as soon as the Democratic convention in Philadelphia wraps up. Brazile has worked as a political strategist and Democratic party operative for over thirty years, going all the way back to a job on Jesse Jackson’s 1984 effort in the Democratic presidential primary.

In 1988, Brazile was working for Michael Dukakis’ presidential campaign when she made an ill-fated decision to believe an unsubstantiated rumor about George H.W. Bush having an extramarital affair.
"George Bush owes it to the American people to fess up," Brazile said. "The American people have every right to know if Barbara Bush will share that bed with him in the White House."
Brazile’s comments were widely denounced as offensive. The Dukakis campaign disavowed them a day later and Brazile resigned from the campaign.
But Brazile’s career was hardly finished, and she didn’t lose her penchant for bold remarks. More than a decade later, she was the campaign manager for Al Gore’s presidential campaign and told The Washington Post she was determined not to let "white boys" defeat her.
"[It’s not a] gender or race, it’s an attitude. A white-boy attitude is ’I must exclude, denigrate and leave behind," Brazile told the Post in 1999. "They don’t see it or think about it. It’s a culture."
Whoopi: 'I Can't Get Mad That the System Is Rigged Against the White Guy'
[NEWSBUSTERS.ORG] On Tuesday’s The View, host Whoopi Goldberg openly admitted that she could care less if the DNC rigged the system, because it was at the expense of "a white guy." After revealing emails broke last Friday showing DNC officials had conspired to defeat Bernie Sanders

, the ladies at the View became angry at Sanders supporters disrupting the Democratic Convention with their booing. Whoopi became enraged and ranted that they should be supporting

because, "[The system] has been rigged against women for years!"
The panel dismissed the ethics involved in Democratic party officials trying to rig an election. Instead, Whoopi argued, "all these wonderful young people" should be behind "the first female that actually might become President."
She added, "[T]o boo someone who has had just as difficult a time getting to where she's getting to, she wasn't born with a silver spoon!"
