I wouldn’t say that, given she had Mark Penn and the worst-run campaign since Jumanji Carter’s re-election attempt.

I win!

Because this will be the women’s election and neanderthals will be their own worst enemy.

Along with the graph, here’s the really interesting thing (lifted from my post):

Also telling: While DiversityInc.com was able to get extensive feedback from the people involved in the Democratic candidates’ campaigns, nobody on the Republican side would talk to them despite repeated efforts on DiversityInc.com’s part to contact them.

Got that? Not a single person in ANY of the Republican campaigns would talk to Diversity.com about this. NONE. Whereas every single Democratic campaign was more than happy to talk with these people.

I used to think that the top-level Republicans were only pretending to be racists for the rubes. Now I’m not so sure.

I imagine that he thinks you’ll notice. Why should he care? You weren’t going to vote for him anyway.

Guiliani has only one woman on his staff. People don’t think women of color notice these things? Fuck you, assholes! (I’m talking to the candidates.)

Ohhh never mind.

Rachel, that’s right, they could be APIA men but given her previous staffs, I think they’re women. Her mentor was Marian Wright Edelman.

And although I don’t agree or disagree with donna darko (mainly because I don’t know much about Clinton’s mentors), we don’t know the race and gender combos of the people.

“I think Clinton may be lying. I have a very hard time believing that over half are people of color.”

Rachel S, what makes you say this, exactly? I have a hard time believing she would lie about something that would be so easy to fact-check, especially when her competition isn’t as worried about a great mix of races among their staff?

Also, given that the linked page describes the survey (itself behind a paywall) as mentioning that there was no direct contact between the survey group and any of the Republican candidates, and given that the names and identities of campaign staffers are (I think) a matter of public record, I doubt that Clinton had the opportunity to lie.

Also, Clinton’s campaign is mostly so much less White than the other Dem campaigns because it is so much more Asian, and her campaign has been attacked (with obvious anti-Asian bias) in the media for very actively pursuing Chinese American donors (something which would probably benefit from having a significant number of Chinese American staffers), so these staff proportions seem to line up with other descriptions of Clinton’s campaign.

No, Robert.

The U.S. is 67% white so Edwards’ staff would be closest.

Even when she was First Lady, her staffs were mostly women of color. Imagine if Karl Rove was a woman of color. That’s what we’re talking about here. Her mentors were also women of color.

You mean like Ms. Rice?
