I don’t know about you, but “I always get good information” from The Brookings Institution. (sark)

Impressive! Non-PC research: I didn’t even know there was such a thing.

“Older whites” may actually be “older voters”. Without a negro or hispanic on the ticket to appeal to their basest racism those groups may go for a republican (or Trump). They’re not so easily fooled- as long as their SS checks aren’t threatened.

. . . the Democratic Party has no interest in protecting the interests of white people as a political or special interest group.

Ditto the Republican Party.

Good article

In other words, if McCain and Romney had only come across in a more conservative and assertive manner, and had appealed to more white voters, they probably would have won.

In other words, if McCain and Romney had been two completely different people, with different names, and different histories, and different politics...

Excellent article.

A 2014 study by Professor Marisa Abrajano on the coming backlash to immigration policy not only explains the Donald Trump phenomenon, but also why the liberal media are so determined to destroy him.

No one with even a hint of common sense needed a study to know that a backlash against the deliberate non-enforcement of immigration law would come the instant a politician of some stature began to tell the truth about it.

In other words, if McCain and Romney had only come across in a more conservative and assertive manner, and had appealed to more white voters, they probably would have won.

For some reason only few of the 16 GOP candidates seem to understand this very important point.

If Trump gains so much support that he wins, expect the Jebster to split and pair up with hitlery....

RINOs think they need the squishy middle to win when all they have to do is appeal to people sick of politics as usual.

[Jim Robinson]

Go, Trump. GO!!

The finding is not earth shattering news.

Yet paid Republican operatives and Big $$$ donors insisted (keep on insisting) representatives and candidates pandering to the Hispanic block AND mooooslems/other minority blocks like LGBT and such.

There is only one conclusion - they are perfectly happy with the arrangement with their Dem counterparts. Regular Americans be damned.

The media know that Trump’s appeal threatens the ability of the Democratic Party to continue to fool white voters into embracing liberal policies that destroy their own communities.

That's very accurate and well said!

Trump is doing to politics what he did to people’s perception of business.

His TV personality—which is what most people know—did more to make working in management harder than most anyone else. (Not Obama, though)

His “celebrity” made the common guy think that anyone in the managers office wanted drama and their staffs to take sides against each other. He made the front line folks think that any time the door was closed, managers were conspiring against them.

He is really doing nothing else on the campaign trail. He yells and shouts, and says “I am smarter, tougher, and better than anyone else.”

That is going to grow old as soon as someone asks how? Being direct and outspoken is fun to watch. Not really sure you want to live under that for very long.

Trump is pure gold.

I for one hope the ‘establishment’ continues to ‘not get it’.

[LongWayHome]

You would think it would have sunk in by now that the left & its RINO useful idiots have been in the business of REPLACING the American public with a “new people” who’s vote they can control for a long, long time.

Native-born whites still represent 63 percent of the population and, perhaps more importantly, some 75 percent of its voters.

The urban media always makes it sound like whites are going extinct. Actually the below graph shows there are more millions of white Americans today than ever. The Democrat Party realized in the 1970s they were headed for extinction so engineered a flood of new Democrat voters to dilute the growing number of Republican voters. On the cusp of the robotics age there is no future need for this ongoing flood of laborers.
