Scenario:

You facing 5 years boy!!! I might can get your sentence ligtened up a bit while me and the boys get a big ole laugh at the liberals. Run for senate, but sir I don't want to. You want to go the pen for attempted rape. Do it boy do it, Toby! If you saw the interview where someone was standing off camera and he had to wait for that person to tell him what to say after every question. He looked scared. I would be scared too. Facing 5 years knowing the jury they select will be lily white, and you gonna be getting the max. He trying to stay outta jail.

So the more and more i hear about this it sounds like there is no plant, no fraud, no conspiracy. It looks like it comes down to Greene’s name being more “dulcet sounding” then his opponents name Rawl combined with his name being listed first. Which it means it really comes down to people having no idea who or why that are voting for someone. And this was during a primary, I thought only the supposedly politically knowledgeable voted. Vic Rawl is a career politician and judge, and yet in a poll before the election he held only a 4% favorable opinion among Democrats, not because they disliked him but because no one knew who he was.

Vic Rawls, who lost to Alvin Greene, had 4 percent name recognition | Washington Examiner

Here is how I think you staff political offices with candidates voted in by knowledgeable citizens and largely end partisanship the way we know it.

1). Remove the (D)’s, (R)’s, (I)’s, and every other party affiliation next to the candidates name.

2). Randomize the order a candidate’s name is presented each time a new voter steps into the ballot.

The probability of a person like Rawl loosing and person like Greene winning will be negligible. Ignorant voters will be marginalized.

I personally have never voted before and likely never will. American has 3rd lowest voter turnout of industrialized countries for lower house (congressional) voting at 54%, and this is during presidential elections, not “off years” which are 15 percentage points lower. I think this is largely because people like me realize you’re wasting your time thinking you’re taking ownership in our political system. For every knowledge voter there are thousands who are completely ignorant.

So now you want us to believe that MSNBC allowed "the boys" to stand off camera and tell him what to say?

Even better you want us to believe that Keith Olbermann who did the interview allowed that to happen.

but,
a) he is not facing attempted rape - the charge is showing porn to a college student...
b) he won, beating a 4 term incumbent, so obviously there was some support
c) do you have ANY support for your accusation?
d) I still don't see how this becomes like days past. are you saying that blacks have been put up as straw puppets and won the opposing party's nomination in the past?

Wait this one out you will see. I know that state. Lindsay Graham is the exception not the rule. U get himmed up by a local solicitor no telling what might happen. SC aint your average conservatives. Trust me that charge is related to him running.

Nice scenario, now we return to reality and 2010.

If this guy wound up with a "lily white" jury in Manning, SC (35% white) or Columbia, SC (49% white), depending on the jurisdiction for the charge, then his attorney should be prosecuted. There would be plenty of justification to declare a mistrial or an appeal would certainly win.

Do you understand how juries are selected in a criminal trial?

SC Judicial Department

You're scenario is also making the assumption that even if the jury was "lily white", a white person is going to automatically convict a black person because of racism. I don't live in SC but I do work with the some of the Navy civilians in the Charleston area (the folks I work with down there happen to be white) and none appear to be racists. I find that premise of your scenario to be offensive and racist.
