WASHINGTON, DC - JULY 02: Jeff Miller (R), campaign manager for former Texas Governor Rick Perry's 2016 presidential bid, listens to Perry address the National Press Club Luncheon July 2, 2015 in Washington, DC. Perry began his speech about how African-Americans should support him and the GOP by recounting the racially-motivated 1916 lynching of Jesse Washington in Waco, Texas, and how far Texas and the nation had come since that time.
