"blacks comprise about 12% of the population. Ninety-five percent of that number could never elect any president."

Au Contraire, Mon Ami. When only 35% of the population votes in an election, and the blacks vote IN NUMBERS, you have a near 50/50 split of D's and R's, anyway, and they (blacks and illegals, combined) to tilt the Election one way....towards freebies.

If all eligible voters were voting, then your point would be accurate; but since 2 out of 3 eligible voters stay home, and a LOT of Conservatives have no one to vote for, it results in the lackluster/weakest being elected (let alone the ineligible).

WOW! I am impressed. That is so sophisticated; so continental. However, I would like to explore something you said. It is my understanding that there was a much higher turnout of voters, especially conservative, Tea Party types, than there ever has been.

I know that was the case where I live. We swept 14 out of 14 races. We booted every Democratic incumbent to the curb and defeated every Democratic candidate. So there may have been more than 35% of the people who voted nationally.

Secondly, you sound as though great numbers of illegal aliens voted. I would like to see/hear about, any documentation you have confirming that assertion. I am fully aware of the slimy machinations of ACORN and the unions. I also regret the unfortunate tendency of my people to rely so heavily on handouts from the government. But they are not alone. Did you ever watch the Caucasian trailer park citizens on Cops?

They do not understand that welfare has never been anything except a trap intended to keep blacks and others in poverty and voting for Democrats. They don’t understand because public education fails, deliberately, to educate. All of America’s children who go through that system are dumbed down and subjected to revisionist history.

This has resulted in a work force that is largely incompetent. Try to do business with clerks, secretaries, fast food workers, etc. It is enough to make you want to cry.

I apologize. I have come off subject, but I do get wound up when I consider what has been done to our country. You of course may be right. I am just not ready to accept your argument. No hard feelings whatsoever. We can still disagree in America. Of course that might change if Obama gets a second term. (Smile)
