Dean Slammed Over Confederate Flag Comment

"I still want to be the candidate for guys with Confederate flags in their pickup trucks,"the former Vermont governor was quoted as saying in Saturday's Des Moines Register. "We can't beat George Bush unless we appeal to a broad cross-section of Democrats."

Dean said Saturday that he was intending to encourage the return of Southern voters who have abandoned the Democrats for decades but are disaffected with the Republicans.

What is wrong with a confederate flag?

Is it still the 1800s?

Who lost? Guys that have been dead for 110 years?

i don't have anything against it. but everyone is coming down on this pres candidate for saying he wants to be the guy that people with confederate flags vote for.
and they use to fly the flag at the albama state capitol but quit flying it because they were accused of being racist.

There is nothing wrong with it.

How is it different than wearing a Malcolm X shirt?

People get the wrong impression....General Lee was against slavery and all it stood for.

It's just a flag. I don't care about it, or the idiots who feel like they need to have one.
