fyi: white separatist running for l.a. superior court judge

This is something voters in Los Angeles should know about the upcoming June 3 election... In the race for Los Angeles Superior Court judge, if you're not careful, you could be voting for a bona fide racist—a racial separatist who once called for restricting U.S. citizenship to persons "of the European race" and deporting blacks, Asians, Latinos and others who don't meet his racial criteria. The candidate is Bill Johnson: Stealth election.

Under the name James O. Pace, he wrote the racial exclusion as a proposed amendment to the U.S. Constitution and a 1985 book supporting it. That's racist! But wait, there's more. Under the name Daniel Johnson, he ran a losing race for Congress in Wyoming in 1989 with a Ku Klux Klan organizer as his campaign manager. As William Johnson, he ran losing race for Congress in Arizona in 2006.

I'm not kidding. This is all true. The guy has a secret racist past, like something out of the movies. And this guy might actually win this judicial race, unless voters in Los Angeles find out who he really is. Do not let this happen. Johnson's opponent is Los Angeles Superior Court Commissioner James Bianco. More here: Judicial candidate's racial separatist past exposed. (Thanks, Emi.)
