“Great - just what we need, the other party also playing race and probably gender politics to get their vote.”
They do it BECAUSE IT WORKS.
That’s all Obama had - so he built his coalition. Blacks, latinos, women, single, the dependents, upscale progressives, etc.
It was pathetic, transparent, but we should have busted up the game pronto.
Yes, unfortunately you’re right! All the politicians have to do is promise the most goods to the most minorities and sometimes a bit for the others - you know the outcasts (whites).
I guess that means that politics no longer means doing what is best for America but only what is best to gain support for a constituency. Actually, it has probably been like that much longer than I knew but I was blind.
America is lost and will never regain their way. Only those giving away the most will ever win, well at least until it is too late.
