Maybe it would help if the GOP stopped accepting the racial lines that Dems have created and start speaking to people as individuals then the demographic issue would be moot. It is a cycle, the left paints everyone in a little box to make each group feel a victim of the other group so the dems can ride in and save the day.
The right has been playing along, speaking to boxes.
Maybe if we start saying you are not a slave to the labeled box that you have been categorized in but you are a free individual, we can take this off the table.
Not going to happen. Way too many (not all) blacks and Hispanics want their handouts and the Dems will always offer it to them, regardless if they actually get it or not.
It frustrates me that Reagan, Bush I and II did nothing to stop illegal immigration. Call me pessimistic about the GOP's chances in the future if demography is destiny. Did the GOP back then underestimate the numbers of illegals that would come? I know that the GOP gets support from big business and big business loves cheap labor, but I find it hard to believe that not doing anything to stop illegal immigration would benefit the GOP if demographic trends continue.
I guess they really wanted to not offend Hispanics as they tried to win their vote. How has that worked so far...? Yeah...that's what I thought.
I agree. And the labels will eventually implode upon themselves because there is a race group, a sex group, an issues group, a religious group, etc. and at some point one will find themselves in two groups which are at cross purposes and the “house divided” will kick in. People who find that their own job will be eliminated due to lawsuits, think twice and pay attention.
