OK......

So you accept that no minorities will vote for the GOP...not ever, so there is no point in trying to attract them.

So we concede that vote to the Dem's. How then do you win a national election where in 2000 and 2004 the margins were so tight you could not afford to lose anything and expect to win anything. A 3% loss would shift the outcomes. If it were not for the electoral college we would have lost in one instance in 2000. That same event cannot happen today because the Dem's are systematically neutering the electoral college. A plurality vote is now needed for most scenarios.

How then do you cut any voter segment loose in todays reality and win?

The answer is that you can't.

Sorry No! Curbing immigration and denying illegals the kneejerk vote for the Marxist free ride ticket would , Would have worked, but if you want compromise you get a pig in a dress.YOU WOULD HAVE TO BE HYPER DILLUSIONAL TO ASSERT THAT 20 MILLION MOSTLY ILLITERATE LAWBREAKERS would ever vote for Republicans under a platform of “look after yourself”.The illegals are however well versed on how on to bilk the system.They are going to have an epiphany? Someone here should.
