Last night, conservative media magnate and real-life cartoon villain Rupert Murdoch tweeted this shit in support of Republican presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson:
![screen cap of tweet authored by Murdoch reading: 'Ben and Candy Carson terrific. What about a real black President who can properly address the racial divide? And much else.'](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v642/shakespeares_sister/apix/tweet49.jpg)
So, President Obama has been wayyyy too black for conservatives for seven years and now he's not black enough for Rupert Murdoch? Cool.
I think it's super neat when white people who don't believe race is a cultural construct start ranking blackness, without a trace of irony.
Anyway.
It's hard to know what to buy for the billionaire who has everything, but let's all chip in and buy Rupert Murdoch a big bag of STFU. Since he clearly doesn't have one.
