Video: "You are so white, you are extremely white"

A YouTube video produced by "The Message," an online "media hub," depicts an actor playing Mitt Romney getting advice on what to say to the civil rights group. In their press release, the producers said the video, "Lacerates Romney and his advisors as they prepare for his speech to NAACP in Houston on Wednesday."

The man playing the Romney advisor tells the Romney character, "You are so white, you are extremely white, you make Wonder Bread look like pumpernickel," then he advises the Romney actor to "Go on out there and get all Mormon, Martin Luther King on them, you're going to be great."

According to a news release, The Message said it plans to use videos to "say things that Democrats are afraid to say, connect with young voters-many of whom are alienated by today's political climate, and give smart and insightful voices an opportunity to contribute to the debate." The Daily Kos said of the video: "Driving The Message are Razor & Tie co-founder Cliff Chenfeld, former Media Matters for America president Eric Burns, former AOL chief creative officer and co-founder of theknot.com Michael Wolfson, and former New York Times journalist Andrew Zipern. The Message’s unique mix of entertainment experience, political and messaging savvy, online creativity and distribution expertise, and a journalist’s eye makes it the platform Democrats and progressives need to lift their voices above the Republicans and have a cultural conversation that molds this election cycle and beyond."

This amazing piece of rank stereotyping which represents the views of several well known individuals within the progressive movement requires no explanation other than what is seen. It is as if they have never read anything written by Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams, Deroy Murdock, Herman Cain, Star Parker, Lurita Doan, LaShawn Barber, Larry Elder, Ken Blackwell, Allen West, Harry Jackson Jr., Charles Payne, J.C. Watts, or Michael Steele, too mention but a few.....let alone visit the Project 21 website.
