Comments like these are exactly the ones that everybody has to consider before going into trivial aesthetics like charisma, this indifference denies them of their right. How come there hasn't ever been a native american president? They've been in their land longer than anyone, if anything, they would have greater rights for candidate consideration than anyone. identity politics like this is... about as important as charisma without knowing anything about their respective policies, there's no reason to believe either would have a significant effect on the lives of the marginalized people they represent -- the indigenous MPs in Canada, for instance, haven't stopped the construction of the pipeline that's going across indigenous land. they haven't brought clean drinking water to the reserves that didn't previously have it to use a US example: Obama instituted some shitty quarter-of-the-way-there healthcare, but aside from that he wasn't significantly different from any previous president. he's just another wealthy asshole. the native american would probably be a similar case --- peanut butter and dick <cite>averagejoel posted [p:931957467] in Would you ...
