When you have turned your back on every minority & kicked them in the teeth & degraded them, they tend not to vote for you!! lol Eagle Forums Phyllis Schlafly is riled up about comprehensive immigration reform, and she has hardly been hiding the reason why. Last month, Schlafly predicted that comprehensive reform would be suicide for the Republican Party because immigrants come from a country where they expect a handout from the government. Last week, she lamented that todays immigrants are less patriotic than the Irish, Italian, Jewish, etc. immigrants of earlier generations. Then, she claimed that Mitt Romney lost the presidential election not because of eroding support for the GOP among people of color, but because his drop-off from white voters was tremendous which is just blatantly false. But in an interview this week with conservative radio program Focus Today, Schlafly just came right out and said it. Calling the GOPs need to reach out to Latinos a great myth, Schlafly said that the people the Republicans should reach out to are the white votes, the white voters who didnt vote in the last election. Schlafly accused the Republican establishment of nominating a series of losers who dont connect with the grassroots. The propagandists are leading us down the wrong path, she said. Theres not any evidence at all that these Hispanics coming in from Mexico will vote Republican. Although she doesnt say it in so many words, Schlafly is basically repeating Pat Buchanans call for the GOP to revive the Southern Strategy, stirring up racial resentment among white voters against Latino immigrants in order to boost turnout.

The Republicans and the Teapublicans are alienating low income white voters as well, with the claims they are lazy, overpaid, and leeches on government assistance programs. The conservatives’ and neoconservatives’ own lies and their hatred of all who are not rich, white, and Christian are pushing more and more voters away, making it much, much easier for voters to pick the better candidate.
who claims low income white voters are lazy overpaid leeches? you *******s live in a world of your own twisted imagination
You obviously don't pay attention, or don't comprehend the opinions your fellow right-wingers post here on these message boards daily.
Dream on... Just because you say something, doesn't make it true. You claim absolutes, yet if you believe your own rhetoric, then you don't come from a mixed race family. My Hispanic wife, two daughters, and their families, after watching their father, brothers, sons and extended family denied by AA again and again, are all hostile and total against the Democratic Party BECAUSE of their Government Institutionalized Racial Discrimination. When you deny the White Men in their families, you take food from the mouths of their partially white children. Just because a 90% of the CEOs are white men, doesnt mean that 90% of white men are CEOs! -
The Repubicans have always been about the white vote since Nixon and Reagan's southern strategy. If Reagan would have known then what the demographics of this country would look like in 2014, he would never have given that states rights speech specifically to woo southern racists to the Republican party.
im sure i do so why dont you show me an example of what im missing and explain the bridge between their comment and your conclusion.
