Demographics is destiny

[Statistikhengst]

This just came out from the census bureau:

A More and More Metropolitan America | Random Samplings

But this one graphic pretty much says it all:

Census Bureau population estimates released today reveal a nation becoming increasingly metropolitan. The percentage of our nation’s population living in a metropolitan area ticked up from 85.3 percent in 2012 to 85.4 percent in 2013.

While this may not look like much of an increase, it’s worth noting that the population living in such areas grew by 2.3 million over the period. At the same time, the population living in micropolitan statistical areas climbed by a mere 8,000, and the number living in neither metros nor micros dropped by more than 35,000. So metro areas were responsible for virtually all of our nation’s population growth.

Metro areas, by the way, contain a core urban area of at least 50,000 people and consist of the county or counties that area is located in, plus any adjacent counties from which a relatively large number of people commute to work in the urban core. Micro areas – the kid sister of sorts to metro areas ─ have a core with at least 10,000 but less than 50,000 people.

Large metro areas ─ those with populations of 1 million or more ─ collectively grew more than twice as fast as smaller ones (those with fewer than 250,000 residents).

Many of us now live in one of the biggest of the big metros. Nearly one in seven Americans reside in either the New York, Los Angeles or Chicago areas. And almost one in three live in one of the 10 most populous areas, which include the three just mentioned, plus Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, Philadelphia, Washington, Miami, Atlanta and Boston.

What kind of ramifications does this have?

The party that has the upper-hand in urban areas is going to have better chances at winning national elections, plain and simple.

And once again, it goes to prove the point that geography is not the same as polulation density.

These seven states:

Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska and Kansas (worth 27 EV):

have a current total population of:

9,540,702

List of U.S. states and territories by population - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


That is still less than the population of Los Angeles COUNTY (9,962,789):

(Source: List of United States counties and county equivalents - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Compare those two maps. Look at them over and over again.

Geographically, those 7 states cover an ENORMOUS geographical area, but in terms of population, they have less population than that one single lone county in California.

The continuing movement toward urban areas can only mean that in the future, states with large urban areas will continue to gain electors, while the non-urban states will lose them. We saw this happen in 2000, again in 2010 and it is going to happen again in 2020.

This means that the party that convinces the urban voters is likely the party that will dominate electoral politics, plain and simple.

Demographics is destiny.

Rural America really is dying off. Wonder how much open countryside we'll have here in about 50-60 years.

Cool...more Urban squalor. Yeah!!!!

You are absolutely right that rural areas are becoming less important population wise.

BUT
Conservative states tend to be gaining population at a faster rate on average than the blue states.

So it ends up being a wash, though I am very concerned about the Hispanic belt turning Sun Belt states blue, but a candidate who goes beyond "self-deportation" could probably alleviate some of that.

Wasn't necessarily thinking purely in terms of red or blue, and yes, some "red" states are growing faster, especially in the Sunbelt, but precisely because metropolises are sprining up. And Liberal thought tends to flourish in metropolises.

The point remains: whoever has the upper hand in the urban vote is more than likely to win the GE.


Glad you stopped by, thanks for your input.

In the states that are growing the fastest most of the "new" votes coming into the state are more then not for the democrats. This is exactly how Colorado became a purple/blue state. The Denver area was one of the fastest growing areas in the west and the larger the metro area became the more blue the state became. We'll probably see the same play out in Georgia and Arizona sometime soon. The Atlanta/Phoenix areas will hold more and more sway in elections and the states will lean more and more democratic. On Forbes, they rate Phoenix as the 3rd fastest growing city and Atlanta as the 12th fastest growing. Meanwhile the rural countryside, which votes republican, withers away more each year.

That's one of the problems when most of your base is old white people....there isn't much growth anywhere.

In Massachusetts, a 'tikkun olam' gubernatorial race | The Times of Israel

In Massachusetts, a ‘tikkun olam’ gubernatorial race
In a state where Jews make up four percent of the population, eyebrows will not be raised if the next governor is Jewish

Why am I not surprised?

Four of the declared candidates are Jewish, and all are grounding their campaigns in the religious imperative to repair the world.

"Separation of church and state" only applies to "right wing 'Christian' fundamentalists" and other goyim.

Steve Grossman, the state treasurer and a past chairman of the Democratic National Committee, quotes from Isaiah in describing his ambition to close the gap between rich and poor.

immigration

ABSTRACT

This paper discusses Jewish involvement in shaping United States immigration policy. In addition to a periodic interest in fostering the immigration of co-religionists as a result of anti-Semitic movements, Jews have an interest in opposing the establishment of ethnically and culturally homogeneous societies in which they reside as minorities. Jews have been at the forefront in supporting movements aimed at altering the ethnic status quo in the United States in favor of immigration of non-European peoples. These activities have involved leadership in Congress, organizing and funding anti-restrictionist groups composed of Jews and gentiles, and originating intellectual movements opposed to evolutionary and biological perspectives in the social sciences.

There was no mention of religious groups in this OP. YOU injected that with your poorly veiled anti-semitism. It won't play here.

I personally think that anti-semites are the scum of the Earth, lower than termites. Now, go chew on a tree.

This is collectivism 101. Just look at Europe. If you live there you live in a major city or you don't live there. In turn, those that live in major cities all become liberal because they become dependent upon infrastructure etc.

The goal is for the state to claim as much land as they can grab. Then those that work find places close to work and usually live in cramped quarters like you see in Europe. It's like living on the plantation in the deep South. It's just a short commute to work and back. The other benefit is that you more than likely won't want to own a car. Instead, you will be dependent upon public transportation.

The goal is to force you to give up your big car and big house and your land and to become more dependent and live your entire life within a few square miles as you work their plantations.

they can't wait until we are all living in these and bowing down to the masters who run them

all for what?

This is, of course, bullshit.

I live in Europe and it is not even close to what you describe.

Europeans who live in big cities don't live off of infrastructure, they CONTRIBUTE to infrastructure.

You sure have a wild, whacky warped view of Europe.

Have you ever been to a European city, even once?

ONLY if the democratic aspects of choosing government are still sound, mate.

In the case of the USA I'd say it doesn't much matter except to partisans.

Are you trying to say that "religious groups" have no effect on the way people vote?

I beg to differ with you.

We have on one hand that group which the Marxist Jew crowd refer to as "right wing fundamentalist nut jobs" (and etc) who they continually blame everything (right after the Muslims that is). This group is led mostly by the Zionist cabal which controls the Democratic party.
On the other hand we have that "conservative right wing nut job" groups which includes the so called "right wing nut job Christian fundamentalists" who by the way comprise the chief base in America which has granted the Zionist cabal carte blanche to pretty much do as they please. These people are represented by the NEO-CONs who have assumed command of what was formerly known as the "Republican" party. The remnants of the old Republican party are now referred to as "paleo-conservatives".
This group is also led by the Zionist cabal.

All of which makes your OP point about "red" states and "blue" states a moot point since both the red and the blue are now under the control of the Zionist cabal who consist of a pack of wealthy and influential jackals who are JEWISH SUPREMACISTS, whom I incidentally believe are the "scum of the earth"


The Zionist cabal of Jewish Supremacists is also the group of social engineers and political activists who were and still are responsible for the changing racial demographics of the US. They are those who deserve the credit for removing all restrictions on US immigration which has led to the massive influx of brown skin from every third world nation on earth.

This IS very much the subject of the OP. Because without the continued influence of the Zionist Cabal in Washington to not permit the enforcement of what remains of immigration law , something would be done to restore US boarders to there former condition.

It is also leftist Marxist politicians like the Jew depicted above who provide the massive social largesse which is so attractive to all the illegals flocking here in droves crying "Viva la Raza" and down with the US flag.



I personally think that Jews who have to make constant use of the term "anti-semite" have no excuse for themselves.

Carry on. I suppose there are still many left who actually believe their vote actually makes a bit of difference as to what is becoming of the US or that the numerical nonsense you are going on about will either.

The mob doesn't really rule, mate. They just think they do.
As long as that holds true the ones who are really steering the ship don't have to worry about a mutiny.

And since at least half the crew is now comprised of Negros and Mexicans and more than half the whites are just as ignorant and gullible as they are, I don't see any meaningful change in the course anytime soon.
