MRCTV Interviews Black Republican Candidate Who Was Berated on Local Radio Program As Racial Sellout

February 9th, 2012 10:12 PM

Black Memphis-area Republican congressional candidate Charlotte Bergmann made a spash on the Internet in a viral video recently as the victim of a tense, racially-charged interview with a local radio host who berated her as a racial sellout. If this is the first you've heard of her story, however, it's probably because the liberal media have ignored it.

Bergmann is attending this week's Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Washington, D.C., and our friends at MRCTV caught up with her earlier today. You can find the full 10-minute chat embedded below the page break:

 

Oddly enough, Bergmann is challenging a white liberal Democratic incumbent, Rep. Steve Cohen, who was famously denied full-fledged membership in the Congressional Black Caucus in 2007 on account of his skin tone.
