NAACP, Are they really for the advancement of colored people?

NAACP Press Kit

Quote:The mission of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is to ensure the political, educational, social, economic equality of rights for all persons and to eliminate race-based discrimination

(bold mine)

Their welcome statement on their homepage Wrote:Founded in 1909, the NAACP is the nation's oldest and largest civil rights organization. From the ballot box to the classroom, the thousands of dedicated workers, organizers, leaders and members who make up the NAACP continue to fight for social justice for all Americans.

(bold mine)

Mia Love has called for the elimination of the US Department of Education, and the reduction of federal aide to students, two things the NAACP would, of course, have HUGE problems with.

Tim Scott opposes same-sex marriage, another thing the NAACP would have a HUGE problem with.

Why would you call for the NAACP's endorsement of two people they obviously want nothing to do with, and who, more than likely, set the NAACP's cause back?

Are you suggesting that the NAACP is not actually in the business of promoting the advancement of Colored people but rather is in the business of promoting an ideology?

You seem to be making my case.
