Showing Original Post only (View all)Hey Democrats and Progressives, why not WHITE MEN? [View all]
We've got the GOP on the ropes with the support of women, minorities, and the younger generation. Why not go for the one group that will knock them out cold - white men.
Are we consceding this group to the GOP? Do we see them as a lost cause? Do we think they don't relate to the issues of the left? What is it?
Liberal Democrats are better for the economy, peace, the environment, equal rights, national security, and energy. Do ALL white men not care about these issues. Is it really that bad?
My thoughts are that it really is that bad. Many white men, especially over 40, are bigoted, ignorant, war hungry 'jocks'. They think that any talk of peace, equal rights or talk of a clean environment is weak. They think that carrying a gun is strong. They that homosexuals should be picked on.
So, should Democrats use their strengths to go after this VERY LARGE group or should they let them die off until a smarter, more-informed, younger generation grows up and starts voting?
BTW, I'm a heterosexual white male that's over 40.
