Is Michael Steel Conservative Agenda Republican Sensationalism?

I agree with you on 99% of what you are saying, although there is that one percent of Republicans that believe he was not used as a token negro. Anyone that has lived in the United States has seen enormous changes that have happened in this nation, most of it was due to African-Americans willing to sacrifice most anything to obtain equal freedom for their people. On the other hand, if it were not for the many brave White-Americans who walked side-by-side with their sisters and brothers many freedoms that African-Americans have today would not exist. Thanks for leaving the comment.

"It's very clear he is a token negro for the right wingers! They never supported anything thing to do with any minorities!" And that's just the kind of crap I'm used to hearing from liberals like you. Who, may I ask, are "they"? The civil rights movement started with republicans like Dwight Eisenhower. Who supported Brown v. Board of Education and proposed and signed 2 civil rights acts during his term. George W. Bush appointed Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice to the highest offices ever held by a black man and woman prior to Obama. They were also the most qualified people for those jobs so there was nothing "token" about their appointments. "Now all of a sudden all these old white males have this great revelation and open their arms to the Blacks,Hispanics, and Asians! LOL! What a joke!!! They think we're all stupid!" From the look of it, YOU are the old white male. There are plenty of Hispanics and Asians in the republican party. I didn't know the dems wanted to lay claim to those minorities as well, but I shouldn't be surprised.

David Duke? Are you kidding me? He is nothing in the republican party. That moron is a former clan leader and nobody in the GOP would want to be associated with him. In case you're unaware, he was also a democrat when he ran for the senate and during his presidential campaign. When he ran as a Republican both Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush opposed him and endorsed his opponent. In fact, in EVERY SINGLE attempt he's made at public office prominent republicans have backed his opponents even endorsing democrats over him. He has no clout, and no prominent republicans have EVER endorsed him for ANYTHING. If you're really ignorant enough to think that he, in any way, represents republicans then you are almost as delusional as Ery... Ok, I take that back. Nobody is as bad as him. Still, you need a serious reality check.

In no way do I feel this is a stupid allegation, it is a proven fact that the Republican party many stale ideas and agendas have continued to cripple this great nation in so many ways. Does this man stand up for the working class values of middle-class America? If President George Bush would have begun to negotiate and stimulate the economy this nation would not be in the financial turmoil working-class citizens face. Sad to say, even Colin Powell, George Bush and Condeleza rice speak of things they could have done differently if given the chance, how can this be when their administration had two terms to work towards greater goals.
