Obama victory was multifactorial...

[christians4jews]

Why did the worst president ever win??

-Republicans are split. You have your moderate john mccaine esque neo cons, and the tea party social conservative ones. Did Romney excite the evangelical christians like say huckabee would??

-Demographics-texas will soon be a democrat state when the white majority is eroded. Look at California. As Chaim mentions, bac in the 80's it wasa republican stronghold.

-Everythings dumbed down. Education, tv, movie which  means politics. Did young voters care about weed legalisation, or the fct Amercias going bankcrupt???

White persons not Hispanic, percent, 2011  44.8% 

Texas already has a white minority status but we still don't get any benefits for being a minority here and I doubt we ever will.

Sometimes the statistics can get muddled up because the Census Bureau often calls people of mixed Mexican Indian/Spanish descent as white. If someone is a pure Spaniard or close to it I'd agree but they will often call people that are almost pure Indio white. I think that's why they divide it into White (Hispanic) and White (Non-Hispanic). Unfortunately they also count people like Arabs and Iranians as white too and I don't agree with that either so the number is probably actually a lot less than that 44.8%.

If Texas becomes another Blue state the US would become a single party regime.

Don't worry. After 2016, you wont ever have to vote again.

I doubt it will come to that. The question is whether we will really have fair elections ever again.
