Let's play "Find The Black Person!"

[MADem]

Paul Ryan took a big old 'honking' (Yes, that was bitter and pointed intended to mimic as well as mock the clueless racism of this gathering) a selfie with Young Republicans!!!!

A picture IS worth a thousand words!!!!

[liberal N proud]

1. Hiding behind the column

[The Polack MSgt]

2. Well isn't that a swell photo

Of real Americans.

[Croney]

3. I finally found her!

But maybe she's a cardboard cutout.

[The Polack MSgt]

4. You know you have a problem

With diversity when Paul Ryan is the darkest face in the room

[treestar]

17. Lol

[Doodley]

5. Odd, but there seems to be plenty of black Trump spokespeople/supporters on Fox and CNN

Some polls find zero black support for GOP voting intentions, and this photo does paint a thousand words. You know, if there was a single black person there, he or she would be positioned right at the front.

[k8conant]

6. but she's not.

She's halfway back on the right.

[Doodley]

7. Well found! I take it back and apologize to Paul Ryan and the GOP!

The racial diversity is much better than I thought!

[MADem]

9. Be funny as hell if she slid in there on a dare/bet.... nt

[MADem]

8. You know that guy who does that TV show "Dirty Jobs?"

Those people are probably doing a dirtier job than he ever did (and I've heard he's a wingnut, so he'd be a fine one to interview those folks).

I have got to believe that family gatherings, reunions, holidays, etc. have got to be awkward for those quislings!

There IS a black person in this picture--I'll give you a hint--she is way to the back and to the right.

[brer cat]

10. And another one

third row from the back just left of Ryan's head. Just part of the face visible.

[MADem]

13. For some reason--and I freely admit I could be wrong--

I'm getting a south Asian vibe from that player!

[brer cat]

15. Certainly could be.

The only thing for sure is that it is a sea of white faces, the perfect image of republicanism.

[MrScorpio]

12. Found her! nt

[MrScorpio]

11. Found the Latino or Asian dude. nt

[MADem]

14. There are two people in that room who are not melanin deficient.

They're both in the back of the room--one slightly to the left - looks like a guy, but I am not positive, and a woman on the right side of the room in the back. I think the guy is south Asian (but I could be wrong) and the woman is of African heritage.

The bottom line, though, is that is some blinding whiteness up in there. That is just too white a crew IMO.

[lib87]

16. Well on Their Way to to Political Scandals

Cocaine use, prostitutes, hypocrisy, infidelity...continued bad haircuts.

[MADem]

18. They all look like they were made at the same factory that churned out those

Stepford wives....

[MADem]

19. OMG, BUT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!! There's MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Look what some GENIUS did on TWITTER....LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

23. That really freaked me out at first.

I thought I was losing my mind.

[MADem]

25. GOP Children of the Corn, House of Representatives-style! nt

[1StrongBlackMan]

20. She's in the upper right hand corner ...

about four people in ... behind the guy in the gray suit ... though photoshop might be an issue here.

[treestar]

21. What's funny is the need some people have

when confronted with that photo of overwhelmingly white people, have the need to closely look to attempt to find someone who is not white.

Like that undermines that point.

[betsuni]

22. It's hilarious! One glance is all you need, yet some people are whipping out magnifying glasses

and bickering over skin tones.

[MADem]

24. LOL! I know!!!

What it does, really, is ILLUSTRATE the point!

Reminds me of Tee Rump... who rambled along at one of his speeches saying something like "The BLACKS" (said with that emphasis) "just LOVE me--I mean, they LOVE ME!! See, I got my African American" (what a choice of words and the SINGULAR, too) "right HEEE-ah!!"

I think the pic of all the interns with Ryan's face, though, was a stroke of pure genius. An effort well worth it!!

[Warpy]

26. I think it reinforces it

That party has so few POC that it's outdone "Where's Waldo?" in a random gathering.

The only thing worse would be if Ryan had insisted on seating both of them in the front row as tokens.

[Gothmog]

27. Good luck in finding a non-white at the GOP convention

[MADem]

28. I am watching! I saw "one!!!!" Ooops, never mind--he's security.... LOLOL! nt

[Blue_Tires]

29. Holy damn...
