    Obviously boomers of all political stripes are reaching their sell by dates but the problem is that there are fewer whites being born to replace them than ever before.

    Since the GOP only has a white base that means that it is effectively shrinking while the Dems are expanding their base amongst minorities.

    Your anecdote is irrelevant and the meme that people become more conservative as they get older has been debunked by scientific studies.

    Y'all are not going to be happy when the US turns into South Africa or Mexico.

    You can't eat all that virtue.

    We can see that very clearly......

    The Democrats have lost seat after seat by operating on the Obama Agenda playbook. The far left has taken over the party and commenced to killing it. The Democrat party is in deep deep trouble with the American people. The temper tantrum they continue to have over Trump will only make matters worse for them in 2018. The people handed the Republicans the House in 2010. When that wasn't enough to get the Democrats to give up their destructive socialist agenda, they gave the Republicans the Senate in 2014. Obama picked up his phone and pen and commenced to go around the Congress the people elected to represent them. I'm sure that was a big part in Trump winning the White House and giving the Republicans the whole thing. Now the Democrats are openly obstructing the people we put in power to reverse course on the Obama left wing agenda. I have a feeling that The Democrats will lose all 10 Senate seats up for re-election in States Trump won. The party needs to realize that Pelosi and Schumer are stepping on the accelerator instead of the brake as they're headed for the cliff.

    The national debt rose to over twenty trillion dollars under Barack Obama while he laughed at this nation and worshipful Obama supporters laughed right along with him; but NOW -- mysteriously -- leftists suddenly care about . . . debt?

    It's some sort of glorious miracle! Hallelujah! All it took was to get the fiscally irresponsible Obama out of office and then leftists become . . . fiscal hawks.

    Too funny. Hispanics are typically devout Catholics. Democrats continue to marginalize, and demonize their religious beliefs. Top Dems insisting abortion be the partys new litmus test is going to backfire magnificently.

    I think Trumps winning the swing states in indicative of the DNCs marginalization of white voters, particularly Catholics. I hope democrats continue to push abortion as it's litmus test.

    The same guy who coined the term for what he represents doesn't represent what he says he does?

    :roflol:

    The extremist alt right is obviously at war with itself as well as the GOP, the majority of the nation and the entire sane world!

    And the younger generations do not share the experiences of old whites as they age , they are more open and accepting of diversity

    From looking over this thread, scanning the posts, if that is all I had to go by, it would be very easy for me to come to the conclusion that the Democratic Party hates white people and the Republican Party hates minorities, especially blacks and hispanics. Is this what everyone is trying to convoy?

    Sen Kennedy did not lie because he was talking about LEGAL immigration.

    Kennedy was NOT responsible for greedy corporations hiring ILLEGAL immigrants.

    Try putting the blame where it actually belongs.

    On the GOP's corporate lords and masters.

    If you supported ObamaCare then those "free contraceptives" would take care of those "welfare babies they pump out" for you?

    But instead you demand that it must be repealed!

    Is your cognitive dissonance that deafening that you cannot appreciate that you are doing yourself more harm than good?

    Still the largest minority. What part of this is hard to grasp? Biggest political donor class too. Once Dems no longer have identity politics as a platform their fate is sealed. You can't build a party of entitlements addicts and over tax the declining population you've unseated. Entertainers, and athletes need audiences with jobs. Entitlements recipients need taxpayers. You just don't get that your witnessing the decline of the geese who lay the golden eggs. What do you think corporate inversions, out-sourcing, and offshoring indicates? I assure you the wealthy in Venezuela are getting wealthier while the masses starve.

    Agreed on Hispanics. As a demographic, Hispanics are the perfect Republicans; religious, family oriented and traditionalist. The "Republican Autopsy" even pointed this out and recommended the party focus on this growing demographic. The RNC, however, blew it off resulting in most Hispanics voting Democrat.

    I don't support leftist policies and ideology. You do. You supported and blindly follow a leftist President who wants to destroy the Republican Party. You, like the other leftists, also want to destroy the Republican Party. I always suspected you were a leftist.

    Not a big deal to me, but I think some members of this forum are engaging in fear-mongering and flame-baiting. The world is changing and has been changing for all of recorded history. People come to America to live the American Dream. Their race and religion are secondary to this.

    And you'll get your wish to have Chuck Schumer be the Majority Leader. That's what you and President Trump wanted all along anyway.
