It uses as its foundation a recent study indicating that because of the growth of ethnic groups, the Democratic Party is headed towards an electoral hegemony.

The Rats have been saying this is going to happen Real Soon Now for, oh, the last three decades or so. Each time, they conveniently leave out the fact that the vast majority of first-generation offspring of immigants consider themselves to be as much of an American as anyone whose family has already been here for 300 years (which, of course, they are). Only minority groups that have been brainwashed into knee-jerk support of the Rats (like most blacks, sadly) will blindly support liberalism just because of the color of their skin.

Also note that black support for Bush has skyrocketed throughout the course of his administration. These groups will invariably come around to reality as long as someone is able to get the facts out to them. And the GOP has been increasingly good at doing so. It'll be a long time before we ever win over the inner-city voters held hostage by Rat federal poverty maintenance schemes, but everyone else is up for grabs. We just have to keep grabbing.

Well, in terms of the Black Community, I would not use the term "skyrocketed". Most blacks distrust George W. Bush. Trust me. I know.

However, Bush tends to wear well on people. I would not be surprised if he got as much as sixteen to twenty percent of the black vote in the next election. He is simply not the Klansman that Julian Bond and Kweise Mfume painted him to be. That will change minds all over the country. His aggressive courtship of the black church will pay dividends, as well.

The big surprise is among Hispanics. Republicans tend to be improving, big time, among that voting bloc. Bush is maintaining support amongst them because he shows that he speaks to issues that Hispanics value without pandering to them. He comes across as honest, which is all they asked for anyway.

Be Seeing You,

Chris
