Clyburn: Iowa, New Hampshire Don’t ‘Reflect the Electorate of the United States of America’
Breitbart ^ | 02-07-2023 | Pam Key

Posted on 02/07/2023 10:48:38 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Representative James Clyburn (D-SC) said Tuesday on MSNBC’s “José Díaz-Balart Reports” that the Democrats changed their presidential primary schedule because New Hampshire and Iowa do not “reflect the electorate of the United States of America.”

Díaz-Balart asked, “Congressman, the speech comes days after the Democratic National Committee voted to make South Carolina the first primary state in 2024. What does this mean for South Carolina? What is the message that the Democratic Party is sending?

Clyburn said, “Well, I think the message the Democratic Party is sending is very simple, that we have a very diverse country, a very diverse party, and all of that should be honored. I don’t have anything against New Hampshire or Iowa, but I don’t know that anybody in this country can legitimately argue that those two states reflect the electorate of the United States of America.”

The South Carolina Democrat electorate is majority black.

Does that somehow reflect America; this electorate is somehow representative of America overall?

They live in DC and think the entire country shares its demographics.
It doesn’t.

America’s current electorate is USPS and drop boxes. Not sure what South Carolina has to do with it.

Far as Jim Clyburn is concerned, Zimbabwe is what America is supposed to look like

So, how does this work vis-a-vis the repub NH primary?

All primaries I know have all parties. Why are the ‘Rats choosing the date for all other parties?

Can repubs split off and have a primary on another day?

And the NBA doesn’t reflect the racial demographics of the US as a whole either, so does that make the NBA illegitimate?

Any state which borders the Mississippi like Iowa has too much "diversity". And New Hampshire has plenty of "diversity" thanks to its neighbor 'asshochusetts. Diversity is our weakness. In the words of Kipling (excerpt from "The Stranger"):
The men of my own stock,
   Bitter bad they may be,
But, at least, they hear the things I hear,
  And see the things I see;
And whatever I think of them and their likes
   They think of the likes of me.

This was my father's belief
  And this is also mine:
Let the corn be all one sheaf--
  And the grapes be all one vine,
Ere our children's teeth are set on edge
  By bitter bread and wine.

Race-based primaries: Clyburn wasn’t the first to think of them.

Iowa and New Hampshire shouldn’t get to vote any longer.

From this nonsense statement, you would think the USA has a black majority. It does not. America is NOT EVEN 15 % black as of 2019.

I’ve always thought that the democrat party would one day basically be the black party. I’m still leaning that way, but it is taking longer than I thought it would.

Democrats can’t steal Iowa from Trump, so why waste so much time in Primary focusing on it?

But one fifth of that demographic (less than 3% in total) do the majority of the crime.
