The Vanishing Majority (White People) Must Rig Elections (practice racism) to Survive: GOP (The White Party) eyes new election laws in states Obama won
/
The GOP is the party of the vanishing majority in the U.S - white people. That is, the U.S. Census Bureau has reported that by 2047 non-white persons will be the majority of the US population. (Worldwide the white population is less than 10%.)
"The Republican party is a racial identity party. It is designed to appeal to white people as white people... not as union-members or as unemployed people or as home-owners... as white people. It is a crude racial-identity party and the numbers bear that out. It is an almost exclusively white party. Many white people vote Democratic, but the Republican party is pretty close to all white. (A fact that is soft-pedaled in out national dialog because it makes the modern Republican party sound like a racist institution, which it is.") [MORE]
Republicans now depend on this vanishing majority of whites for fully 90 percent of their votes in presidential elections, while the Democratic Party wins 60 to 70 percent of the Asian and Hispanic vote and 90 to 95 percent of the black vote. The Democratic base is growing inexorably, while the Republican base is shriveling. [MORE]
Already, California, Illinois and New York are lost. The GOP has not carried any of the three in six presidential elections. When Texas – where whites are a minority and a declining share of the population – tips, how does the GOP put together an electoral majority?

A Non-White Thing. Racism is the observable phenomemon that is ignored. (In photo, Non-White Voters stand in a long line at the Supervisor of Elections office in West Palm Beach, Florida for early voting on November 5, 2012. A Jim Crow tactic. By and large, white people in white voting precincts, Democrat or Republican did not have to wait in line to vote in the Presidential election. In a system of white supremacy what will they get for their vote? [MORE] and [MORE])
From [AP] After back-to-back presidential losses, Republicans in key states want to change the rules to make it easier for them to win.
From Wisconsin to Pennsylvania, GOP officials who control legislatures in states that supported President Barack Obama are considering changing state laws that give the winner of a state’s popular vote all of its Electoral College votes, too. Instead, these officials want Electoral College votes to be divided proportionally, a move that could transform the way the country elects its president.

Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus endorsed the idea this week, and other Republican leaders support it, too, suggesting that the effort may be gaining momentum. There are other signs that Republican state legislators, governors and veteran political strategists are seriously considering making the shift as the GOP looks to rebound from presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s Electoral College shellacking and the demographic changes that threaten the party’s long-term political prospects.

“It’s something that a lot of states that have been consistently blue that are fully controlled red ought to be looking at,” Priebus told the Wisconsin Journal Sentinel, emphasizing that each state must decide for itself.
