They have a "culteral victim mentality".

The Democrats operate by fostering a "victim mentality" in various groups. Once they get people in a group convinced that they are victims of the evil GOP establishment, members of that group will consistently toe the Democrat party line on any and all issues so as to stand up to "their oppressor".

Republicans need to break the Democrats' constituents' victim mentalities. It's tough, since Democrats are experts at playing victims like violins, but if the Republicans can't start breaking up those blocs it won't be long until the Democrats have enough groups lined up that they no longer need any contested voters to win. Once that happens, the Republic is doomed.

Part of this may involve doing some analysis. People who are jewish, are excluded from being in the "victim" category, as the left now openly demises them, however, the left still manages to get the chunk of the jewish vote, one category that falls under the "oppressor" category, because they refuse to fall into the victim category is asians. I think there is alot of room for the GOP to grab this group, since philospocially, they fit right in.

Well said. And worth repeating.
