In a Freudian slip, the Democratic vice-presidential nominee appeared to inadvertently admit Thursday that Democratic policies are inherently harmful to white Americans.

While speaking to a group of black Baptists in New Orleans, Tim Kaine seemed to suggest that in order to achieve “equity” between the races, white people need to willingly submit themselves to a state of repression similar to what black Americans have experienced.

“I’ve never been treated badly in life because of my skin color or my gender,” Kaine said. “I think the burden is on those of us who are in the majority — Caucasians. We have to put ourselves in a place where we are the minority.”

Sen. Kaine is certainly in the right party, as turning white Americans into a minority — and a minority against which other races are able to direct hate with impunity — is the inevitable result of the policies promoted by the Democratic Party and the Left at large.

Indeed, despite what Democrats tell the public, progressive policies do very little to raise black people up from poverty and a lot to bring all Americans down to a level of government dependency and economic immobility.
