A Democratic Nation or Republican?
I had a couple of conversations today on the big difference in the diversity of the audience between the Democratic and Republican conventions. On Wednesday night while watching Paylin speak, I only saw one black person during the whole time she was on the mic and not one Asian, Latino or anyone else of color. On Thursday night I saw maybe 2 black people. Now during the Democratic convention last week it was a sea of diversity. Most of the people I spoke with today regarding this observation were white and they agreed and said something is scary about the absence of other nationalities at the Republican convention. If those two conventions were an advertisement of our nation to come, before voting we need to ask ourselves which one of those worlds do we want to live in?
