I guess the days of code words and dog whistles is behind us. Wonder how long it will be before the n word starts showing up in political advertising again?

The n-word will never be used,not officially anyway.Way to blatant,even for cons.

The racial slights will come in the form of code words and phrases.Nod nod,wink wink.

Like calling President Obama,Barry.

Right Rich?

They have target audience to pander to.I mean jeesshhh......

Oh yes, O59. It's nothing but racist code to refer to someone by the name they went by as a kid. Same with using the middle name, right?

And I've never called President Obama, "Barry." Candidate Obama, oh hell yeah, but never President Obama.

Of course nothing on the topic.

I figured you would be OK with that type of behavior.

Nod nod,wink wink.Say no more,say no more....

Or in the form of race-baiting,like when rich pushed the new black panther/Obama connection ugliness.

Stuff like that.But never the n-word itself.
