From [HERE] Samuel Wurzelbacher, the outspoken Ohio handyman known as “Joe the Plumber,” sparked renewed allegations of racism by posting a controversial article on his blog over the weekend.
The article, “America Needs a White Republican President,” opines: “Admit it. You want a white Republican president again. Wanting a white Republican president doesn’t make you racist, it just makes you American.”
“The election of a recognized black president was ... supposed to (1) ease any perceived racial tensions, and (2) allow the government to focus on legislating without race,” the article continues. “Not the case. And that is why having a white Republican president is best for the country.”
Wurzelbacher was widely blasted on social media for the offensive article, but aggressively defended himself by pointing out the article originally appeared on a website called The Black Sphere, which is run by the conservative black pundit Kevin Jackson. more on white supremacy/racism [HERE]
