    Obama,Doug Jones, multiple 2018 elected dems etc would disagree.


    Abrams did better than any GA Governor candidate since 1998.GA is turning blue but it hasn't turned yet.Black voters stayed home in 2016.

  3. Yup. I dont see Ilan Oman and Tlaib in that picture and the Republicans dont need diversity badly enough to start recruiting terrorists.

    You can have them.

    Still trying to figure out how your assertions of funding for Boeing relate to it, but whatever. You don't know either, otherwise you would not have crabwalked away from it. You are lost in space.

    Maybe 80% of people running as republicans are white males but I suspect that number is higher, but certainly not 80% of people running as democrats.

    The real numbers are about 60% of the total number of people running for state and federal office are white males.

    If look real hard you might see Steve King though!

    As to corporate welfare vs welfare directly to the people, money spends the same way just one benefits the investor class and the other goes directly to the people.

    I mean there has never been quite a free stuff whopper as a wall Mexico will pay for though.

    My numbers are correct.
    85/65 Pub / Dem. or whatever.
    average is about 80% of the population running as white males.

    Then you have to consider their respective voting bases.

    There’s a reason why more women vote Democrat.
    And there’s a reason why white men run for office.

    You should be able to figure it out.

    Hint: it’s because they get elected.

    Wrong.

    https://www.rollcall.com/news/polit...r-office-as-more-women-and-minorities-step-up

    “From 2012 to 2016, white men, who represented only 32 percent of the population, were 65 percent of all candidates and 65 percent of all elected officeholders at the local, state, and federal level, it found.”

    That number has gone down since 2018.

    *As a note, if I thought you had even a smidgen of intelligence I wouldn’t have done the research for you but you’re obviously feeble minded.
