Republican Convention

I watched the Republican Convention, with the intent to comment on it. I must admit that I was stunned. I am a black male baby boomer. I was born in the middle of the last century. I have felt for the majority of my adult life, that blacks should be active in both major political parties at  the very least. In the state of Texas , I have been  delegate to state conventions of both parties at different times. When George W. Bush was the nominee of the Republican  party in Philadelphia I felt elated. The joy was short lived. I therefore consider this my political home and I await a time when I can return and dialogue.  Enough said.

This post is dated so let me be concise . The concepts that define Mitt Romney’s convention was that it was steeped in deception ( The president did not. denigrate those who built a business. He merely said that don’t forget those who aided you. It’s the we as opposed to the I.) Romney’s religion is of no import to me, however as a person he seems to have no aversion to lies and half truths. This was his convention and it bombed.  I was totally surprised.
