The republicans are certainly screwed up in a whole host of ways, but how could a white person ever stomach voting for what the democrat party has become. They hate white people and dont mind showing it either.
non-college educated white men and women are less likely to vote for democrats compared to republicans. I guarantee you’re not college educated or you would know why college educated whites are shifting to democrats.
1. I guarantee you do not hold a higher degree from an accredited US institution than I. 2. College men were also less likely to vote for democrats. 3. Overall yourpoints were virtually meaningless. Democrats have moved to the left abandoning whites... https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...-the-nation-got-there/?utm_term=.22613ea8ecb3 This is politically important because the average white voter is more economically conservative and more socially liberal on issues such as abortion, gay rights and so on than the average nonwhite voter. (This varies by education level, as I’ll discuss below.) [White people grew more conservative — and Republican — as they moved up economically] As the ratio of nonwhites to whites has increased, an increasing proportion of whites are now “right of center” on economic issues and “left of center” on social issues. The growth of the nonwhite population has pulled the overall median away from the median white citizen’s position — on both social and economic issues. Taking advantage of these demographic changes, the Democratic Party has courted and won more votes from ethnic and racial minority groups. However, at the same time, in response to these demographic changes, more whites have shifted rightward on economic issues. I built an index that combines individuals’ positions on a number of survey items and reduces their answers to one summary measure of economic liberalism. I found that 58 percent of whites were to the right of the median in 1972 — but that had become 65 percent in 2016. How Democrats are planning to take back power With Democratic optimism on the rise for a "blue wave" in 2018, here's their strategy for winning more state and national seats than Republicans. (Joyce Koh/The Washington Post) As most whites shift rightward, they perceive the Democratic Party to be shifting leftward I used the American National Election Study data to show that many whites view the Democratic Party as moving further away from their own positions. This is true both when whites are asked to assess the positions of the parties generally and on a variety of specific issues such as government-sponsored health care and the government’s role in providing employment. My research suggests this combination of political “sorting” and changing white perceptions of the Democratic Party has resulted in an almost eight-point swing in white vote choice. That lines up well with actual vote returns. White votes were split between the two parties about 50-50 in the 1970s — but in elections since 2000, that has become closer to 60-40 in favor of the Republican Party. Democrats might be gaining more votes from Latinos, Asians and other emerging demographic groups, but they are losing whites as a result. Furthermore, the demographics of the white voters who are likely to support Democrats are different from the white voters who supported the Democratic Party in previous decades. Most notably, while the Democratic Party is winning a lower percentage of whites overall, a greater proportion of college-educated whites are voting for Democrats. Attitudes on social issues in particular have become stronger predictors of voting behavior in recent elections; economic attitudes have become more important, too, but were already quite a strong predictor to start with. The Democratic Party is increasingly a coalition of professional-class whites and members of ethnic and racial minority groups. Overall, the Democratic Party has made inroads among socially liberal whites while losing social and economic conservatives. These changes have altered the Democratic Party’s prospects in presidential elections. While Democrats might be winning more college-educated whites, members of that group often live in states that are already heavily tilted toward Democrats. Whites without college degrees make up a large proportion of voters in many critical swing states in the Upper Midwest — the very states Trump was able to flip from blue to red in 2016. Thus the Democratic Party is not simply winning a lower proportion of white voters; the whites who are getting more likely to vote for Democrats are less helpful in carrying the electoral college. The decrease in white support for the Democratic Party is one of the most important trends in U.S. politics. This shift in white voting behavior is the result of changes of the parties’ positions and the country’s demographics. Joshua N.

I will bet you do not have a higher level of education than I at an accredited U.S. University. How much would you like to bet?
"Than me" Your grammar is that of an 8yo. The vast majority of uneducated males vote GOP. You don't understand demographic trends. Post-grad males vote overwhelmingly DEM.
For person withe pretentious boat name.. 1. Proper grammar for anyone older than an 8 year old would be... I guarantee you do not hold a higher degree from an accredited US institution than I hold. * you would never say.. I guarantee you do not hold a higher degree from an accredited US institution than me hold. *That is the way you test to determine whether you should write than me or than I. So destriero whose writing I can not see in chrome because I think he blocked me or perhaps I blocked him got his correction ass backward. I would hope he would be mature and admit his correction and insult were misguided. (Its possible than me would have worked... but it was not wrong to write "than I") 2. The rest of his comment was unnecessary as well. The point he made was already granted.
"than me hold" WTF. Complete fail. Frigging tards are beginning to talk like Tonto since Pocahontas announced.
