Farouk Shami attacks Bill White:

Hair products tycoon Farouk Shami said Tuesday that Bill White, his Democratic rival in the race for governor, took jobs from poor Houston residents and gave them to friends.

...

Shami was in Dallas to discuss his plan to create jobs in the state's low-income areas. They [sic] plan involves developing solar panel plants in blighted areas. Those plants would produce jobs for poor people and cut their energy costs.

"The American dream is still alive," Shami said at a breakfast in South Dallas. "My opinion is to start with the poorest people in the state. Unfortunately, we have a lot of those people."

Shami continued to take aim at White, blasting the mayor for not fixing potholes in poor neighborhoods.

"The holes are in Mexican-American and African-American subdivisions," he said. "The mayor has deaf ears to minorities. He took jobs from minorities and gave them to special interest."

Those are certainly some allegations that will grab Dem primary voters' attention.\

By happenstance, I happened to see that Shami addressed the Dallas Gay LULAC meeting yestereday. That's a...very specific group.
