in 2012, with strong minority turnout, whites made up 74 percent of all voter
Meet the future:
While racial minorities now account for 95 percent of U.S. population growth and represent 38 percent of the population,
The Republican establishment campaigns top-down, just as it governs, on behalf of of a limited fatcat donor base. It campaigns by spending literally hundreds of millions late in the election season to try to eke a narrow victory out of the 74% whites without antagonizing, that is energizing, Blacks, Latinos and single women.
The Democrat party is feverishly attempting to move 38% of the population into the voting booths and it will make them citizens if that is necessary and it will enable them to vote as noncitizens if that is necessary.
So we have different electioneering strategies, Republicans are top-down television oriented appealing to a declining demographic while the Democrats are creating their own demographic bottom up.
These numbers tell us why we are now in an election season which might conceivably permit a conservative Republican to be elected for the last time in a generation at least.
Time is not our friend.
