Democrats, liberals, and left-wingers have openly embraced the concept that the United States of America is a country founded on racism and white supremacy. It’s been this way for decades; this is not a secret.
They routinely claim the country is systematically racist and blame it for any adverse sociopolitical condition involving non-white people. It’s repeated behavior that GOP voters regularly admonish. Yet, despite these outcries, only one Republican presidential candidate dared to rebuke their agenda-driven extremism on race: Larry Elder.
UP FOR DEBATE: TRUMP, DESANTIS, AND 2024 GOP HOPEFULS’ STANCE ON CRIME
Systemic racism in the 21st century is left-wing extremist propaganda that Democrats, liberals, and other left-wingers use to manipulate the public, influence voters, and amass political power. Larry Elder has been saying this for a long time. Spreading this message is one of the main objectives of his presidential campaign. It’s why he deserves to be on the debate stage on Aug. 23 in Milwaukee. No matter what candidate anyone supports, Elder’s message is one the entire country needs to hear.
Why? Because Elder knows if the misinformation of systemic racism continues to be accepted, it will negatively affect society and the political spectrum for generations to come. It’s a political lie that the Left will continue weaponizing unless it’s completely eradicated. And while other Republican candidates fight among each other over petty squabbles that are temporary issues meant to rile people up and distract them, Elder is aware of the magnitude of this ideological menace and the threat it poses to the nation’s sustainability.
Last week, during an appearance on the popular radio show The Breakfast Club with host Charlamagne Tha God, Elder exposed some of the left-wing hypocrisy of people who dwell on systemic racism, highlighting some of Charlamagne’s double standards and selective outrage, including his indifference when Joe Biden appeared as a guest on the show in 2020 and claimed a black person could only really be black if he/she supported Biden.
“And when Joe Biden insulted you by saying, ‘You ain’t really Black if you don’t know whether you want to vote for me or vote for Donald Trump,’ it seems to me that should have been a wake-up call on your part,” Elder said in response to some of Charlamagne’s comments about racism against people of color in the country today.
“How dare this guy come in here and insult you, a black man, and tell you, ‘You gotta think a certain kinda way.’” Elder said. “I’m amazed that you weren’t mad about that.”
Elder also explained the false narratives of systemic racism and the overlooked and ignored epidemic of fatherlessness in the country and did so on a radio program where neither the hosts nor the audience shared his views. This was important because it helped bring awareness of these issues to a group that most likely was unaware of them or had previously ignored them.
“I want to bring to the table two things,” Elder said in January on the Megyn Kelly Show before officially announcing his campaign. “The first is the centrality of having fathers in the home that we don’t talk enough about, and the second is I think I can debunk this lie about systemic racism because I’m from the hood. My father grew up in Athens, Georgia, during the real Jim Crow South. I think I get to debunk this notion in a more passionate and, I think, credible way than maybe anybody else can.”
The Democrats’ desire to portray the country as racist is omnipresent. They want to convince every child forced to attend public school and endure public education that this country is systemically racist. They want to convince every voter that the nation is comprised of white supremacists seeking to suppress anyone who is a non-white person.
It’s a problem that must be dealt with, not ignored and just hoped to go away — the strategy that most Republicans have used for decades. Elder knows this, and it’s one of the main things that separates him from other candidates.
“What’s happened? A Democrat named Lyndon Johnson launched what he called the war on poverty, and since then, we have incentivized women to marry the government and incentivized men to abandon their financial and moral responsibility,” Elder said at earlier stops during his campaign. “The other side does not talk about it because they caused it, and our side does not talk about it for fear of being called systemically racist if you’re white or being called the black face of white supremacy, as the L.A. Times called me, if you’re black.”

Republicans tired of hearing that the U.S. is a country of racist white people have an opportunity this week: help get Larry Elder to the debate stage. They don’t have to agree with him. They don’t have to vote for him. But unlike other candidates, Elder’s campaign has one main goal: to debunk the lie about systemic racism. Give the man a chance to be heard.
“Even if I’m not your guy, even if I’m not the nominee, if I can get the party and the Democrats and the media to begin talking about these kinds of things, then I would have done my job for my party, and more importantly I would have done my job for my country,” Elder said.
