What About The White Vote?

Are we really so beaten down by the left that we are going to accept their blatant racist attacks? Barack Obama received near 100% of the black vote to win the last election. Yet we actually are being made to feel guilty because we got "too many" white voters.

And, the DNC chair is bragging that they have a House caucus dominated by minorities and women. Meanwhile, Susan Rice lied to the whole country, and for mentioning this we are being called racists.

They WON the election and they still are attacking us as racists. Even though they got lots of white votes. This is really getting out of hand.

I've grown up with everyone considering it impossible to appeal to white voters. Well for goodness sakes, at this point white voters and republicans are the only ones not acting like fanatical racists.

I can't believe the racist onslaught being launched by the democrats is popular among white voters. This race stuff is deadly, it is going to hurt America in a terrible way.

We are being told that only "minority" candidates and voters are valid now. That through illegal immigration, we must turn whites into a minority.

This is outrageous. The democrats are racists, in fact they always were. You cannot deal with leftism and racism by hemming and hawing and apologizing, the people attacking us are merciless.

Conservatives better launch a counterattack on this and soon. They'd better identify the democrats as the racists in the room, because they are. If we don't we are about to be eaten alive.

There is nothing wrong with whites and white voters. Whites have been strongly conditioned NOT to be racist in today's America. We'd better damn well insist that all segments of society follow the same rule or we are going to end up in a country beset by real racial unrest on all sides.

We're witnessing a leftist revolution right now, and it is riding on a wave of racial divisiveness. There is nothing wrong with whites and someone better start defending them and denouncing racism on the left, and quick.

It is not necessarily racists to report such, which i do, as it testifies to a cultural correlation, but there is an animosity in the Left to what the conservative white culture overall represents, that of traditional reverence for moral authority, capitalism and earning rewards and penalizing indolence, etc. , and charity being mercy, not a demand as a right.

As for stats,

The 2012 electorate contained the smallest share of white voters and the largest share of nonwhite voters in American history. White voters constituted 72 percent of the electorate, down from 74 percent in 2008, 77 percent in 2004, and 81 percent in 2000. African-Americans made up the next largest share at 13 percent, the same as 2008, and up from 11 percent in 2004 and 10 percent in 2000.

Hispanics constituted 10 percent of the electorate in 2012, compared to 9 percent in 2008, 8 percent in 2004, and 7 percent in 2000. Asian voters made up 3 percent of the 2012 electorate, an increase from 2 percent each in 2008, 2004, and 2000.

Mitt Romney won a larger share of the white vote than either John McCain or George W. Bush. Romney defeated Obama by 59 to 39 percent among whites, compared to McCain winning whites by 55 to 43 percent over Obama in 2008, while Bush won whites by 58 to 41 percent over John Kerry in 2004 and by 54 to 42 percent over Al Gore in 2000.

Mitt Romney won white voters in almost all demographic groups, usually by substantial margins. Romney’s campaign was extremely successful at appealing to white voters across the board, and won almost all white groups except Jewish voters. In every group listed below, Romney’s percentage in 2012 surpassed McCain’s percentage in 2008.

Romney lost among African-Americans by roughly the same margin as John McCain and by a greater margin than George W. Bush.

Romney lost Asians by the greatest margin in recent history, and by a greater margin than he lost Hispanics. Obama won among Asians in 2012 by 73 to 26 percent, compared to 62 to 35 percent over McCain in 2008. - http://www.resurgentrepublic.com/research/2012-the-year-changing-demographics-caught-up-with-republicans

Nationally, non-white voters constituted 28% of the electorate, up from 26% in the 2008 election, and President Obama again won 80% of these voters, according to the exit polls. The President won Latino voters by 44% points over Romney, an 8 point increase from 2008, while 93% of Black voters supported the president, down a notch from the 95% he had in 2008, (but still an 87 point differential). Said simply, 89% of Romney’s supporters were white (compared to 56% for Obama).

Finally, the role of nerds, geeks and their use of large datasets of voters contributed to the Obama victory over Romney. This is somewhat surprising considering Romney’s past reputation during his reign at Bain Capital as a “data guy.” In fact, as we are now learning, the Obama campaign hired a cadre of sophisticated and highly skilled data geeks to build the largest and most integrated voter database in history, with an incredible amount of micro-level personal data on each individual potential voter. As TIME Magazine’s Michael Scherer points out, it was this team of “data crunchers” who figured out the best way to raise small amounts of money from millions of donors, and who kept information up-to-date on who was registered, who was most likely to vote, and what the field operation needed to do to get as many of these voters to the polls. - http://news.columbia.edu/oncampus/2964

No people should ever apologize for trying to preserve their heritage. The idea that there could be anything wrong with the heirs to the White Settlers, who truly built modern America from the ground up, trying to preserve their legal, cultural & ethnic heritage is absurd. What those who rant against the idea tell us, is not that preservation is wrong; rather that the ranters are driven by hate--hate against the achievement of others.

The Obama campaign efforts to get out the vote, were directed largely at people, who regardless of race, had very little knowledge of the Constitutional functions, actually entrusted to the Federal Government; the focus, especially in the contrived early and extended voting, was on being able to make the Acorn type "Community Organjzers" more effective, than they would have been had they been forced to herd their pawns to the polls, all in a single day. (This not only increased the proportion of the vote by those basically ignorant of what actually was involved; it facilitated multiple voting by some, in different locations.

What the devise certainly was not, however, was a means to have people who understood the proper functions of Government, decide the result.

It is unconscionable to celebrate a result so obtained. It is insanity to allow people to herd those susceptible to directed block voting, to the polls in this manner. We need to draw a line. This must not be repeated.

Time for a White Riot.

Much more effective would be a quiet resolve, expressed by a candidate or spokesman with the best credentials, and great grass roots support, that we will not support anyone who will not honor the Founding Fathers' stated intention in the Preamble to the Constitution, to secure the Blessings of Liberty to their posterity.

Unlike the nonsense being spouted today, a nation, community, family, species, race or what have you, is a multi-generational concept. That applies to everyone, and there is no reason under the heavens for rooted Americans to quietly surrender their homeland.

This does not need to imply hostility to any other people on earth. We can be friends to all. But our lands, resources, etc. are finite. It is not cruelty to demand our borders be secure, it is only provident behavior. It is not mean-spirited to defend the integrity of the fruits of our own labor. If we want to redistribute those fruits in charity, that must be a personal decision; not a case of plundering the provident, industrious & frugal for the political advantage of demagogues, seeking to be all things to all men.

Enough, long since, became far more than enough.

I'm the same way too, I'm 46. I'm of German and Swedish heritage on Mom's side and Serbian (my last name is of Serbian roots from Kosovo according to some research I did), Russian and Russian Jew. The last suffered under the pogroms in Russia.

The last 4 years taught me a lot about minority voting along with White guilt and women of all stripes who want government to be big daddy. First off, like you, if they believe in America and what we stand for and are patriots, I have no problems with race, creed, gender or anything. Also add in that when we work, we keep the stuff we earn a well. Until I know if they are loyal to those thigns we hold dear, I hold all under suspicion until I find out otherwise.

I've been called racist too and I don't care anymore. Like you said, it is up to each minority community to stop being like "crabs in a bucket" (the non successful crabs pull in the one(s) that get out of the bucket) and wise up. It has to come from within.

The only "reaching out" I will do and support is if they want to join us as a free-thinking conservative, patriot and producer, if not, forget it.

That said, one of my friends told me that with the election of Obama, we've set back race relations back to 1970 if not further.

To anyone out there, I'm not picking on you if you believe in America, just the ones that act like the Borg before the Borg and vote in a bloc that way.
