| #3 Minorities, in fact, have done far worse under this administration than virtually any in recent history, including George W. Bush. [Blacks account for] 12 percent of the nation’s population, [but] 21 percent of the nation’s jobless. Latinos, the other major part of the party’s “downstairs” coalition, have also fared badly under Obama. Overall, the gap in net worth of minority households compared to whites is greater today than in 2005. White households lost 16% in recent years, but African-Americans dropped 53% and Latinos a staggering 66% of their pre-crash wealth. The crucial part of this article is that the Democratic party has become the party of the urban elite. Blacks and Latinos are playing the role of suckers (along with the middle class). Anyone who supports the democrats and does not have a trust fund is about be scr*wed. |

| #2 Interesting piece, but Champ and the dems have not certainly not abandoned their quest for a permanent, one party system populated by unchecked immigration and the nanny state, food stamp and condom entitlement crowd. For a representative democracy to operate properly, the ability of an electorate to migrate between political parties must be present. Social engineering destroys the host culture (western faith based family structures) and seeks to establish a permanent, centrally controlled, strong-man, single party tyrany like that of Zimbabwe or North Korea. Where a permanent majority exists, democracy ends. |

| #1 With so many dead voters to assimilate into the party, it is an obvious necessity. |
