More important Journalism going about discovering the obvious. I know some white guys who are all going to vote for Hillary, but they all have gray pony tails and law degrees.
Voter ID. Paper ballots.
They still have the white jewish vote though. Amazing that they do...the rats will sell the jews and Israel out in a second if they ever get the WH back.
Unfortunately, there’s no place for conservative white males in the Republican party, either...
If the NASCAR dads are so dead, why did the rats have to field the blue dogs to win ‘06?
1) The presidential election is by electoral votes, not the popular vote. Minorities are unevenly spread out in this country, so while winning an overwhelming number of black votes will cover a shortfall of white male votes in Maryland, for example, there are too few black and other minorities in states like West Virginia and Iowa to win without at least gaining a competitive number of white male votes.
2) White men are not isolated. When the Democrats insult white men, it is reasonable to believe that they drive away their wives as well. Statistics show that married white women vote Republican.
*Bump* for later
I’m sure the Democrat tushy lickers over at the AFL-CIO will put a positive spin on this to the rank and file.
>>most notably perpetuating the perception of Democrats as a party that is uncomfortable in its skin.<<
In fact, that’s all the Democrats notice is skin. The Democrats and their leftist liberal allies have done a great job dividing people into what they call “interest groups” based on the amount of skin pigment or ethnicnity. The notion that the pale penis people - one-third of the electorate - are somehow some kind of coherant tribal entity based solely on their inability to get a decent tan after a week on the beach is both ludicrous and stupid. The ancestors of the pale penis people came to the United States from a variety of religious, ethnic, and national backgrounds, all of which have unique cultures, none of which has a long tradition of solidarity based on lack of skin pigment. In addition, the idea that the pale penis people have some sort of tribal allegience can easily be demonstrated by their intermarriage with a wide variety of non-penis people from other cultures, races, ethnicities, and backgrounds.
The thinking in this article deserves to be served up with the banner, “Race-obsessed leftists think skin pigment determines individual choices, political leanings, and personality.” The last time I looked, folks who think skin pigment determines those things belonged to the Klan, the National Socialist party, the Nation of Islam... and, of course, academics and elitists currently living in the United States.
Where’s the barf alert!?
Bubba don’t like RINOs. Bubba stopped paying ad money to the RNC. But Bubba don’t ever, ever vote for liberal, gun-grabbing, socialist Dems. End of story.
Look for them in the girlie men section. That’s the only model.
Well they have already abandoned the search to run a White male for the nomination.
Straight white males need not apply to the RAT party.
The author accurately describes the evolution of party strategies. Just as the Democrats have given up on trying to con votes out of hard-working, taxpaying, traditional American families, the Republicans would do best to give up on trying to win the votes of athiests, condom-throwers, abortion enthusiasts, man-hating dykes, gold-chained union thugs, welfare grandmothers and all the rest of the losers, goofballs, and parasites that make up the Democrat base.
Just let the rats keep them.
One thing that surprises me is that even 1 in 100 whites vote democrat. Their core platform is basically a rant against ango-saxon civilization, and wanting to take away everything white men have.
Back maybe 40 years ago the Dems were strong union supporters and I can see the temptation for working class white men to support them. Nowadays the dems are supporting both crazed trade agreements, and mass low skill migration to flood the labor market.
The value of the black vote to Democrats in presidential races is questionable. I don’t have stats, but half or more of black Americans still live in southern states which the Dems have no hope of carrying for president. That vote does send several Democratic Congressmen to Washington, but no presidential electors.
The black vote might help a Democrat presidential candidate in some close swing states, and solid blue states, but their vote is so predictable that it will seldom cause any surprises.
As this movement as gathered force, it has become explicitly contemptuous of traditional American values and common American identity, more openly at war with white males as alleged privileged patriarchs. Years ago, some of us argued that if hard multiculturalism went far enough, the official target group, white males, would emerge as a voting bloc.
In this same article Leo wrote of social concerns he thought had motived voters:
a trashy and corrupting popular culture, lessons on anal sex for fifth graders, in-your-face gay activists who cover churches with graffiti, snide anti-American folly at the Smithsonian, the moral vacuum inhabited by Surgeon General Joycelyn Elders, the new unwillingness to make any distinction between legal and illegal immigration, the perverse guerrilla war against the notion that children deserve to grow up with a father in the house.
Republicans as well as the uber-Dems of Slate should take heed of this.
The main mistake I see with this analysis is that it ignores the state-by-state nature of Presidential elections. One simply can’t talk about the ‘Rat advantage among blacks offsetting the GOP advantage among white males without first setting aside those states where one party has a lock. For example black votes for the Democrat in Mississippi Alabama, and Georgia have no effect on the results in Wisconsin, Ohio and Iowa. If you look at the States where the ‘Rat and the Republican candidates have been within 5% of each other in each of the last three or four elections, I think you will see that these States have fewer blacks (and therefore more white males) than the national average.
