I couldn't disagree more strongly. INDIVIDUALS ARE THE KEY TO GOP'S FUTURE. Once the GOP heads down the demoncRAT's "group rights," and "group benefits" road, the GOP is toast. Nobody can lie, cheat, and pander to groups as well as the dishonest demoncRATs. The demoncRATs used to keep their power by giveaways to groups. They are loosing power and offices quickly. People are realizing that individual rights are the proper, and Constitutional, way to go.
When you are not in a vulnerable situation, you are free to act as an individual. Many of these people are scared and their livelyhoods are at stake. They will migrate to anything that offers support. Example, The threat of Clinton is what made Freerepublic so popular. There is a reason grassroots efforts come together. People have a cause. We either offer a compassionate solution or the Democrats will pretend to embrace them and turn them against us for years to come. And will all be wondering why the Republican party has been lost.
Agree that no one can do more harm to our country than the Demonrats and that they are relentless in their pursuit to do just that.
Repubs have to reach out and show these people that we in fact share core values; rather than allowing the 'Left' to succeed in their corrupting of another population.
A challenge we can and must meet; and one with a great payoff for our Country.
The Democrat/Left, in truth, would rather these people compete only as 'illegals' where their power as a group is only one of dependent disenfranchisement.
Which individuals???? Any politician has to target his efforts. Do you suggest that we spend just as much per individual attempting to convince gay college professors in states like Massachusetts and Vermont as in attracting middle class residents in battle ground states like Ohio and Pennsylvania? Learn basic marketing before you come up with up such dawdle. GOP is not talking about becoming panderers like the Dems, we are talking about not going out of our way to present bigots like Tancredo as the face of the Republican Party.
