Sorry buddy, but I'm lily white, and I assure you I'm not working against myself. Why don't you take your racist crap to a teabagger rally or perhaps a John Birch meeting. The rest of the country has evaluated your racist ideals, and found them to be disgusting.
Says the guy who belongs to a party with a lock on 96% of the black vote and 70% of the Hispanic vote but only 39% of the white vote and only 35% of the white male vote.
Why do you guys so turn off white males so that only losers white males stick with the party that is actively trying to harm them? Why is it racist for whites to find the race-neutrality of the Republicans better to their liking than the active racism of the Democrats which so appeals to blacks and Hispanics?
96% black support of Democrats = non-racism; 61% white support of Republicans = racism.
A better question for you to ask yourself is why do you only appeal to a single demographic when the country has so much diversity. It's not a matter of "If they have rights and representation, I don't"
.
That's not a better question, that's called a diversionary question meant to move the debate forward and allow you to escape dealing with the question asked of you.
Why the appeal only to whites? Whites find the anti-racist and race-neutral positions of the Republicans to be most appealing because whites are the least race-focused demographic in America. The Republicans don't advocate any white-only policies like Democrats do for minorities.
When one friend is continually punching you in the face you tend to, over time, really appreciate the friend who never punches you in the face. Understand?
The fact that Republicans favor anti-racism and race neutrality in their policies and this principally appeals to white voters doesn't say anything bad about Republicans or whites, it does though say something bad about minorities who don't find anti-racist and race-neutral policies appealing.
There is no reason for Republicans to be the party of whites, it's race-neutral and anti-racist policies should have cross-racial appeal, unlike the Democrat's policies towards Affirmative Action, Minority Small Business preferences, hiring quotas, etc but it seems that a lot of minorities like being bought off by Democrats due to their race.
We all deserve an equal shot. In the past, there were enough whites till you didn't have to care about anybody else. It's not that way any more. Change or die is what your party should be thinking about.
You fundamentally misunderstand the issues. Republicans are all for an equal opportunity society and they're ok with unequal outcomes which result from an equal opportunity society. Democrats don't want an equal opportunity society if it means that blacks and Hispanics are at the bottom - Democrats want an engineered equal outcome society and they don't seem to care how many freedoms and human rights they have to trample in order to create that equal outcome society.
You're right, in the past when America was a white nation, Republicans and Democrats split the white vote, but once Democrats decided to incorporate racism into their platform and policies in order to better win the minority vote, they signaled to whites that the Democrats are out to hurt them, and so whites react by, year after year after year, leaving the Democrats. Every election cycle sees the Democrats with a lower share of the white vote (2008 the single exception in decades) and that trend will continue on auto-pilot.
Change or die is what your party should be thinking about. As you guys continually shed white supporters how much power do you think Democrats will have when they are the party with only 5% white support? Do you really believe that whites, even in the minority, are going to permit themselves to be tax-farmed by Democrats, stripped of wealth which Democrats then dole out to their minority supporters? It's not going to happen. Democrats will become a marginalized party of the masses.
