Turns out, voters don't mind 'two old white guys' (Tulsi still running)

And then there were two - unless you count Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii), who has about the same chance of winning the Democratic Party’s nomination for president as does Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.).

The last (serious) woman candidate in the race - Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) - has dropped out. The only openly gay man in the race dropped out a few days earlier. All the candidates of color are gone - again, unless you count Tulsi. And, now, all that’s left are two white men, both closer to 80 than 70.

Right from the jump, Democrats bragged about their diversity, about how - unlike the Republicans - their candidates were a reflection of the “real America.”

But a funny thing happened on the way to this summer’s convention in Milwaukee. The voters had their say. And they weren’t as fixated on skin color and gender and sexual orientation and age as were the coastal elites of the party, or their pals in the liberal media.

It’s only a matter of time before we hear howls from the left about how, despite all their efforts, Democrats wound up with - as the dismissive saying goes - “two old white guys.”

Which is true. If by "the real America" you mean the dying Republic dissolving into a shopping mall for the world, inhabited by zombies absorbing media and consuming product.
