In this edition of our CONVERSATIONS W/ SMART PEOPLE series we bring on GOP political consultants JOSHUA DELANO & JANELLE JONES to discuss the POLITICS OF RACE. JOSHUA DELANO visits in the 1st hour (10am) and he serves as a political consultant for African-American, and TEA PARTY FORWARD Chairman, NIGER INNIS. In the 2nd hour (11am), JANELLE JONES, an African-American consultant herself, serves as a political consultant for several local ATLANTA and Georgia GOP candidates. They may assist politicians across the so-called RACIAL DIVIDE, but they are not politicians themselves; tune-in to hear their unique perspectives as to why they support the candidates they do and their thoughts on the upcoming Presidential election. MENTAL DIALOGUE asking the questions America's afraid to ask. "ALL I ASK IS THAT YOU THINK"
