Immigration, population size and demographics, preferential treatment based on race and sex and sexual orientation etc are not just distractions but of monumental and fundamental importance. Essentially it's about how the pie of power, money and freedom is divided among the populace that's increasing faster than the resources. For one example immigrants and non-whites vote about 80% democrat and will push the political system to the left: percent voted for Obama in 2012samspade said:QFT.
I mean look at all the bickering on these boards over wedge issues like race relations and gay marriage. You guys think the fat cats care? Whatever keeps the money flowing for the top and keeps the status quo going. As long as the plebes are distracted and arguing, doesn't matter who's in charge.
African-American 93, Hispanic 71, Asian 73, Females 55%. As you can see it wasn't men or whites who put Obama over the top, all though they helped especially white women, but non-whites are very liberal groups, more liberal than even women. Democrats dislike Asians for proving that a minority group can do better than whites, are Asian that clueless or do they think they're just voting against whites? http://www.ropercenter.uconn.edu/polls/us-elections/how-groups-voted/how-groups-voted-2012/
Can't argue here.But if we're talking who's going to win the nominations - right now it looks like Hillary for the Dems. That could change; there could be a Jimmy Carter type who comes out of nowhere. But I doubt it. For the GOP, I think Scott Walker, if he runs, is the best shot: Young, fought the unions, swing state, governor. He or Marco Rubio give them a good shot to win it. Jeb Bush, not so much. I think Rand Paul speaks a lot of truths but that will keep him from getting past the primaries.
This country deserves whatever it gets, that's for sure.
