonDiego that Mr. Alexander was just making a joke about those who do base their vote on skin color.
Speaking as a fellow generally aligned with "conservative politics" DonDiego cannot answer Mark's question regarding others' opinions on the optimal skin color for a political candidate.
DonDiego can state that he attended a rally for Herman Cain back in 2011, and would've voted for him over Barack Obama based upon his politics not his skin tone. Mr. Cain does appear a few shades darker than President Obama or Kamala Harris.
lvfritz, don't complain about me. If it is a stupid topic, how come conservatives decided to turn it into a national news story by blasting it out there on the Internet?
My thoughts are conservatives saw her debate performance and they were impressed. They know Trump will be cut to shreds if he has to face her in a debate. They are laying the groundwork so they can gin up another birther conspiracy against another black candidate.
Don, he is a conservative activist (shit talker). He wasn't joking. Apparently, he has some sort of regular podcast.
Here is a quote from one of Mr. Alexander's videos. Goebbels and Lenin, smart men, evil men,” Alexander said. “But they have nothing on me in terms of social engineering.

Candy, the old saying is true you can't please everyone.
Re: Mark's post of 4:20PM
Mr. Alexander appears to be a less-than-deep thinking rabble-rouser, with an unjustified opinion of himself.
It would seem that all this hub-bub was intended to attract attention to himself. It did attract the attention of Mark !
DonDiego has forgotten all about it, . . . NOW ! [POOF ! It's gone.]
I didn't just catch my attention. It caught Don Jr's attention too. It appears this talk about not being black enough was first fermented by the discredited Jacob Wohl. Then it was picked up by the Neo-Nazi site, The Daily Stormer, and a short time later Mr. Alexander took it and posted it. Then the entire conservative media apparatus took it and ran with it and finally it trickled out of Don Jr's mouth.
It makes for an interesting case study about how the conservative media gets its news. It starts out on the sewers of the Internet, the Neo-Nazi and White Nationalists sites. From there it floats to a somewhat sanitized fringe conservative commentator. Then the "mainstream" conservative news outlets take it and run with it. Finally, the feces end up being repeated by rank and file conservatives.
It also seems to have attracted the attention of Vladimir Putin's troll farms.
Is Mark denying Harris' ancestry?
Look like Mark doesn't like the "conservative activist" because he is black.
Mark Mark Mark, there you go again.
