I mean, other than the basic error of paying attention to Gregory Kane.

[new] Re: Michael Steele's No Substance Strategy (3.00 / 3)

Lecturing African-Americans with a broad-brush on the need for partisan loyalty is a knee-jerk and racist comment. African-Americans are the single most loyal Democratic voting group, and have been for many cycles. I didn't see any blacks voting for Nader - that was all liberal white people.

But this comment offends me on more than just that absurd level. The election hasn't happened yet, and yet you're asking the African-American community to forget about race. It's ridiculous to say that race plays no part in our culture, society, and politics. That doesn't mean it is a totally dominant factor, but it must be acknowledged. Practically every black leader is considered 'divisive' and 'controversial' for doing things that white leaders routinely engage in without consequence. Minority candidates are accused of corruption routinely and systematically, and white America buys into it no questions asked.
