(After Dr. Carson, this panel is a bit of a letdown.)

Did you watch Arthur Brooks speech? A majority of Americans don’t believe Republicans care about them and it needs to change. He's right on and has outlined victory. It's obvious and brilliant.

The problem with this political navel gazing is that the panels are focusing on the failure to get the message/ideas out to the electorate. They incorrectly believe that the reason the conservatives are losing is that they are not doing a good job in getting out our message. Or that we need more tokenism to show that we are tolerant.

The reality is that changing demographics are reshaping the electorate. As long as we continue to bring in 1.2 million legal immigrants a year, most of whom are uneducated and 87% minorities as defined by the USG, and an open border with hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens entering this country annually, we will be unable to win elections. In 1970 one in 21 was foreign born, today it is one in 8 the highest it has been in 90 years and within a decade it will be one in 7 the highest in our history. And by 2050 one in five will be foreign born.

Limited government and low taxes have no appeal to those who receive government checks and services or those who pay no taxes. The culture of dependency is growing, which increases the Dem constituency.
