Simple Question:

[gopiscrap]

Why in the fuck would anybody who is a woman, person of color, LGBT, member of a union, educator, social worker, poor, disabled, on food stamps, union member or immigrant EVER vote Republican?

[Nye Bevan]

1. Because they truly believe that life begins at conception,

and that abortion is murder, and that trumps everything else? Or they truly hate the concept of gay marriage?

[gopiscrap]

2. or an African American president?

[Nye Bevan]

5. I was thinking more generally, like why would they vote for Bush over Kerry too,

and why would they vote for someome like Ted Cruz.

[gopiscrap]

6. yup that's actually where my head was at

3. They've been completely propagandized for decades.

Now their little more than useful idiots.

[gopiscrap]

4. they're not even useful anymore!

7. Because of social issues.

Many of them tend to be so hung up on guns, gays, or women having abortions, that they neglect how the GOP has aimed to undo the New Deal since the mid-20th century. As far as why upper-class and rich women, minorities, gays, immigrants, etc. vote Republican, it's mainly for tax breaks.

8. the latter part to me is selfish
