In a free-market economy, reward
is based on value. In 2014, all productive members of America have the ability
to provide value to any organization and should be rewarded equally. This simplistic premise should be
true in America, the beacon of freedom for the world.
However,
the opposite appears to be reality when examining political campaigns,
according to a study conducted by the New Organizing Institute (NOI). The
study examined staff of political campaigns and revealed two interesting facts:
1) democratic campaigns have more diverse staff than republican counterparts
and 2) Democrats pay minorities significantly less than Republicans.

As
reported by The
Daily Beast, the facts revealed in the NOI study are a dismal
reality. Political operative Michael Gomez Daly worked on two
congressional campaigns in 2012 with similar budgets. On one campaign, Daly,
who describes himself as “a very light-skinned Hispanic,” was brought in as field
director, primarily for his skills as a Latino operative who could reach out to
the Hispanic community. On the second campaign, where they did not know he was
Hispanic, “I just came in as ‘Michael Daly,’ instead of ‘that Latino
operative,’” he said. “Right off
the bat they offered me twice the amount for the same job.” Read more Daily Beast
Congratulations
go to Democrats for their outreach to include minority voices; however, how can
they claim to be the party for equality when they are proven to not practice
what they preach? For decades, Progressives have painted Republicans as old,
white, racist men. This divisive portrait has garnered them minority admiration, but, it appears, this support has been won through deceit as revealed by
their hypocrisy.
