All The White Supremacists Running For Office In 2018
There are at least three white supremacists currently running for Congress, and a fourth running for a state House seat. Two other candidates — one of whom can unambiguously be called a white supremacist, and one who has ties to white supremacist groups but denies being a white supremacist himself — announced runs for public office, but have since dropped out of their respective races.

Still more Republican candidates, many of whom are running for re-election, have used white supremacist slogans, invited white supremacists to official government events, or granted interviews to racist or anti-Semitic publications.

All sorts come out for state primary season. Is David Duke running again for a Dem nomination?
Nah, he's run in both Parties, but now a days he's a solid (and vocal) President Trump supporter. Much like Arthur Jones was (he regrets that support now, because President Trump has: “surrounded himself with hordes of Jews.”. :wave:
tulc(thinks only one of the people listed is running as a Democrat) :scratch:

Thanks for posting this article, I think it shows that we are going to have to really do our homework.
I don't think granting an interview and be at the same rally someone else is, is enough evidence to judge someone to be a white supremacist. The one below is pretty weak evidence, by these standards musician Daryl Davis could be accused of agreeing with white supremacists.
Rep. Lou Barletta (R-Pa.) is running for U.S. Senate in Pennsylvania. In 2006, when he was mayor of Hazelton, Pennsylvania, Barletta granted an interview to the American Free Press, the same anti-Semitic publication that Joe Arpaio has spoken to.

Barletta also once held a rally with musician Paul Topete, who is known for promoting anti-Semitic conspiracy theories.

You mean the 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon is involved in some of these accusations? ;)

Some of those are not white supremicist based on some things they have said. Saying that 'diversity is not our strength' is not white supremist. Neither is saying we shouldn't apolgoize for slavery. Why? Because nobody alive today has anything to apologize for. Slavery is something that happened long time ago. Diversity is not our strength because it engenders too many groups with divergent agendas, and therefore, nothing gets done. That statement doesn't say that we should export brown or black people, it just recognizes that it's hard to come together and get things done for the common good.

I'm not defending any of these people, and I won't condemn someone for having a Confederate flag, either. If they demonstrate racism, or white supremacy, then they stand condemned. I also don't hold it against someone if they get endorsed by David Duke. I'd give the candidate a chance to speak about it, but even silence doesn't indicate acceptance. Personally, I don't care if someone endorses a candidate. I look at the issues. I remember how hateful segregation was, and I abhor racism. But I'm careful about tossing epithets at people based on association, or innuendo.

These days if you're not pro-white genocide you're a white supremacist.

No! They have been declared white supremacists by HuffPo, therefore they are white supremacists. And if you don't agree they're white supremacists then that means you are a white supremacist too.

I think that's the way it works these days. ^_^

Hi all,

I think it worth pointing out that 'white supremacy' is the ideological thinking that the white race of people are superior to the other races. If someone promotes that, then yes, I'd agree that they don't quite have their heads screwed on right. Given the same opportunities and upbringing most all people of all races can get to the same place in life. There are a lot of dumb white people.

Someone wrote about diversity not being a good thing. Diversity is fine if all we're talking about is skin color or nationality. A black person can have the same motivations and aspirations as a white person. A Mexican can have the same motivations and aspirations as an Irishman. If, on the other hand, we're talking about diversity in ideology, then yes, it can present a stumbling block for society at large. The concept of Sharia law and those who idealize it, are not going to be able to get along well with those who promote Christian law. They are just two totally different ideas regarding how people should live. Skin color or race is not a guarantee of such problematic diversity. There are, for example, many middle easterners who are christians. They claim to have trusted Jesus just as many Americans have. These people, since the difference is only in race or nationality, should be able to get along pretty fine. There are many black people who strive for the same daily bread here in America that white people are striving for. They believe equally in the rule of law and are both generally looking for the same things in their expectations of the right to live peaceably with one another.

So diversity, in and of itself, isn't necessarily a bad thing. Here in the United States you'd be hard pressed to put 100 people together that didn't have some diversity.

God bless,
In Christ, ted

Noting that the guy in tulc's beloved Illinois is only on the ballot because his state is effectively a one-party system. ;)
noting dodging the question doesn't actually answer the question. :wave:
