Is there a distinction between the agenda of the racist alt-right and the Republican Party ?

The burden of proof lies on those accusing the GOP of being racist. And you have yet to prove it.

Eh, people define racism differently. What I think is racist and what you think is racist aren't gonna be even close.

@CaptainCanadia So far, I haven't come across anyone who can prove that the GOP is racist by either defintion.

Eh, I'm not gonnna convince you. The southern strategy and Lee Atwater's advice on how to use dog whistles - and how that all applies today are easy enough to research.

That said the Democrats have an incredible race problem, which is heavily tied to both Clintons. So it's not like there's a good guy and bad guy here.

@CaptainCanadia I have no idea what you're talking about in your first paragraph.

@InvaderNice " I have no idea what you're talking about in your first paragraph." ....... which probably should have discouraged you from answering this question in the first instance.

@RodionRomanovitch It's common for someone to avoid explaining their point of view after an admission that it's not understood, because it's an easy copout. I'm sorry you think politics are about being correct all the time.

@InvaderNice I'll try and get back to you once I have decpihered that.

@RodionRomanovitch You ridiculed me for not understanding something and now you do the same.
