The Democrats have been rounding up one group after another, by making promises somebody else has to keep. Until the Republican Party starts cultivating Latinos, blacks, Asians, and even Muslims, it will continue to lose elections.

In order for the Republicans to “court” the groups you listed, the next Republican nominee must:

Latinos
Grant complete amnesty and pledge 100% open boarders

Blacks
Give out free iPads and malt liquor instead of Bamaphomes (and still lose the majority)

Asians
Free egg rolls?

Muslims
Insist that Sharia law will be the law of the land.

Sounds like a great platform to me./s/

In a nation of takers things like rugged individualism, self-reliance, freedom and capitalism just aren’t going to cut it when the Republican Party also wants to be the party of virtue and upstanding morals. If the Republican Party wants to remain relevant it can only do one of two things, IMO.

1) Rubber stamp anything and everything the Marxists want and let the nation collapse under its own weight and be there to say, “I told you so.”

2) Become a much more libertarian party — completely abandon all of the social issues. With all social issues off the table, there is no “war on women” regarding abortion and birth control. There is no “war on drugs” which might appeal to young voters (look at the trend when it comes to marijuana — first medicinal use battles dragged on for years, then acceptance, now it is becoming completely legal for personal use and this topic drives a huge voter block of young people). The Republicans will be the party of reason and logic when it comes to the economy and national defense (they already are but those msgs are lost in the media which focuses, laser-like, on abortion each and every election).

The Democrats have mastered the strategy of divide and conquer. Take away their ability to divide. The appeal of capitalism, liberty and a strong national defense may yet prevail. Leave it to churches to dissuade the population from the horrors of abortion and other repugnant social ills.

That won't work even if it works. If we have to embrace principles of Fiscal/Social/Legal insanity to win, what is the point? The reckoning will be the same in the end. We will collapse. (A Foregone conclusion at this point, I think.)
