11. I think there's a difference between saying "Indian Time" and "Injun time"...
and there's also a difference between saying it when you are and Indian, and saying it to an Indian.

If I was a Republicker strategist, I wouldn't have complained about it.

I know that Republickers are on pretty shaky ground when it comes to racism.

Instead, I would have tried to find an un-official back-channel to a non-partisan group and let them raise a fuss.

Hearing a Republicker complain about racism is like a Nazi complaining about anti-semitism.

I know why the Republicker complained, though. He was afraid the Democrats would steal his party's platform.
