    Men and Women votes in the last Presidential election cycles.

    Men (D/R)

    2008 -- 49/48
    2012 -- 45/52
    2016 -- 41/52

    Women (D/R)

    2008 -- 56/43
    2012 -- 55/44
    2016 -- 54/41

    All the news swearing that Progressives have the women vote are pretty much full of it. They are trying to attack "White Women" now in order to change that, since they are in fact losing women vote each year.

    The crazy thing is, this loss of women voting D happened in a year where the first women President ran for office.

    I am not sure why the media is trying to make women this universal voting bloc, it doesn't seem to work. In the same period where Progressives have absolutely dominated and taken over the Democratic Party, what has happened to their "Black Vote" that has been taken for granted as a solid block?

    Black (D/R)

    2008 -- 95/4
    2012 -- 93/6
    2016 -- 88/8

    The tactics being used by Progressives are not working, they are dividing people too much and creating FAR too much anger.

    BONUS POINT WHITE ROUND! Since white men have been painted for almost a decade as evil and white women now starting to get the same treatment.

    What is the white vote doing? Let's go back even further to see a trend here ....

    White (D/R)

    2000 -- 42/55
    2004 -- 41/58
    2008 -- 43/55
    2012 -- 39/59
    2016 -- 37/58

    EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE DEMOGRAPHICS IS BAD FOR DEMOCRATS

    Yeah, right, and the sun sets in the East.

    Something has to be done to change the way we vote, because the present circumstance is dead wrong and for a number of different reasons.

    First, lets correct the mistakes of gerrymandering and the Electoral College. Then we can see what must be done to get more women out to vote. (But this latter, with the younger generation, is happening all by itself.

    The more women become educated also the more they are running and getting elected to political office. (And the more educated people get, the more they vote Democrat.)

    From here: As Americans become more educated, the GOP is moving in the opposite direction - excerpt:

    Tolerance is a social sense necessary for people living together without strife.

    Politics is a question of voting according to our beliefs and being represented politically in that manner to determine how personal rights (and wrongs) should be determined by laws ...

    Probably.... But not really interested in wasting my time proving it. I do remember seeing them making big waves about it.

    I do.

    Let's put it this way: If a Democratic President were to nominate, at any point in the future, somebody who made a political speech against Republicans, like the one Kavannaugh made against Democrats, I would not consider that person in any way honorable or qualified for SCOTUS.

    That was no speech that was a rant with threats. Brat "pickled liver" Kavanaugh came up via the entitled elite pipeline and in no way was qualified. As for honorable...hahahaha. The little prick is on video lying while under oath.

    Are you talking about him lying in relation to Ford or lying before his nomination to SCOTUS?

    You seem to conflate politics with governance. Politics are nothing more or less than public-relationships. Government, in any of its forms, is simply the legal use of force between equals. The problem in our public discourse, as I see it, is that our politics are governed by the legal use of force. In other words, the problem is that as soon as someone hears 'politics' they think 'government'.

    Tolerance, like liberty and charity, has a voluntary nature. They cannot be imposed by force, not even by force of law.

    Care to list a few threats

    The left's jealousy is no excuse for hateful and dishonest acts by their actions against the Kavanaugh family.

    Of course he was extremely well qualified. Otherwise the Democrats wouldn't have had to make up all of the fake charges against him.

    Had he been unqualified at least one Democrat, and most Republicans, would have mentioned it.

    I'm sorry if Kavanaugh triggered you.

    Who did you think that threatened, and who told you it was a threat?

    I don't believe you.

    Even the worst TDS sufferers know in their hearts that they're being partisan. You're smart enough to know that.

    The purpose of the left's propoganda campaign on Trump, the GOP, and everyone associated with them is to convince the weak-minded that bad actions are justified. Lies, defamation, destroying families, cheating, judicial over-reach, and violence is OK if you're in "The Resistance".

    Quote Kavanaugh's statements and proof that he lied.

    If you can

    Even if that were so, the facts are the facts. And the facts are that Kavanaugh lied under oath and made it clear that he would be an activist partisan judge in his speech. The fact is also that Trump is a criminal.

    Whatever the propaganda is to "convince the weak minded" of, those facts are clear.

    Well any lies relating to Ford would be very significant given that it means that he was lying to the senate committee. So which are you talking about? Ford, or lying before his nomination to SCOTUS?

    Nothing was lost. In fact, things were gained. For those who are against hegemony, we now have a 'right' SCOTUS for the first time since FDR rearranged the court in favor of the Democratic Party. This will bring some balance to laws, and actually thus allow us to live in social harmony.

    He lied, under oath, during his nomination hearings.

    What is the evidence for this? Can you cite anything?

    Most of my politics have absolutely nothing to do with the legal use of force. Most of my politics have absolutely nothing to do with force between equals at all. My politics are not governed by the use of force, legal or otherwise. I submit that the primary problem in the US today is exactly that too many people would have their best intentions for others imposed upon them by force of law. They do not consider having their best intentions imposed upon others to be a usurpation of other people's best intentions for themselves. They consider it the only reasonable alternative to chaos or having their counterpart's best intentions imposed upon them by force, or by mere exposure.

    Too many people equate other people having authority over themselves with chaos and having responsibility for themselves with oppression. These are those who are sincerely left to believe that everyone can live at the expense of everyone else.
