Cracks Appearing In Democratic Coalition
Powerline ^ | July 4, 2014 | John Hinderaker

The population of Mogadishu is moving to Minneapolis, through the miracle of chain immigration. I don’t know whether there is any limiting principle to this or whether all of Mogadishu will one day reside along the Mississippi, but in any event, the Somali influx is already impacting Minnesota politics.

Despite being “natural conservatives”–imagine what they must think of abortion and gay marriage!–the Somalis have so far been reliable Democratic voters. This has created one of this year’s most interesting local races, in which Phyllis Kahn, a left-wing Democrat who has represented her district in the Minnesota House of Representatives for 42 (!) years, is being challenged in a primary by one Mohamud Noor. Kahn has long enjoyed the perks of a Democratic insider, including the privilege of owning a $1 house on prime Minneapolis real estate. But so far, all of that seems to avail her little as she fights for her political life against Mr. Noor.

The race first came to widespread attention when a fight broke out between Kahn and Noor supporters at a precinct caucus. Next, in a historic first, a Democrat finally stumbled across voter fraud in Minnesota:

The Hennepin County attorney’s office is investigating whether a private mailbox center in Minneapolis’ Cedar-Riverside neighborhood has been improperly used as an address for more than 140 voters.

State records show that 419 Cedar Avenue S. has been used by some of the voters as far back as 2008. [Ed.: In other words, since Al Franken's 2008 campaign.]

It is a known fact that new immigrants tend to settle together in cities where they quickly become the majority in small enclaves.

Wait until the Central American influx of illegal aliens become Democratic voters and begins to endanger the entrenched Democrat machine in other states, especially Kalifornia.

Democrats are by definition hicks and rubes who have no idea of what goes on in the world they inhabit. Since every culture is equal why not invite a bunch of Jew-hating, inbred tribes people to the land of the free and the home of the brave?

Because the people that brought them here also hate the west.

A $1 house? Something is wrong with this picture.

Actually, I think Kalifornia has already become AZTLAN in every manner but officially renaming it.

We’re going to wait a long time for the Democratic alliance to splinter, and concern over cohesive third world immigration ain’t going to be the cause.

First, the liberal elite aren’t threatened by it. Somalis and Hondurans aren’t going to take their jobs or businesses or move into their neighborhoods or send their kids to their schools. The liberal elite could care less about the traditional American majority — very few of the liberal elite are church-going Christians and many of them have a strong affinity to immigration in themselves being immigrants, or children of immigrants, or married to immigrants, or whose children are married to immigrants or foreigners.

Second, the people who should feel threatened by it — the African Americans and white working class — are incapable of action. They have lost their own moral fiber for mass action, and their leadership is entirely subverted by the liberal elite, either in its corrupt pay, or brainwashed. Look at how uniformly they fell into line on abortion a generation ago, and on gay marriage in the past few years, which not 5% of their constituents could have originally supported. Look at how they have done nothing about trade. Look at how they obey the liberal elite on environmental questions which threaten their jobs by the hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions.

Third, the core economic engine of the Democratic Party, besides liberals who want to feel good about themselves — public employee unions, trial lawyers — love the idea of a placid, boss-dominated new voting group.

Even though I know they’ll eventually come for me, I can’t say that I wouldn’t enjoy watching them deal with their first victims...the ones that BROUGHT THEM HERE.

Wait, it gets better! Those houses are on Nicollet Island, in the Mississippi River, and they’re leased. As a result, they also pay no real estate taxes! The nice little neighborhood is occupied by leftist professors from the U of M, and politicians.

Investigation? How long does that take to figure out - ten minutes?

Mark Ritchie has had six years to look for obvious voter fraud that allowed Stuart Smalley to steal his 2008 Senate election and hasn't gotten around to it.

it’s her “white privilege” showing again...she should go to Madison or Duluth for some re-education camp.

for those who don’t know, good old Phyllis is an east coast leftists who’s been in power forever.

she’s previously pushed for allowing 1st cousins to marry(for immigrants reasons ,ironically) and pushed to lower the voting age to 16.

she’s an educated idiot.

In Lutheran Minneapolis, this a battle between a Muslim and a Jew.
