GOP: Go for the White People

Post by JohnStOnge »

At least in the immediate future. This occurred to me when I was having text exchanges with my wife today and she was asking me about who voted how in different groups during the 2012 Presidential election.

During the course of the exchange I mentioned that if 10% of Whites who voted for Obama had voted for Romney instead Romney would have won the popular vote. Romney won among Whites by 59 - 39%. If the same number of Whites had voted and Romney had won by 63 - 36% among them (I rounded 1/10th of 39 to 4), Romney would've won the popular vote. Or something like that. There's margin of error in polling and consideration of the electoral college but the point is that Romney could've won by being a little more persuasive with respect to Whites. There's also the matter of an actual decline in the absolute number of White voters in that election. Just turning Whites out is also a factor.

And, to me, focusing on the White vote right now is a more realistic approach for Republicans than trying to convince the voters among the other ethnicities to vote other than Democrat. Focus on turning out and increasing support among the ethnic group that already supports you and that still is and will for some time be the majority of the population rather than wasting your time trying to increase support among minority ethnic groups that always autonomically vote Democrat in overwhelming majorities.

Now, down the line you will have to change that approach as demographics change. But I really do think that in the here and now that would maximize the odds.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

:shock: Holy sh*t!

As a lib I sure do hope that you haven't shared this revolutionary bit of out-of-the-box thinking with the power structure of the GOP. This could be a game changer folks - try to imagine - the republican party as the party of the white establishment.......this is right up there with General Relativity....

No, but one needs a sense of humor in order to troll people.

That disqualifies JSO.

Let's be real, white people are the most fickle and heterogeneous racial voting group there is. No one candidate can win as high a percentage of whites as some can get Hispanics or blacks. It's just not going to happen. Hispanics would be close if it weren't for the immigration issue and blacks give absolute unconditional loyalty to Democrats.

It's much easier to get a klean and a poor urban black person on the same page than it is to get a Chizzang in the Pacific Northwest and some white, blue-collar joe six-pack in deep-red Kentucky on the same page.
