From [HERE] You only have to take one quick glance at the delegates in attendance at the RNC in Tampa, where only two percent are black, to tell that they belong to a party that’s reportedly 92 percent white. The nation’s shifting demographics have caused some Republican leaders to worry not only about the party’s future but about winning in November, particularly in key swing states such as Virginia and Nevada.
“The demographics race we’re losing badly,” said Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (S.C.). “We’re not generating enough angry white guys to stay in business for the long term.”
Exit polls from 2008 showed that 90 percent of GOP voters were white, a homogeneity that has been consistent for more than 30 years, even as the percentage of the electorate that is white has fallen. Behavior such as voter suppression is necessary for the white party's survival. In order for a smaller number of whites to maintain control over a majority of non-whites such behavior is necessary - that is what racism is, not hate & ignorance etc. -bw)
The U.S. Census' new projections predict that groups that are now labelled minorities will form the greater part of the country's population by 2042. [more] They represent the vanishing majority. In other words, the white race is shrinking while Latino, Black and Asian populations are rising. Key also, is the genetic fact that whites cannot reproduce white offspring when they have interracial relations with non-whites.
Politically this may mean the end of the Republican Party as a national governing institution. As explained by Republican Pat Buchanan, "Republicans now depend on the vanishing majority for fully 90 percent of their votes in presidential elections, while the Democratic Party wins 60 to 70 percent of the Asian and Hispanic vote and 90 to 95 percent of the black vote.The Democratic base is growing inexorably, while the Republican base is shriveling.
Already, California, Illinois and New York are lost. The GOP has not carried any of the three in five presidential elections. When Texas – where whites are a minority and a declining share of the population – tips, how does the GOP put together an electoral majority?" [MORE]
Nonwhite voters favored Obama over Romney by better than three to one in a Washington Post-Kaiser Family Foundation poll from early August; 74 percent of Latino voters and 90 percent of African Americans backed Obama.
