    Actually, it is 100 percent true that America isn't white enough. I'll explain in another post in a minute.

    The point is, you wouldn't give yourself the chance to vote McCall vs. Brown. McCall would never make it out of the Republican primary. You'd vote for some right-wing crackpot instead.

    See, white reflects heat and sunlight. Well, if we are warming we should have more white roofs and roads and stuff so it keeps temps down.

    again, Kate Brown, her political beliefs, existence or you voting for her, has nothing to do with the argument that Tom McCall would be too liberal to be a Republican in todays climate.

    Not to worry. Heat make the atmosphere hold more moisture, moisture makes clouds, more clouds reflects heat, less heat makes clouds snow, more snow packs into ice, ice reflects light heat.
    The ice pack builds, more ice lowers the ocean, the cycle continues.

    I don't know where you get your information. I suppose if enough democrats vote in the Republican primary again, that might happen.

    I get my information from the last couple of decades of Republican candidates/primaries. Admittedly I don't know how you personally would vote, but based on your posts you are far to the right of Tom McCall.

    Where did you read me saying that McCall is too liberal for me? Did you take classes on "how to argue against something no one said" from BGD?

    I don't find the perception astonishing. I might be to the right of Attila.

    You posted it, I assume it is your opinion, it sure isn't mine.

    Do you think through the things you post, or do you just get liquored up and post anything that looks like words someone strung together in a sentence?

    Well, it is Breitbart. Hardly the most reliable source.

    I don't even know if I count as coming from "white" culture, I sure grew up in white bread land but they mostly rejected me. Jewish, radical, atheist, queer.

    Personally I tend to think the country is too white, at least those in power are still, as they say, mostly "pale, male, and stale".
