Presidential ‘Dirty Campaign’
So, now the Republicans are guilty of using “subliminally racist” messages in their campaign. How hypocritical can Dukakis and Lloyd Bentsen get! They are the ones who have been trying to whip up hysteria about “foreigners” buying up huge parcels of American real estate and about “foreign” competitors.
Who are those foreign investors they are subliminally targeting--the Japanese, of course. And who are those unfair foreign competitors--the Japanese, the Koreans, and the Taiwanese.
