I have noticed that it seems to be an income level issue. Republicans generally point their noses towards money which is to say the rich to stay rich. The poor or middle classes are left to fend for themselves. Hence the apparent racism.

Historically, Democrats were more for the lower / average incomes and Republicans were for the middle / upper incomes. This caused more minorities to surround the Democratic party. That gap has narrowed so much that it's not visible. If you look at what the Republicans have done and tried to do for Hispanics, you can see clearly that they are not racist. Bush (republican) tried to give a path of citizenship to illegal immigrants with that last bill. That is the opposite of racism.

both parties are racist. Republicans are racist against immigrants and some even against blacks. The democrats are racist against whites (affirmative action) because it makes them look less racist against blacks. Racism is racism regardless of which race plays the victim.

i think your mis-perception has to go deeper than republican. most "republicans" are conservative, mainstream, moral people. the "democratic" party has the "put your finger to the wind" type attitude and just sees what can produce the most votes at the time. kind of like al gore being "mr. environmental" when he lives in a house the size of a small town! the democrats wanting to impeach bush firing 8 lawyers when good ol' bill fired 98. do yourself a big favor in life and dont believe anything the press tells you, especially in an election year!!!

Because you are not a republican. It is always easier to see someone else's faults before your own.
I dated an African American, her family (stanch democrats, acted extremely racists against me (until they found out I was successful). Her brothers' friends all out RUDE.
Racism is just as strong in ethnic communities as in white, republican as democrat, suburbs as inner city.

Why do Democrats continue to elect a former Grand Kleagle of the KKK to the Senate?
That seems racist to me.
Bush has had more minorities in his Presidential cabinet than Clinton had on the White House kitchen and janitorial staffs.

Because the race card is something that the extreme left likes to use. :)
We're used to it, and simply have learned to place it on ignore.

Hadn't noticed any such thing. Perhaps you'd cite a few examples?
