Breitbart tells us that the white birthrate has dropped below replacement level in all 50 states.
This happening in Brooklyn, San Francisco, Austin is understandable. But what's up with Utah, Mississippi, Kentucky? Come on fellas, a VS box, some flowers, candlelight....this ain't rocket science guys.
Cometh the GOP's demographic demise. Or not.
Salena Zeto (PBUH) reports that FL Senator Rick Scott won 48 percent of the Hispanic vote in his two races for governor.
Ahhh, the Cubans*, says the skeptic. Cubans understandably loath the Party of Castro But the Cuban vote only accounted for 35% of the overall Hispanic vote.
Then there's the Texas case. Between 1994 and 2006 W and Rick Perry got between 33 and 49 percent of the Hispanic vote.
And in 2004 W got between 40-44 percent of the Hispanic vote nationally. The Democrat Party of Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez thinks race trumps everything. Being a Venezuelan style Marxist, AOC should understand that race is a construct and class is everything.
This is not unusual. In Texas, W and Rick Perry used to nab 30-50 percent of the Hispanic vote. In the 2004 election, W got 40-44 percent of the vote. The article notes, as we have noted, that Rick Scott is making great inroads with the Hispanic community in Florida.
The swing comes despite the border-family controversy. Or becuase? A side theory: as there are deep divisions within the Jewish community* so there are deep divisions within the Hispanic community, which is really many communities. A Mexican may not necessarily be all that upset about ICE deporting a Honduran.
But there is one identifier that is more important than race/ethnicity and that's class.
Of course we live in Chindia. Our friends and neighbors are indistinguishable from us except for their race.
Middleclass persons, whether white, Jewish, Chindian or Hispanic, like prosperity.
Which explains the Hispanic swing toward Trump.
Democrats, being Marxists at heart, should understand economic determinism.
