Obama "Animal?" SJC Repubs Lustily Cheer Racist U.S. Senate Candidate, SW FL Developer CARLOS BERUFF

Our racist, Confederate-KKK-Republican-dominated Northeast Florida locale, ST. JOHNS COUNTY, FLORIDA was rightly called "one of the last bastions of the Ku Klux Klan" by then County Commission Chair Ben Rich, Sr. in a 2008 interview with Folio Weekly. On May 12, 2016, St. Johns County, Flori-DUH Republican Executive Committee event attendees lustily applauded SW Florida white supremacist developer CARLOS BERUFF, running for the Republican nomination for the U.S. Senate, as he referred to our Commander-in-Chief, President Barack Obama, as 'that animal." Every St. Johns County Republican Executive Committee member who applauded those racist remarks must apologize, hold their head in shame or resign. Now. Despicable.

How many racist KKK St. Johns County Republicans applauded the racist Obama-hating speech on May 12, 2O16, a date that will live in infamy?

At least four public officials -- RANDY BRUNSON, WILLIAM McCLURE, GARY HOWELL and JERRY THOMAS CAMERON.

Florida Senate GOP Candidate Calls Obama An ‘Animal’
“He wants us to be just another country. I don’t want to be another country,” says Carlos Beruff.

WASHINGTON — Carlos Beruff, a Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate from Florida, repeatedly referred to President Barack Obama as an “animal” at a county GOP meeting on Thursday.

Addressing party faithful at a St. John’s County GOP gathering, Beruff accused Obama of destroying America and its military.

“Unfortunately, for seven and a half years this animal we call president, because he’s an animal, OK — seven and a half years, has surgically and with thought and very smart, intelligent manner, destroyed this country and dismantled the military under not one, not two, but three secretary of defenses,” he said. “And they’ve all written books about it.”

“Sooner or later, you’re going to find, this was a plan, he wants us to be just another country. I don’t want to be another country. I want to be the United States of America, the greatest country in the world,” he added, garnering a round of applause.

Beruff is one of five Republicans vying to replace retiring Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.). A member of a South Florida water board with a real estate background, Beruff has been compared to both Donald Trump and Florida Gov. Rick Scott (R), who endorsed the presumptive GOP nominee earlier this year.

Last month, Beruff called for a ban on travel that goes even further than Trump’s controversial proposal to block all Muslims from coming to the United States — banning all people from the Middle East from entering the country.

Penchant for bombast aside, Beruff remains a long-shot candidate for Senate. He currently stands at just 1 percent in the HuffPost Pollster polling average of the GOP race, trailing behind all of his rivals, including U.S. Reps. David Jolly and Ron DeSantis of Florida.

U.S. Rep. Patrick Murphy (Fla.), the leading Democratic candidate in the race, denounced the comments in a statement sent to HuffPost on Sunday.

“Mr. Beruff’s statement is not only offensive, but extremely disrespectful to President Obama’s incredible service to our nation,” the statement read. “I’m proud to stand by President Obama and his commitment to fighting for Florida families, and I call on Mr. Beruff to immediately apologize for his disrespectful comments. In the U.S. Senate, our diverse state deserves better than Mr. Beruff’s clear record of bigotry.”
