The characters can't have it both ways. Be judged by character, yet subscribe to the politics of identity. This campaign is nothing more than liberal theological tripe.

The basis for liberalism is open mindedness and being able to accept diversity with no preconceived attitudes. I am a proud liberal and try to view people for who they are not what a group of people tell me what to think . Am I always successful? No! But I do make the effort.

You are defining liberalism as it was 40 years ago. Congratulations. However, modern liberalism has been co-opted by multiculturalism, which is an anti-intellectual belief that you are your ethnicity. In direct contradiction to what you proclaimed, modern liberalism would maintain that ideas have merit based upon the race, ethnicity or other immutable characteristic of the person making an observation. Universities are great examples. They attract racially, ethnically, economically diverse groups and teach them all how to think alike. It isn't diversity, it's political orthodoxy.
