He didn't refer to any of the other candidates as "brother" - he called them by their names.
Herman, I love you, brother, but let me tell you something, you don’t need to have a big analysis to figure this thing out. Go to New Hampshire, where they don’t have a sales tax, and you’re fixing to give them one.
They’re not interested in 9-9-9. What they’re interested in is flatter and fairer. At the end of the week, I’m going to be laying out a plan that clearly — I’ll bump plans with you, brother, and we’ll see who has the best idea about how you get this country working again.
And what's up with the offer to "bump plans" with him? Is that like the Bump, or a chest bump, or maybe bumping booties?
This certainly says something about Rick Perry and his comfort level around African Americans. He reminds me of the guy who suddenly starts talking in Ebonics whenever he gets around black people. At least he didn't say, "Right ON, brother" and hold his hand out for him to give him five.
