^"Imagine the outrage" does not prove that this guy is hate filled. Of course you are right the media would have a field day if a Republican somewhere were talking about a N word area, or maybe even he couldn't say black area without trouble. But that doesn't make the person hate filled for the vocabulary, that depends on context and intent. You are thinking like a liberal - from the other side -if you think saying cracker makes this guy hate filled.
If you listen to this guy he does not say or demonstrate any hate. This is the way people talk when they think they are amongst friends. He is a very intelligent and extremely realistic guy. Understand that most campaign staff could not really understand what he reveals. They are just mindless drones going along for the cause. At least this one knows its a game of lies to get a result. He is a strategist, and this is the way such a person of all stripes talk when they are able to speak freely. The word cracker is totally irrelevant and meaningless and conveys nothing except that the campaign worker is aware of the demographics involved in the campaign. He has taken the express shortcut in picking this term to convey who he thinks are the majority of voters in Florida, a particular flavor of white voters. Until he said these things on hidden camera he was an asset to his campaign.
It is liberal thinking that attempts to make some word automatically convey hate, and to turn the recipient of the word into some helpless victim in need of codling and liberal care and protection. Any (white) person offended by the word cracker is falling for this type of thinking instead of looking at the context where the casually generalized term meant to bring up a stereotype is used. It is more useful to have speakers reveal their thinking process than to instantly react like the Hannity headline. Hannity is a basic liberal bitch yellow journalist dressed up in fake outrage over so called conservative causes. A sure way to know a story will go nowhere is if Hannity screams about it.
Truth Tiger, don't live in a bubble. Don't fall for the sensationalizing headlines.
The main character in the Veritas video has still done a great service in revealing how the campaigns actually work, something people knew instinctively with the silly promises and platforms they hear (often on both sides.)
In my opinion the proper response is thank you for telling us that Gillum is an extreme leftist and liar. This guy is a kind of TRUTHER and all truthers are welcome IMO. Hannity is intentionally shifting the focus from the great content revealed to trying to make people think this is about "hate."
Edit:
N.B. The Florida Dems rigged a primary victory for Gillum based on exactly this type of thinking about manipulating race blocks and manipulating different shades of moderates and leftys. It will be fun to see it blow up in their faces when this clown loses the race.
