EXCERPT:
JONES: "I think that the President’s record on race is clear. He was sued twice by the Justice Department for discriminating against black and brown people in his real estate business. He went after five young men of color who were falsely accused of raping a young white woman and refused to back up off of those comments even after it was proven that they were false. You know, the record goes on and on. I think that beyond even arguing about whether or not he’s a racist, I think we need to look at his record and I think we need to look at his policies. His policies say that he doesn’t want Haitians here. His policies say that he doesn’t want people from African countries here. His policies say that he prefers to say that people on both sides are to blame when racism comes up. I think that his record and his policy show clearly who he is."
