Millennials Have Little Use For The Gop

[EconChick]

The positive is that demographic trends are bidirectional. As Democrats become ever more the Party of Color their policies will become even more repulisve to whites

Romney did somewhat better not much in the white vote. Dems aren't scared of white or color. We in the GOP need to learn that.

Let's get something straight. You're not in the GOP. That thread where you advocated class warfare and bashed entrepreneurs sealed the coffin for me - you're a Socialist and don't even know it.

Back to topic, with people like you, Jakey, no wonder our youth are confused.

What's stupid about this is that the youth hardly shows up to vote historically... Historically the youth has always leaned Democrat when asked but it's as people get older they lean Republican, and actually show up to vote. Now there has been a trend leaving both parties, Dems are loosing more support than Republicans (faster pace).

So the point Jake is making is that after voting for Obama twice he now has to prove he is a "mainstream" Republican by constantly proving he is a progressive liberal... When people that outright claim Obama is a great if not the greatest President the US has ever had are the only people agreeing with you consistently on the boards, while everyone critical of Obama to any extent, and all the way to the far right Obama haters, thinks you're a far left liberal... You're prolly a far left liberal.

Jake, no one cares that you call yourself "mainstream." No one cares that anytime they disagree with you that you call them "extreme, reactionary far right nutters..." You sound stupid saying it. But don't let that stop you!

LOL. Agree.

Also agree that Jakey incapable of handling disagreement without calling people who disagree far right nutters.

We should do a chart on that. Better yet let's do a Venn Diagram.

The two circles would almost completely overlap.

They would switch sides... and become ovals.

LOL

I dont see the hispanics staying Democrats for very long once they get what they want. Hispanics will either form their own party of shift into the GOP once all the loons have died off or go away.​

Most of them obviously identify the GOP with the far right's racism, sexism, homophobia, and religious perversions, based on the image below.

They all can vote for the first time in 2016, the year that may be historic if HRC runs and wins.

I expect very little from the most coddled self centered narcissistic bunch of greedy whiners ever. Would you?

 

[thereisnospoon]

Jake, you are a liberal. The GOP has no use for you. Bye!

You are a reactionary, the only reason I am seem liberal though I am mainstream.

Stay with the ineffective libertarians, because there is no place for you in the new GOP.

Get the **** out of here.
You post lib.
You side with libs on every issue.
Mainstream, my ass.
You are as mainstream as Rachel Madcow.

The pressures of the last two years, which the far right can never handle with any grace, allowed their hate to come to the surface and be lanced in the primaries this year. Even the mainstream no longer wants to listen to them. Fox has turned on the far right finally.

Even the American children in the most conservative Muslim families are turning away from the extremism of their home faith. Such is not so much the case in England though.

What happened to your thread?.....

The millennials simply won't accept the more conservative GOP actions on race, sex, sexual orientation, etc.

Sure they will. It's always easy to take a principled stand when you have no skin in the game. Single Millennials can argue that the Boy Scouts should allow single homosexuals to take young boys camping. Later, when they become parents to young boys they change their mind.

I recall putting the issue to a group of liberal parents in my social circle back when I was still single - "If you feel so strongly about this issue, why don't you guys go and find some single homosexuals and form your own scouting organization and let these men take your young sons camping and then take this to the press." They didn't take my advice and they kept THEIR OWN sons in Scouts. They were fine with using other kids as props for their moral crusading but not their own kids. Typical liberals.

They are not liberals, they are mainstream and will continue to be so.

You are reactionary far right and out of touch.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Simply, I see more clearly than TK, EC, and Rik. I have been on school boards for more than twenty years. I served as a school board president. I sit on the advisory councils here.

I talk almost daily with administration, faculty, and staff, while observing and listening to students regularly, including my grandchildren, six of them who are in jr and sr high schools.

You folks are completely out of touch.

 

[JakeStarkey]

It has been fun to watch the far right and whatever TK embraces today completely implode.

The circle chart is clear. The great majority of the millennials, all of whom can vote as an entire group in 2016 for the first time, have turned their collective back on the far right.

You are a far right wack, nothing more. Step along.

Most will return to it or form a party of similar values. Minus the loons or letting the loons hijack their party

How differently did white youth vote from their minority peer group?

White youths voted more like white older people than they did with minority youth. Looking at Democratic voting, a 7 percentage point delta between white youths and white 45-59 compared to a 30 percentage point delta between white youth and Hispanic youth and a 47 point delta with blacks.

Who is going to argue that youth unites an age-group?

Of all the age groups, white youth had the largest shift from Democrats to Republicans. Nearly 1 in 5 white youth voters in '08 abandoned the Democrats and shifted their vote to Republicans. Losing 20% of a demographic over 4 years is brutal.

Whoops, there goes Jake's thread once and for all.

No, you are about as mainstream as a creek. You are a liar and a closet liberal. Keep on steppin pal. After you quit trippin.

Hate to break it to you, but Democrats had loons in their party long before the Tea Party came into existence.

That's an inaccurate opinion. They are afraid the loons have hijacked the GOP.
