Kincaid is exactly right. Ann Coulter says in her new book that the way for Republicans to win the white House is to appeal to white conservative, Christian voters and don't worry about blacks and hispanics. She said it worked for Reagan. He still won 49 out of 50 states. He did it by not being a pandering phony. Republicans will never get the hispanic vote and black vote because so far they're not the social welfare giveaway party. So why try? Concentrate on getting conservatives back to the polls. It's a winning formula.

It is now starting. Proof, look how much interest Donald Trump is getting right now.

Losing to Hillary starts by forming a circular firing squad around Trump.

What’s with conservatives giving Shrillary the nomination already? The way it looks now, Bernie’s going for the gold, yet the chattering classes on both sides hate to admit it. Let’s not be blindsided.

The Republicans plan on losing by putting up a candidate who isn’t significantly to the right of Hillary. A RINO.

Agree. Coulter is correct on this issue.

The GOP is wasting their time trying to appeal to Latinos.

Candidate: focus on, what is still the majority in this country, white Anglo Americans, and you’ll win.

The vast majority of illegal aliens come from countries that are socialist.
The Republicans who believe they would vote conservative are delusional.
There is good evidence that there is no way that they would get more than 30% of the vote of newly legalized illegal aliens.

Legalizing illegal aliens is a losing proposition for the GOP. The only reason they support it is that they have been paid off.

I wonder. The GOP cannot outpander the Democrats. But suppose some GOP candidate came out with a real jobs plan. A plan that said: We'll get you - and more importantly - your children back to work, with solid middle-class factory jobs.

That certainly wouldn't win over Sharpton or any of the black "leadership". But the average black or Hispanic just might listen.

The purpose of the GOP today is not to represent conservatives, it is to block them from power.

Their main goal is not winning, it is to prevent us from electing anyone who would stop The Cheap Labor Express.

The RNC intends to deliver the amnesty candidate they have been paid for.

¡Yeb! is supposed to be that designated loser.

1980 is not 2015.

Look at the demographics. Look at the culture. Regan would not be electable today.

Agreed. There are millions of blue collar white Democrats in the heartland who are not at all enamoured with the extreme left tilt of their party when it comes to same sex marriage and illegal immigration. A Reaganesque candidate can compete in places like Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Michigan with a strong America first message with emphasis on the economy, defense of the country and don’t forget values. I would have commercials linking the Democratic Party with the body part merchants of Planned Parenthood on air constantly. Also, border security must be emphasized. Go over the heads of the media and the GOPe the way Reagan did by appealing directly to the American people. The candidate who does that can win in a cakewalk IMO. Whatever black and Hispanic votes are received will just be gravy if millions of blue collar white voters vote for the GOP candidate which will probably come down to Trump, Cruz, or Walker.

I have not read Ann Coulter’s book, but agree with her theory on principle, ie to appeal to white conservatives. However, does she account for demographic changes since Reagan? If she does, does she illustrate that the number of white conservatives will still overcome the changed demographics? I assume the answer is simply a matter of voter turnout.

I tend to agree. The problem is ... “they” are going to be the majority and right soon. Not at ALL suggesting the GOP “appeal” to them (a fools errand), just saying that this is clearly a “no win” scenario. Conservatives are old and a dying breed.

And yeah, they don’t particularly like Hillary, but they will vote for Hildabeast in droves.

How the Republicans Plan to Lose to Hillary"

Lose by being for tax cuts for the rich, free trade to export jobs, for war in the mideast. Now the best way for them to win is to point out the absolute waste that Hillary is, unless, they run another waste like they have in the past.

That sounds like Mr. Cruz. I love it when I hear him say things like in state tuition is not fair to citizens and legal immigrants, and he is against ethanol.
The more entering the race the less appealing most are. Perry’s food fight with Trump has turned me completely against Perry. I am down to Cruz and two maybes.
