  Speaker 1: Hello, it's Phil Hendry with another Radio Archive Hour from
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: our Hall of Fame radio show and our website philhendryshow.com.
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: Our character in this particular segment is a guy named
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: Dean Wheeler who came into our lives as the result
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: of him, I don't know, he had some legal problems
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: in New Jersey. He moved to Northern California and all
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: of a sudden he became like this holistic and very,
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: I don't know, kind of a flower child. And then
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: all of a sudden he's running for supervisor up in
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: San Francisco for a political office. And he tells us
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: for his kickoff, he's having a barbecue and he needs
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: black people in attendance because he wants to make sure
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: that everybody knows he has a rainbow coalition, but he
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: doesn't want more than seven or eight and they're not
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: allowed in the house. Jesus. Here he is. Here's Dean.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: Dean Wheeler's on the line with us. Dean is a
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: co-director of the Northern California Wellness Project, an alternative homeopathic
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: study center and homeopathic medicine, right, Dean?
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Well, Phil, homeopathy is really beyond medicine because we do
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: believe that medicine is harmful in a general sense. It
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: certainly has its place with an acute illness, but hopefully
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: in our campaign for the supervisor position in San Alvo County,
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: we can promote a little bit of it.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: San Alvo now, for people, is a suburban county adjacent
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: to San Francisco? No.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Yes, Phil. We've got really an idyllic place to live
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: and to work. Our population is around 600,000 people, very
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: racially diverse. And we have a mix of jobs here,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: both manufacturing and service sector. And I've lived here since
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: I moved here.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: Where are you originally from?
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: I'm originally from Buffalo, New York.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: Now, you're interested in running for one of the four
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: supervisor seats in that county, right?
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: And we're going to have our kickoff the campaign barbecue
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: at our residence this weekend, Phil. And my wife is Patricia,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: and we want to have as many people there as possible.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: And why were you interested in running for political office?
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Well, I've been a lifelong Democrat, and the northern suburbs
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: around San Francisco tend to be a little bit more conservative.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: And we do believe very strongly in the platform of
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: the Democratic Party. I am a liberal, and I don't
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: think that's a dirty word. My wife, Patricia, has been
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: a longtime advocate for women's rights and women's issues and
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: a longtime advocate for increasing child support and spousal support monies.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: And I've been there to help her every step of
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: the way.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: So let me ask you about your barbecue. It's this weekend.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: And you are looking at people, anybody?
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Well, we're looking for our constituents here in the county,
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: people that we want to support us, especially, as I
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: mentioned to you, people of color, the minority people. We're
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: hoping I can extend a hand to them. I really
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: want to sort of maybe, my reputation is not often
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: squared with who I am.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: Why do you say that?
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: Why do I say that?
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Does that have to do with? possible minority voters when
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: you say your reputation?
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't know why it is, but my reputation
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: seems to be that I have some problem with people
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: of color. And I can assure you.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: You don't?
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: No, absolutely. I'm a lifelong Democrat. I guess it might
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: stem from the fact that I don't know a lot
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: of them. I don't know... I've never really been.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: And I want to run a campaign that people will understand.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: I've never really been comfortable shaking hands with them, but
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: I'm worried that people are going to see this and
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: they're going to think I'm a conservative and I'm a
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: lifelong Democrat.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: When you say that you don't want to shake hands
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: with them, what is that about? You support civil rights, right?
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: Phil, I absolutely do. It's just that with the Wellness
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: Center being located here in an area that is predominantly... White.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: I come from upstate New York. I have a reputation,
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: and a lot of people have, and I think very unfairly,
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: characterized me in ways that I don't understand. I've never
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: been able to make friends with any of them, but
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: I do want to extend.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Well, when you say.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: You've never been able to make friends with any of them, you're...
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: The people of color, minority voters, is who I'm speaking of.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: And I want to extend a hand to them, despite
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: what people say about me.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Okay, my question is, if you're running for political office,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: what is it that people would say about you when
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: it comes to racial issues or your relationship with the
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: people of color? You're a lifelong Democrat.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: And you are a supporter of the causes of the
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: Democratic Party.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: Without question, yes.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: What would people say about you?
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: Well, they've said some pretty terrible things that just aren't true.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: We are reaching out this Saturday. We're inviting people of color.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: It doesn't have anything to do with me not liking
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: black people. I guess I don't know enough of them,
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: but I don't have any. We want to have a
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: representation of black people at our barbecue, not because it's
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: for appearances, but because we really want them to be there.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: There's going to be a lot of press, and I
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: don't dislike black. Let me say this. I don't dislike
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: black people.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: Well, all right. To the uninitiated, when you say you
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: want to have African-American constituents at your campaign kickoff barbecue,
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: not for appearances, but because you want to hear from them,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: but you also mentioned there's going to be a lot
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: of press there.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: There is going to be press, and I don't want
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: this stereotype of me having a problem with black people
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: to be perpetrated or to continue on. I want it
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: to be... You know, I want the press there and
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: get some pictures of me being with possible black voters
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: so that these rumors, you know, don't continue.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Look, if you don't know any African-Americans, I'm sorry, I
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: don't want to dwell on this, Dean.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: No, I'm perfectly fine with it, Phil. I'm a lifelong Democrat.
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: All right?
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: All right, but if you don't know any African-Americans, how
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: many are likely to show up for your barbecue, you know?
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Well, this is a problem that we have. I do
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: want blacks at the party. to show a diversity, I
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: want our, that's our campaign. We really have a rainbow of,
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: who's the gentleman, Jackson? Phil, who's the gentleman, Jack?
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: Jesse Jackson?
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: He's got the rainbow.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: And that's what we want to do. And so, no,
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: we want all people, especially Africans, I mean African Americans,
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: and I can tell them, you know, the people listening,
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: that if you come to our campaign kickoff, and if
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: I do get elected, I will very much keep in
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: mind that What you did for me, and if you
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: have a problem with anything that the blacks have a
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: problem with, I want to hear about it.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: All right. Dean Whaler, 1-800-449-8686. 1-800-449-8686 is my guest this
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: evening as he runs for the supervisor job one of four.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: This is the only seat that's up, right?
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this is an area of San Alvo County which
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: represents a very eclectic area. As I said, we've got
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: a very diverse racial mix here. And when we have
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: our barbecue this weekend, I need to get members of
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: the press, hopefully we'll get some pictures with Hispanics and Africans.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Well, you don't know any, so you say you don't
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: know any black people.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: I don't dislike black people, though. Please don't misunderstand.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: But how are you going to get them there is
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: the question. And I suppose one of the ways, I guess,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: of being on the program right now.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: Well, here's what I'm proposing. You know, we're only looking
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: for maybe about eight or nine, you know, African Americans
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: to be at our party.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Only eight or nine?
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, any more than that, and I'll tell you what,
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: any more than that and my wife Patricia gets a
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: little nervous.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: But you don't have a problem with black people. You
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: have a reputation of some kind of being.
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I've not really... I've not been comfortable
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: in a room with them before. But I am just
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: asking that when they come to the house, eight or
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: nine is all we need. And, you know, if they
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: could stay in the yard. It's going to be a
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: very fun and safe barbecue. Everyone's... We have a metal
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: detector because of my politics. And these days, Phil, if
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: you're a liberal, they think you're going to... You know,
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: you're aiding the terrorists.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Well, that's unfair. That's absolutely unfair. Although there is... point
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: of view, which has always been that liberals fight fascism.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: Well, we absolutely do.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: But I mean, the fascists are the terrorists.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: Well, that's where you and I are going to have
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: a disagreement, Phil. But again, our kickoff barbecue is this Saturday.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: We are interested in, I don't want anybody to think
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: I'm a Republican because of this problem that I have
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: with blacks. I want people.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: All right, you're going to have to clarify, because I
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: think my listeners deserve. You have a reputation, or there's
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: a perception about you, having a problem with black people?
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: With people of color, yes.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: Okay. You don't want anybody to think that that's true?
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: No, I do not. I don't dislike that.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: You don't dislike them. You're afraid that people are going
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: to think you're a Republican.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Only because of this problem that I've got with
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: the African Americans. And I don't have one, but that's
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: the reputation that I have. I want everyone to know
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: that I'm a Democrat and And I'm even a proud liberal.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: All right, Dean Wheeler with us. He is looking for
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: eight or nine African Americans to be at his campaign
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: barbecue kickoff. And I don't know how you're going.
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: To do it.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: Are you going to screen?
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: Well, we're looking for prominent members of the community, people
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: who want to vote for me. But it sounds so self-serving.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: I just want you to be there and enjoy yourself.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: There's going to be press, and if there are photographs...
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: I certainly want you to come over to me and
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: let me know they're going to take your picture so
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: that I can be a part of that picture.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: You said that please stay in the yard?
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: No.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: No, no.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: You said your wife gets a little nervous with more
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: than nine black folks in the house?
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: No, no.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: I didn't say that. I said my wife's just nervous
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: because of all the people. That's all.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: Oh, I'm sorry.
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: All right. But, you know, if you've ever been an
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: extra in a movie, that's... It's kind of like, you know,
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: being there and then the party will end and we'll
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: ask you to get out. Not get out, but certainly
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: we don't need you anymore.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: All right, 1-800-449-8686. Did you understand, essentially, Bud, his point
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: of view? Well, he's a liberal Democrat. Yeah, he's a
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: liberal Democrat with a reputation of not having a lot
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: of time. He's a liberal Democrat with a reputation for
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: not having a lot of tolerance for black people, and
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: he wants that dispelled. He doesn't want anybody thinking he's
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: a conservative. 1-800-449-8686 is the number here on the Phil
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: Hendry Show. Dean Wheeler is running for the supervisor job
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: in San Alvo County, which is near San Francisco, and
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: he's having his kickoff, the campaign barbecue, this coming weekend.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: He has a problem. He doesn't know that many, or
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: he doesn't know any African Americans, but he needs them
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: at his barbecue. He's made an appeal to some extent
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: for African-Americans who are high profile in the community to
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: be there. He's also said essentially that he doesn't want
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: more than eight or nine at the house. And he
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: also said something else. If they could stay in the yard. Now,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: he says he didn't say that. Well, he said he
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: didn't say it. Well, I heard him say it. I
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: heard him say, I'd like you to stay in the yard.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: My wife gets nervous. The candidacy of Dean Wheeler for
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: supervisor in San Alvo County. We'll be right back on
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: a world-famous Phil Hendry Show. Phil Hendry Show.
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: I know women that will forgive cheating by a man
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: for a short stack of pancakes. And now more on
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: the Phil Hendry Show.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: Dean Wheeler joins me from San Francisco tonight. He is
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: running for a supervisor position in San Alvo County. Dean,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: you were saying about your phone?
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: Well, hopefully we're going to get some calls from people
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: that are going to be interested in.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: Joining in our rainbow coalition to get Dean Whaler elected
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: to the supervisor position. And you can't have a rainbow
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: coalition unless you have all colors of the rainbow. And
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: we're reaching out. We extend a hand to all people
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: of color, whether they're African-American or Hispanic. And the reputation
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: that you've heard or some people may have heard that
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: I have got a serious problem with race, black people.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: I am here to tell you tonight, as we announce
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: our kickoff for our campaign, that I do not have
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: a major problem with anyone of color, and we are
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: running a rainbow coalition, and we're certainly going to do
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: what we can to include everybody. And my phone's going off.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: You can hear it going off right now, Phil.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: Well, who are you taking calls from?
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: Well, hold on for a moment.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: Hello?
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: What we're trying to do is, if we have prominent...
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: uh africans in the community uh who want to be
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: a part of the dean wheeler campaign uh we certainly
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: want you at our kickoff barbecue on saturday and i
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: didn't mean to say anything i i heard you make
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: a comment when when.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: You say that any more than eight or nine and
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: your wife gets nervous i i didn't say that i
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: didn't i thought i heard you say that no.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: I did no i didn't say that i said my
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: wife It cannot entertain that many people, because really we're
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: doing this by ourselves, okay? It didn't have anything to
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: do with black people.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Did you not say if you could stay in the yard?
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: I said that, yes, but that doesn't have to do
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: with their race. That is totally unrelated.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: Well, why would you ask the African Americans who come
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: to your barbecue, a part of your rainbow coalition of voters, which,
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: by the way, rainbow coalition is really kind of Jesse
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: Jackson's thing.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't think you can copyright the word rainbow, Phil.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: Well, all right. Be that as it may, I heard
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: you say the African-Americans will come to your barbecue if
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: you stay in the yard.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Well, most of it's going to be in the yard.
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: That's where the barbecue is.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: Are there going to be people in your house?
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: I imagine there are going to be people in the house, yes.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: Okay, why can't the African-Americans go in there?
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: No, the people are going to come to the house
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: and be using the lavatory and that kind of thing.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: Can black people come into your house to use the lavatory?
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: Phil, I'm not, you know, the house is my wife's domain,
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: so you're asking the wrong guy. Let me tell you,
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: I don't get my wife's way on that.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: All right, 1-800-449-8686, 1-800-449-8686. Dean Wheeler with us, and here
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: is Sonia. Sonia, hi, you're on the Phil Henry Show.
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: Hi there. I'm a new listener, so thanks for having
• 15:52
  Speaker 5: me on.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: Thank you, ma'am.
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: I just have a question for Dean. Your comments make
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: it sound like you think people of color are just blacks.
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: Your comments sound like being very inclusive of what people
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: of color and minority voters mean. People of color.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm a lifetime liberal. I've supported every.
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: No, you keep saying that, but your language matches what
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: one of the rest of the population is. My question is,
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: how do you represent people of color if you don't
• 16:28
  Speaker 5: know any?
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: Well, I've got this reputation for not... Really, you know,
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: wanting to maybe walk across the street when I see
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: a black man come down the street. Be that as
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: it may, I don't know how I got the reputation.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: You just have this reputation, what you're saying.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of people who might think that I'm
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: a conservative when it comes to.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: Well, that doesn't sound conservative. That sounds... Racist. It sounds
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: a little racist.
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: Well, you know what? There's all kinds of people. I
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: haven't spent a lot of time with them, okay?
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: And I don't... I mean, that's... That's my whole question.
• 17:02
  Speaker 5: How can you represent people if you don't know them?
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: Well, I want to get to know them, and that's
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: why I'm asking for eight or nine of them to
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: come over as representatives of the community. We don't have
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: a very big house.
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: Your language, the.
• 17:17
  Speaker 5: Whole them thing. I don't know blacks and Hispanics and
• 17:24
  Speaker 5: Asians and lesbians and gays.
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: Or underrepresented in government.
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: Then think about maybe representing them.
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: Well, let's take them one at a time. You've got me.
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: I'm just trying to get used to the idea of,
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: you know, I do. I want to have African Americans.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: Now you're bringing in lesbians and everything. What's wrong with that? Well,
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: there's nothing wrong with it. And as a lifetime Democrat,
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: I've supported all of the gay things. But I will
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: tell you that at my home, When you have a wife,
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: and as a woman, Sonia, I don't know if you're
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: aware of how much men worry about their wives.
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: Well, what are you talking about?
• 18:07
  Speaker 6: Well, I have a wife, too.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: Okay, so you're a lesbian. All right. Do you worry
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: about her, don't you? I'm sure you worry about her safety.
• 18:15
  Speaker 5: And I'll take the rest of the air on my point.
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: Yes, certainly.
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: I think that you really need to get to know
• 18:21
  Speaker 5: people that you're.
• 18:22
  Speaker 6: Going to represent.
• 18:23
  Speaker 7: Absolutely.
• 18:23
  Speaker 5: And if you're going to represent lesbians, gays, on a
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: city council or whatever the body is.
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: Well, it's a supervisor position. Yeah, you need to know
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: the person. Oh, absolutely. What do you do if your
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: wife gets nervous if there's a lot of blacks in
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: the house? That's all I'm saying.
• 18:41
  Speaker 5: And I think I've made my point. Maybe just one
• 18:43
  Speaker 5: last suggestion, Dean.
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: You're a lesbian?
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: Have cultural competency training. Learn about other cultures. I would
• 18:52
  Speaker 5: really recommend that you take one of those before you
• 18:55
  Speaker 5: run for office.
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: You married a woman?
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: All right, I'm going to take the rest off the air.
• 18:59
  Speaker 5: Get some training.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: Can I ask you one more question, Sonia? What are
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: you taking off the air? What does she mean by that?
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: She's going to listen to the answer.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: She said she was going to take something off the air.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: She's going to listen. Thank you, Sonia. She's going to
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: listen to the answer.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: Well, she says she's a lesbian, and then she's talking
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: about taking it.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: She's listening to the answer.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: And the other comment you made, which is a little
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: troubling to me, I worry about my wife, so you
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: don't want a lot of them in the house?
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: No, no, no, no.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: You know, I've been a liberal Democrat for a long time, okay?
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: And when my words are taken and misconstrued to make
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: me sound like I'm a Republican or a conservative, I'm
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: not even attributing this to Republicans. I'm resentful of that.
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: No, I am in.
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: Full accord with the rights of all minorities. Now I've
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: got a wife. Now that's a whole other thing. Now,
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: I'm fine. But when I've got eight or nine of
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: them tramping around in the House, and I'm out in
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: the end, I don't understand your question.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: I don't understand what you're saying. You've got eight or
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: nine of them tramping around in the house.
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: And my wife's in there by herself?
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: All right, hold on for a minute.
• 20:20
  Speaker 6: 1-800-449-8686.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: 1-800-449-8686. The world-famous Phil Hendry Show with Dean Wheeler, liberal
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: Democrat trying to get black votes. The Phil Hendry Show.
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: The Phil Hendry Show is back.
• 20:29
  Speaker 5: 1-800-449-8686.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: I'm with Dean Wheeler, a candidate for the supervisor job
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: of San Alvo County in northern California, a suburb of

  Speaker 1: San Francisco, on his kickoff barbecue, kickoff the campaign barbecue
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: this Saturday. He'll be at your home there in San Alvo. And, Dean,
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: you are, it seems from our conversation, you want people
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: of color to be involved in your campaign.
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: This is going to be a great rainbow coalition.
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: Okay. And that's fine. And I think you had a
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: nice piece of advice there from a lady who called
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: last hour. She said maybe there's a little bit of
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: racial sensitivity training that you need.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: No, that, again, you are perpetrating a myth. I do
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: not dislike them.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: When you say them, who?
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: What you were talking about, the blacks, the African Americans.
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: All right, let me go to a phone call at 1-800-449-8686. James,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: go ahead. You're on The Phil Hendry Show. Hey, Dean.
• 21:28
  Speaker 6: I have a serious question for you. What do you
• 21:30
  Speaker 6: mean by them? And then you talk about, I want Africans.
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: African-Americans?
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: Of course.
• 21:36
  Speaker 6: No, you said Africans.
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: Well, that's what you.
• 21:38
  Speaker 6: You say African-Americans.
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: Well, many of you.
• 21:40
  Speaker 6: And then you have the audacity to talk about the
• 21:42
  Speaker 6: Rainbow Coalition. Do you understand what has happened in the
• 21:47
  Speaker 6: history of America?
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: You hear that phone, James? Those are blacks calling, wanting
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: to be a part of our campaign.
• 21:54
  Speaker 6: No, they're not calling to want to be. They want
• 21:56
  Speaker 6: to call and tell you the same thing I'm telling you.
• 21:58
  Speaker 6: You're talking about 8 or 9. You want us out
• 22:00
  Speaker 6: in the backyard. Don't come in my house.
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: No, I.
• 22:03
  Speaker 6: And outside. And no, wait a minute. Get outside. Like,
• 22:06
  Speaker 6: you guys are like, you know, like, why don't you
• 22:08
  Speaker 6: sit outside and then we'll throw you some food outside. No,
• 22:11
  Speaker 6: you must be out of your rabbit mind.
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: James, you are misinterpreting what I'm saying.
• 22:16
  Speaker 6: I'm a professional African-American, and what you're talking about, man,
• 22:20
  Speaker 6: smacks in the face of any kind of decency.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: Sir, I'm a liberal Democrat from way back, probably before.
• 22:25
  Speaker 6: You were born. How old are you? I am 51
• 22:28
  Speaker 6: years of age.
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: Dean, I'm 51 years of age.
• 22:31
  Speaker 6: Oh, you just happen to be 51? What if I
• 22:32
  Speaker 6: said I was 32?
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: No, I'm 51.
• 22:33
  Speaker 6: I was born in 1953, August the 7th. And I
• 22:41
  Speaker 6: understand exactly what this whole thing is about. And what
• 22:44
  Speaker 6: you're talking about, man, I don't understand.
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: I'm simply saying.
• 22:48
  Speaker 6: Anybody who's listening ought to have, like, the decency to
• 22:52
  Speaker 6: call you and tell you, man, you know what you
• 22:54
  Speaker 6: ought to do? You ought to move to the south.
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: Can I ask you a question, then? That's another, that's another, okay,
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry. I was going to say African. That's another,
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: you know. No, you keep reverting.
• 23:07
  Speaker 6: You're a closet racist. Oh, sir, that is. No, sir,
• 23:10
  Speaker 6: you are perpetrating.
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: You are perpetrating a myth that has been about me
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: for a long time. People calling me... No, but the.
• 23:21
  Speaker 6: People are going to be able to see that. Because
• 23:23
  Speaker 6: you keep, like, going, oh, I don't mean Africans, I
• 23:27
  Speaker 6: mean African-Americans. What are we? Well, sure, you're... No, no, look,
• 23:32
  Speaker 6: I wrote this down. All I want is eight or nine.
• 23:34
  Speaker 6: Eight or nine. Not as many who feel like coming,
• 23:38
  Speaker 6: but only eight or nine of them. And then you
• 23:41
  Speaker 6: try to, like, mix it up with the Rainbow Coalition...
• 23:45
  Speaker 6: Do you know what Jesse Jackson was talking about? You
• 23:48
  Speaker 6: have the flattest idea.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: He is talking about a coalition of many races of people,
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: which I want to put together. And when I said
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: eight or nine.
• 23:57
  Speaker 6: But, no, you only want eight or nine of them.
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: When I said eight or nine of them, I meant
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: the colored American, not colored American, but people of color.
• 24:05
  Speaker 6: Colored American. What color are we?
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: Well, sir, I'd like to ask you something. Are we
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: chocolate brown?
• 24:09
  Speaker 6: Are we dark brown?
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: Are we mahogany brown? Are we ebony brown? Can I
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: ask you, I can tell you that I had a
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: friend who used to say, oh, well, I'm mahogany.
• 24:19
  Speaker 6: No, you're going to tell me the same thing that
• 24:20
  Speaker 6: I hear a lot of people say. Oh, I have
• 24:22
  Speaker 6: a friend who... I got one of those guys.
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: It was a girlfriend, if you want the honest truth.
• 24:28
  Speaker 6: You never, ever, ever, ever. You never, ever.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: Ever, ever. You're having a hard time dealing with that,
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: aren't you? No, no, no, no, no. You don't like the.
• 24:41
  Speaker 6: Fact that you got to be honest with yourself. I
• 24:45
  Speaker 6: think that you're faking yourself by trying to tell yourself that, hey,
• 24:49
  Speaker 6: I want eight or nine of these people at my house.
• 24:51
  Speaker 6: I'm part of the Rainbow Coalition.
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: Dean, I never said the rainbow.
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: Why does he keep saying the rainbow coalition?
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: He's saying the rainbow. Now, I want to jump in.
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: This gentleman is referring to the semantic, the way that
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: you deliver. I want eight or nine of them. Okay,
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: and when you.
• 25:08
  Speaker 6: Say that, Dean.
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: Well, we don't need as many of those because people perceive.
• 25:16
  Speaker 6: That is a beautiful term. I don't need as many
• 25:19
  Speaker 6: of those. So I guess you don't need as many Koreans.
• 25:23
  Speaker 6: How many people live in San Francisco area?
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: You only got, like, blacks and whites? There are 5
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: million people in the metropolitan area.
• 25:29
  Speaker 5: Come on, Dean.
• 25:30
  Speaker 6: Dean, help me out here.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: I'm saying that I want 8 or 9 Africans. I
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: want 8 or 9 Africans.
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: All right, all right, let's go. African-American.
• 25:39
  Speaker 6: You want 8 or 8? Look, okay.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: African-American.
• 25:42
  Speaker 6: You want 8 or 9 Afghan dogs, right? Help me
• 25:45
  Speaker 6: out here, dude.
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: I'm trying to help you out, and you will not.
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: Let me finish.
• 25:48
  Speaker 6: But you want us to stay in the yard, right?
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: No, you will not let me finish my comments, sir.
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: Well, in fairness, James, James is.
• 25:54
  Speaker 6: Because your wife does not feel comfortable around him, so
• 25:57
  Speaker 6: it's better that they stay in the yard.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: In fairness, let him respond to you, James, and then
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: you can.
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: I said, what I said to the audience, James, what
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: I'm trying to say to you is, I'm a lifelong
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: liberal Democrat, and what I want for San Alvo County,
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: I think we can all enjoy. Clean water, fresh jobs.
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: And white people. And white people.
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: Now, wait a minute. Dean, the gentleman wants to address specifics.
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: You're giving a campaign pitch here, okay?
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: No, all right. I want to reach out.
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: Come on, Dean.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: I want to reach out.
• 26:29
  Speaker 6: People are not going to go for that, man.
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: I want to reach out to Chinese.
• 26:32
  Speaker 6: When you say them, those, they, they're not going to
• 26:35
  Speaker 6: go for that.
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: See, this is what makes my wife nervous.
• 26:40
  Speaker 6: No, Dean, you need to talk to your wife and
• 26:42
  Speaker 6: tell her a baby.
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: Hold on for a minute now. Dean, is the problem
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: in your house your wife and not you?
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: No, my wife is the mother of my three children.
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: All right, but you keep saying you don't want to.
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: I understand that, but I can't have... If you come
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: to my house, I can't have your kids, too. Is
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: that what you're asking? To bring your kids?
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: Obviously.
• 27:15
  Speaker 6: I mean, you know, we're going to go past the quota.
• 27:19
  Speaker 6: The quota is eight. Eight to nine.
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: That's true.
• 27:23
  Speaker 6: If I bring my kids, you've gone way past the quota.
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: You were asking me about Chinese, and yes, we want
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: them all. No, you... And I want... Okay.
• 27:35
  Speaker 4: But, Dean, you.
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: And I want to have you... Black and Mexican, right? Right.
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: You know, what do you want?
• 27:40
  Speaker 6: A black Mexican?
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: This is the reason why I talked to that lady.
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: I want, I said I want some blacks and I
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: want some, you know, some of the, what.
• 27:47
  Speaker 6: You were mentioning, Koreans.
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: I want some blacks, Mexicans.

  Speaker 2: I want some black liberals.
• 27:51
  Speaker 6: I want some Phillies. I want some lesbians.
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: No, no, guess what she said. She says to me,
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: how about some lesbians? I said, what are you going
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: to start cramming them all down my throat? You're starting Mexicans.
• 27:59
  Speaker 6: Oh, cramming them down your throat. Dean, Dean, Dean.
• 28:02
  Speaker 4: Look at Dean, Dean.
• 28:03
  Speaker 6: Dean, come on, Dean.
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: Let me say this, James. Dean.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: Cramming what down your throat?
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: You had this lesbian call up, and she said, how
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: about some lesbians? I'm just getting used to the other ones.
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: You're getting used to... If you're a liberal Democrat, brother,
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: you need to understand that the part that a lot
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: of Democrats take pride in is a very inclusive party. And, and, and.
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: Bill, are you telling me what it is to be
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: a Democrat? I've been a Democrat a.
• 28:31
  Speaker 6: Lot longer than you. Dean, you're a Rush Limbaugh... Hey, look,
• 28:33
  Speaker 6: I listen to a lot.
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: See, there you go. See, this guy thinks that I'm
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: a conservative.
• 28:36
  Speaker 6: You are a Rush Limbaugh Republican.
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: No, sir.
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: Yes, you are, too.
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: And this is exactly what's going on.
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 28:42
  Speaker 6: It is my... It's my best hope that these people
• 28:45
  Speaker 6: do not be bamboozled, snogged, snoozled by yourself, okay?
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: Sir, I... All I'm saying is blacks are welcome... Now
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: she wants lesbians, too?
• 28:58
  Speaker 6: Only if we sit in your backyard and we do
• 29:01
  Speaker 6: not approach you.
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: Well, I would suggest that if I were a racist
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: like you're suggesting I am, I'd be using the N-word all.
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: Over the place.
• 29:08
  Speaker 6: Of course you would use the N-word.
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: Have you heard me use that?
• 29:11
  Speaker 6: No, but you're right on the verge. I mean, you know, like,
• 29:15
  Speaker 6: it's all semantic. Right now, you are teetering on the edge.
• 29:20
  Speaker 6: I mean, you might as well say, hey, I don't
• 29:21
  Speaker 6: know if there's in people in my house.
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: I didn't say that, and I want the record to
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: show that I didn't. But when this lesbian calls in
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: and starts to jam her stuff down my throat.
• 29:30
  Speaker 6: But you don't want lesbians in your house?
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: You don't want the N's in your house?
• 29:33
  Speaker 6: You don't want the J's in your house?
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: Can I ask you something? This is something I know
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: that black men can relate to. You know what I
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: mean about the gays.
• 29:42
  Speaker 6: No, hey, look.
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: You want them around?
• 29:44
  Speaker 6: Gays are fine with me.
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, sure.
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: Oh, come on, man. Here we go.
• 29:48
  Speaker 5: All right, look it.
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: James, I've got to take a break. We're not fine
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: with you. You know the African-American men, and they start
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: bringing their gay lovers along. Lesbians bring gays with them.
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 30:01
  Speaker 6: To my neighborhood.
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: All right, look it, James. I've got to take a break.
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: Thank you.
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: Thank you for your call.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: Did you hang up on a guy?
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: You haven't been able to make a point with that
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: guy in the ten minutes he was on the air.
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: All right. Dean Wheeler running for supervisor in Northern California,
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: a liberal Democrat who's reaching out in a Rainbow Coalition campaign,
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: but he's just getting used to the idea of inviting
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: blacks and Chinese into his campaign. Now the lesbians want on.
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: Phil Henry Show.
• 30:31
  Speaker 5: The Phil Henry Show is back.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: I'm just saying, don't embarrass yourself.
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: Phil, as a lifelong politician, I care about people. And
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: it's not embarrassing myself by reaching out to people.
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: Don't make cold calls to the homes of African Americans
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: asking them to show up at your barbecue. It's an
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: embarrassing thing.
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: It may be embarrassing to you. It's not embarrassing to
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: me to reach out to our constituency. And it is
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: something that... Hold on for a minute. Hi, this is
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: Dean Wheeler. I'm running for... What's up?
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: Hello, is he there?
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, he hung up. But what I'm trying to
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: do is reach out to a lot of them. We'll
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: make another call.
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: All right, let me get to some phone calls here. 1-800-449-8686. Sergio,
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: go ahead.
• 31:19
  Speaker 7: Hey, Mr.
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: Wheeler. Yes, sir.
• 31:21
  Speaker 6: Can you hear me, sir?
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: Yes, sir, I can.
• 31:24
  Speaker 7: Let me identify myself first by saying that I'm calling
• 31:27
  Speaker 7: you from Miami-Dade County, Florida.
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: Yes, sir.
• 31:30
  Speaker 7: The decision-voting capital of the country.
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: Mr. Wheeler.
• 31:37
  Speaker 7: You're going about the wrong way, my friend. I happen
• 31:39
  Speaker 7: to be a white, Hispanic professional that came to this
• 31:43
  Speaker 7: country from Cuba. And believe me, anybody that attends your
• 31:49
  Speaker 7: party that is not one of your cronies has no
• 31:55
  Speaker 7: right to be there. You are going about the wrong way.
• 31:57
  Speaker 7: You have no business running for politics if If you
• 32:01
  Speaker 7: are running with conditions and preconditions... No, sir, I'm not.
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: I'm looking for... Now, I don't know if you can vote.
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: Are you allowed to vote?
• 32:09
  Speaker 7: Oh, my God, I'm 50-some years old, Mr.
• 32:12
  Speaker 4: Wheeler.
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: I thought you said that you were just here from
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: another country. I didn't understand.
• 32:15
  Speaker 7: No, no, I came to this country in 1962. I've
• 32:18
  Speaker 7: already paid my dues. I have two kids that are
• 32:21
  Speaker 7: born and raised in this country.
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm a lifelong Republican. Now, it's funny, you said,
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: or I mean Democrat, you said that you were a fisherman, correct? No, no, no, no.
• 32:29
  Speaker 7: I said that I'm a white professional Hispanic that lives
• 32:33
  Speaker 7: in Miami-Dade County.
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: Well, the reason why I said that, Sergio, is because
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: you called me Mr. Whaler as in a whaling vessel.
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: And I thought that was cute. I thought it was interesting.
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: No, he called you Mr. Wheeler.
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: Well, okay.
• 32:44
  Speaker 4: Mr.
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: Wheeler. He called me Wheeler.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: Wheeler is what he said.
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: You know, I've been taking it.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: From lesbians tonight. I've taken it from blacks. And I'm
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: just asking you, what are you taking.
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: From lesbians and blacks? The gentleman called you Mr.
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: Wheeler.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: He didn't call you Mr.
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: Whaler.
• 32:59
  Speaker 7: That's right. And this is probably the first Hispanic that
• 33:03
  Speaker 7: calls you tonight. But let me tell you something. I'm
• 33:06
  Speaker 7: not black. I'm Hispanic. And I feel offended by the
• 33:10
  Speaker 7: way you're trying to run your campaign, even though you're
• 33:13
  Speaker 7: not in Miami-Dade County.
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: Well, no. Here's what I'm trying to do, Sergio. Blacks,
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: I've got a reputation for some reason, and I don't
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: know why, as not liking them. You're setting the conditions
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: for that. I'm not going out of my way to
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: meet them, but I want them in my campaign. And
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: now they turn around, and as soon as I say that,
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: look what happens. I say, I'd like to have more
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: blacks in my campaign. Here come the lesbians, here come
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: the gays, here come the Chinamen, and it just turns.
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: You don't see Chinamen. What is that?
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: Mr.
• 33:40
  Speaker 7: Wheeler, if you're running for public office, you need everybody's
• 33:44
  Speaker 7: vote with no conditions.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: Good point, Sergio.
• 33:48
  Speaker 7: You are going to serve a county or you're going
• 33:51
  Speaker 7: to serve a part of the state, and you should
• 33:54
  Speaker 7: have no preconditions.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: Who are you talking to?
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: I was just talking to a gentleman. Sergio, your advice
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: is very good, but as a Native American, I think
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: I know a little bit better about what's best for you.
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: You do.
• 34:08
  Speaker 7: You do. And I'm talking from a county that 51%
• 34:11
  Speaker 7: plus of the votes come from the Hispanics, From different nationalities.
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: All right, Sergio. Thank you, sir. I've got to move on.
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: I appreciate your comment. And the thing with the Chinaman,
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: Well, I hear it so much on your show. I
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: picked it up.
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: The Henry Show is back.
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: Then you'll be sorry.
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: Let me get to one more call for Dean Wheeler,
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: who's running for. You're hearing a lot of constituents saying
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: that you're going about this wrong. You're a liberal Democrat,
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: and you only want eight or nine blacks at your
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: house for the barbecue. Not in the house, though. Stay
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: in the yard.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: Well, Phil, you know, when you're married to a woman
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: like my wife.
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: All right, hold on. 1-800-449-8686. Jessica, go ahead.
• 34:49
  Speaker 5: Hi.
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: Hi.
• 34:50
  Speaker 5: I have a question.
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: What is it about your wife that makes you, like,
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: what makes her so nervous about black people?
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't know that she is, Jessica, but I
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: am on her behalf. And I'll tell you why. Well,
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you why. As a white woman, I'm sure
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: you know that, I don't know if you have, but,
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: you know, there may be a natural attraction you have
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: for them. And as a man, you want to make
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: sure that your wife is thinking pure thoughts.
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: What are you talking about, man?
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: As a white woman, I'm attracted to black men. Is
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: that what you're saying?
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: Isn't that... I don't think I'm saying anything that's a
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: big secret, am I?
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: Well, that's not necessarily true at all. I mean, not
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: that I'm not attracted to black men, but where do
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: you get that?
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: Excuse me, I'm on the radio.
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: No, I want to.
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: Who is this?
• 35:38
  Speaker 4: I have listened to this gentleman on the phone, and
• 35:41
  Speaker 4: I am very offended by the things you're saying. And
• 35:45
  Speaker 4: I would ask you to take them back, sir. Well,
• 35:49
  Speaker 4: I will not take them back.
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: And, you know, I want.
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: You have said some things are very offensive.
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm going to do?
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: Look at that.
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: Right on time. The 10-15. No, not the train track.
• 35:59
  Speaker 5: No!
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: What the hell happened?
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: Here goes my campaign.
