there is one of the many flaws in your logic... it's the 'red states' that are multiethnic in comparison to the lily-white 'blue states'


Are you smoking crack? Mississippi, Iowa, Utah, and all of the other Red States are all dominated by white people. Texas has a large Mexican population but I doubt that many people vote, especially when most are living in poverty.

Have you been to NJ lately? NY? California? We have a HUGE population of Chinese immigrants. I would only find a small handful of Chine people living in the midwest. The midwesy is most definitely white country. Of course this will change as the older whites pass away and the minorities start to filter into the red states.

Hehe.. The KKK votes Republican so that should tell you something.

right, and where are most of the black people in this country? most of the latinos are down south too. get outside of nyc and it is lily white. yes, there is a huge population of asian immigrants in CA, but notice i said in comaparison. that means there is room for some multiethinic blue states and some lily white red states.

and i would hardly call the midwest red states. they are most decidedly purple.

of course, if all the democrats worry about is demographics, saying that 'latinos must vote democrat and it is only an anomaly if they don't,' then democrats are going to lose a lot of elections.

also, it could be argued that democrats are racist because the laws they pass have a negative effect on black people. welfare destroyed black families by paying young black women to have babies. this created a large voting block of people who have almost no way out and believe they are beholden to democrats for what little they do have, when in reality it was the democrats policies that screwed them to begin with.

One could argue that your argument is in itself racism.

care to elaborate?

The resistance was quite real.

Are you that gullible, or did you sleep through American history class? On the Civil Rights Act, here was the voting breakdown:

Senate:

Democrats 69% for (46 for, 21 against)
Republicans 82% for (27 for, 6 against)

House of Representatives

Democrats, 61% (152 for, 96 against)
Republicans, 80% (138 for, 34 against)

Plus let's not forget the 74 day fillibuster against the bill by Democrats.

You, like many of the stupid, must think that because Sen. Goldwater (the 1960 Republican Presidential candidate) opposed a couple of provisions of the 1965 Act on federalism grounds that Republicans "resisted" it. You convieniently (or IMHO out of sheer, stupifying ignorance) don't know that Goldwater voted for Civil Rights Acts of 1957 and 1960. Both of which were signed by Republican President Dwight Eisenhower. OTOH, Democrat Lyndon Johnson had filibustered the 1957, opposed a federal anti-lynching laws, and integration of the armed forces. That just goes to show how intellectually lazy you are. If it weren't for Republican Everett Dirksen the 1965 Act would have never passed.

Here's the unvarnished, simple truth - if 60s Democrats (of both the 19th and 20th Centuries) had their way, black Americans would still be enslaved today and have no civil rights.
 
Minorites under 30 constatntly vote Democrat:

LINK


President George Bush won 8 percent of the African-American vote in the 2000 U.S. presidential election, compared to former Vice President Al Gore's 90 percent. However, the Democratic Party was not always the preferred political party for minorities.

According to CNN exit polls from the last three presidential elections, African-Americans, Latinos, women, and voters under the age of 30 "consistently support Democratic presidential candidates."



 
The Republicans are constantly attacking poor America and POOR AMERICA is comprised mostly of minorities!

The HUGE cuts in Medicare are going to affect the minorities the most and bills such as this aren't going to win too many minority supporters.
 
Minorites under 30 constatntly vote Democrat:

Which was my point from earlier. Historically voting patterns have been more evenly distributed across racial lines. We're to the point now where whites disporportionately vote Republican, and non-whites disporpotionately vote Democratic. I think those sharp divides will decrease over time - more whites will vote (D), and vice versa for minorities. Whether that's going to change the battle lines or plans for the parties is another question entirely. My only premise is that the minority vote for Democratic candidates is far from a given, and neither party seems to have an extraordinary message for minority voters right now. I'd say the current default cannot last as is, and which side minority support comes down on is very much up in the air at this point.
 
Stop holding onto your white ways gleen1. Your only "white club" of Republicans will be coming to an abrupt end in the near future. Do you know Spanish? You had better start because in NJ Spanish is becoming the preferred choice of language and will soon rival English in the coming years. My father delivers the voting machines for the state of NJ and everything is written in both Spanish and English. I doubt you would find the same in Iowa or Wisconsin.

The times are changing and there is nothing you or anyone can do to stop it. How many Mexicans or Chinese do you have living in your community Gleen1? I doubt any and if they do stroll thru your "White only" community I bet the cops are pulling those poor people over without probable cause. Come to NJ so you can geta taste of what it really means to live with people from other cultures. In NJ we have blacks, latinos, mexicans, Indians, Chinese, Japanese, etc... I doubt you could say the same for your state.

Finally, I really belive most "common" people that live in the red states are jealous of the blue states. My father who has only an 8th grade education makes more than what you could only hope to make. You can't afford to buy our $500,000 homes. Christ if I was to buy a $500,000 home in Wisconsin I'd have a mansion. In NJ $500,000 homes are common because the money we make is just great.

This is a huge distortion. The vote was split along regional lines, not party lines. The Dixiecrat Democrats of the South were the only democrats who voted against the bill.

* Southern Democrats: 1-21
* Southern Republicans: 0-1

* Northern Democrats: 46-1
* Northern Republicans: 27-5

Following the passage of the 1964 civil rights act, the dixiecrat democrats (think Strom Thurmond) defected to the Republican party, the democrats lost their huge presence in the South as the Republicans swept in. The Anti-civil rights platforms (Goldwater, Reagan, father Bush) following 1964 won the South for the Republican party, and it has remained that way till today. The Dixiecrat democrats are by today's standards and through their defections, Republican.

Why not. You guys can call all Democrats p*ssy liberals so why can't I call Republicans racist? You guys love to label us in a bad light so why can't I do the same?

Oh by the way I'm a Conserative Democrat. I don't buy into the liberal mindset that many of my fellow Democrats have bought into.

That mostly comes from Riporin.

He likes to label all Democrats as these anti-christ liberal p*ssies who would love to see the United States devolve into a feiry pit of hell.

Wow, you've just demostrated how big of a idiot and a racist you are. Calling other people racist yet you're constantly bashing the white race. Great job there.

Holding on to white ways? :roll:

Should the Chinese hold on to Chinese ways? Should the blacks hold on to black ways? Should the Indians hold on to Indian ways? Should the hispanics hold on to hispanic ways? Or only whites need apply to the standard?

Your title is not only wrong, but proves how big of a close minded hateful person you are. Are the immigrants that you seem to drool over so much not conservative? Do they not have conservative values as well? I was under the impression that Indians, Chinese, Vietnamese and other immigrants tend to be very conservative and religious. Do you even realize that whites are the majority in this country and most parts tend to be white? Or are you really implieing that we should ship the whites out and import hundreds of millions of *others* to fill in the gap? Tell us how you really feel, Mr. Diversity.

Haha, people in red states are jealous of blue staters. Seriously, thats a comment a 11 year old would make. Grow up.

You forgot to mention that compared to Wisconsin, NJ is way behind in living standard, education and poverty. Also being close to New York City helps since a lot of business comes from there. I've been to New Jersey, I've seen the streets, I've smelled the air, and it wasn't pleasant. Thank you for the offer, but I'd rather stay in my beautiful state (I don't live in Wisconsin or anywhere close to it).

Also you have proved that you're a ignorant person with no grasp of reality. It's latinos or hispanic, NOT SPANISH. Actually, I want the democrats to win and the balance of power to be restored, but to think that the upcoming wave after wave of immigrants will automatically vote democratic is poltical suicide.

What religion are the hispanics? Oh, thats right, Christian - the religion you seem to associate with white America. Well guess what? Hundreds of millions of Christians live in Africa, South America, Central America and Asia. I'm sure they are white as well.

Many experts believe that hispanics will start voting Republican increasingly due to the immigration policies of Republicans AND that hispanics are very conservative in social values, so they will identify with Republicans. Now that the Republicans are reaching out to the hispanic communities, they will bring a significant portion of the vote to the Republican party. And it was the Cuban vote that elected Bush to the office (although Gore got more votes overall). To say that democrats will automatically seize the minority vote is not only wrong, but also extremely inappropriate since you're saying the minorities can't actually think for themselves and make a choice.

Before you call someone else these names, look in the mirror.

as you have too with your racism. seeing as how you have no answer for my other post, it looks like you're both a bigoted racist and an idiot.
 
Nothing would change with a black man in the office, and nothing would change with a woman in the office. Just like nothing will change if a black man moves into your exclusive white cloister.
