We're going back to July 17, 1980, in Detroit, Michigan, the convention which nominated Ronaldus Magnus. At this convention, Jimmy Carter (who was the sitting president) was eviscerated. Now, Jimmy Carter wasn't black, and so at that time there were no allegations that criticizing Carter equaled racism. But I'll guarantee you that, at that time, Republicans were every bit as racist as they are today, according to allegations of the media and the Democrats."
