Paul to Minorities: Vote for GOP, Then Get Back to the Fields, Ni**ers

He really doesn't hear his own words, does he?  It's always "We need diversity!" But never "This is how we need to change our policy proposals to give minorities a reason to vote for us."

James R. Carroll at the Courier:

Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul on Monday completed his tour of three early primary states, urging his fellow Republicans to broaden their party if they want to win back the White House.

“We need to be like the rest of America,” Paul told a sold-out New Hampshire Republican Party unity dinner attended by nearly 500.

“We're going to win when we look like America,” he told he an enthusiastic, almost entirely white crowd. “We need to be white, we need to be brown, we need to be black, we need to be with tattoos, without tattoos, with pony tails, without pony tails, with beards, without."

Paul added that the party needed to convey its belief in limited government in a positive way. “We need to be a party that proclaims our message like the man coming over the hill singing ... then we'll be a great party again,” he said.

But of course he's not speaking to minorities. He's speaking to repug whites who are slightly embarrassed by the GOP's blatant racism, and want to be reassured that all they have to do is talk about how much they want diversity, and people will stop calling them nasty names.

It would be pure political suicide, if not for the voter suppression that will prevent all those minorities from voting for Democratic candidates.
