'The DA was trying to fight off a narrative that it was a white party" ........WHY?

Maybe Mr James would like to explain what is wrong with being perceived as a white party. In fact what is wrong with being a white anything. It is a simple question and a simple answer will do. Please do not tell me that black people will not vote for a white party. Voters who think like that will be quite at home in one of the plethora of black parties given that race is what appears to drive them. Intellectual acuity certainly is not a factor in their reasoning.

Could this have something to do with the fact that many of the black politicians in the DA have an overblown sense of self esteem and conceit that is now out of control. Maybe it is the trough that beckons.

I wonder if the people responsible for perpetuating this "white" issue realise just how profoundly racist they are.
