Geez, there's no winning you guys! He is damned either ways. Just give that man some time. Just let him run. Don't criticize for the heck of it.

This👏🏽Right👏🏽Here👏🏽 Colorblind= AntiBlack Is this clear enough? Stand down HowardSchultz. You aren’t ready, no matter how many times you invoke “the projects.”

This guy proves you don’t have to be interesting to be rich he’s like porridge without brown sugar

rolandsmartin “I DON’T SEE COLOR” In my Cabinet. In my Agenda. In my White House. In my Decisions. In my Executives. In my Supreme Court. In my Future Administration. . HowardShultz CNN donlemon ChrisCuomo CuomoPrimeTime CNN Unfiltered BringTheFunk

Eugene_Scott Well, he won't see any 'colored' voters at his rallies then, either.

rolandsmartin Nice try; I for one am tired of the 'I don't see color' line. It's b.s. As individuals we r 'visual.' Is he gonna say he didn't notice his girlfriend is Latina, brown. If u mean u don't judge a person by his or her skin color then say that. I shouldn't have 2 help you w/this.

What if he's actually colour blind. Like cans distinguish between certain colour by looking at them. You are pretty much mocking a disabled person at that point.

Or he’s colorblind? Are you disability-shaming him?

He is also taste blind

He's essentially saying that he doesn't recognize or understand the problems surrounding race in our society.

Keep the dividing going, work it to death

There may be few White people alive that could make such a statement - he has a lot to learn. He will be eaten or used if he finds any substantial following.

Translation: He's ignorant of the inequities of racial minorities in this country.

If you're colour blind in North America, then you are white and pretending.

Stop with the antisemitism, it’s obvious what you’re up to. Why are none of the non-Jewish candidates against Trump getting this treatment?

Ya what a tactless, feckless comment

he's not really colourblind. It;s just that he really only cares about the colour green

That’s funny. I could’ve sworn that MLK urged us to be *exactly* that.

Sure he's 'color-blind'...unless you want to use the bathroom.

Maybe that's why he wants to be a independent he's unable to distinguish the colors between Blue or Red ok that's a good reason to be a independent

rolandsmartin Guessing he never watched Colbert routinely make fun of that concept on his old show.

My parents raised me to be colorblind. I had a black girlfriend tell me that was wrong and encouraged racism. I still talk to my parents. I don’t talk to that girlfriend anymore

Which must be how Starbucks ended up being so racist that it had to shut itself down to tell adult employees not to be racist. BoycottStarbucks because the coffee and because Howard Schultz is Trump 2.0.

He only sees “green”💵💸💰💸💰💵💸💰💵💸💶💶

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. knew the best pathway forward would be to stop constantly fixating on racial bias and instead focusing on equal opportunity!

or an exceptionally high amount of privilege.

Please stop with the coverage of this guy. Giving him so much press gives legitimacy to his candidacy. Stop.

It also suggests that he can’t solve it because if he is in fact color blind, he can’t govern a nation that clearly isn’t

sounds like something a raciest would say, any rational human being would realize that racism is a massive fact and issue, that's like saying i have a colored friend, so i can't be raciest.

Love it when apethitic white folk say this. Gutless.

Deep ignorance...leave it there.

rolandsmartin The liberal media is going to do everything it can to destroy HowardSchultz because they fear he'll make the Democratic loss in 2020 a bigger catastrophe

A total dilettante. No answers, no solutions, no real analysis or introspection. Plus I had a macchiato yesterday and it gave me diarrhea so yeah, I don’t like him.

my aren't you pissy today

Would any racist, looking to run for office, admit to be being a racist? Do leopards change their spots?

Diversity is NOT our strength the ideology of multiculturalism and racial egalitarianism is destroying this country.

The colorblind billionaire.

Here it comes. Doesn’t fit the Dem mold so drum roll please ............ He’s a racist.
