The racist, xenophobic, cowardly minority votes in Trump.
Ah, there we go with the racist, xenophobic, lost the popular vote shtick! If you think 60 million people are racist and xenophobic, then you probably need to have a psychological analysis done.
Have fun being in the MINORITY for the next four years while the rational, reasonable adults make the decisions.

Or you think Breitbart isn't a racist website.
I don't read Breitbart regularly, because I hate the layout and the popups, but I occasionally read it and I've never seen anything even marginally racist.
Now, I use the real definition of racism, not the new one where every minority shits rainbows and burps sparkly stars and is infallible.

The best part of this? Lewis's district has a lower crime rate than downtown Indianapolis (majority white).
Why doesn't Trump get his own VP to shape up his own capital city before going on rants against civil rights icons?

I asked for an example and you linked an editorial from another publication.
Most of that article was controversial stuff that Steven Bannon and Milo have said, outside of Breitbart, but still not racist. Leslie Jones? LOL, she's said enough racist stuff on Twitter to get banned 10 times.
I'll wait for you to link a racist article from Breitbart, but I won't hold my breath.

I believe this is bullshite at worst, and a gray area up for debate at best.
The law was/is crystal clear.
quote:Stanley Ann Dunham would have had to be 19yrs old to convey citizenship in the case of an overseas birth.
On December 24, 1952, the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 (the "1952 Statute") became effective. As under the previous statute, where both parents were U.S. citizens, one parent would have to have resided in the United States prior to the child's birth in order to transmit U.S. citizenship. The meaning of residence previously applied under the 1940 Statute was essentially the same as under the 1952 Statute.
In the case of a child born to one U.S. citizen parent and one alien parent, the U.S. citizen parent now had only to be physically present in the United States or its outlying possessions prior to the child's birth for 10 years, at least 5 of which were after the age of 14. "Physical presence" was different from the concept of "residence" which had applied under the previous statute. The physical presence requirement could be satisfied by mere presence in the United States even if the person had not established a legal residence there.
The 1952 Statute imposed a revised requirement on any such children to be continuously physically present in the United States for at least 5 years between the ages of 14 and 28 in order to retain citizenship. The retention requirement was retroactively applied to any person born on or after May 24, 1934.

That is far from crystal clear definitely open to interpretation.
The children of our citizens should always be citizens, regardless of the details of their birth.
And it is indefensible for that to be the law for our citizens, while we simultaneously allow anchor babies to gain citizenship.

Which ones do you consider racist? I asked for a single example.

Which part do you see as "open to interpretation"?

The fact that you quoted an analysis of the law and the author's interpretation, not the actual law.
The law was changed and updated many times and many sections referenced old laws and carried over or didn't carry over certain sections. Certain sections that weren't referenced were assumed to be in force. It's quite a hodge podge.
Just the fact that it made a distinction between legitimate and illegitimate tells me it wouldn't withstand a real challenge.
It's all a moot point now, thankfully.

When you district includes Buckhead and Druid Hills, no shite.
How about a direct comparison between downtowns?
