I'm pointing out that Republicans and Democrats are equals on this score: Exclusion by demographic. Democrats target the demographics they want to suck into their machine. Republicans just aren't as good at it.


And that's where you are wrong. Dems are more accepting of diversity because they have worked at becoming more accepting. Many Rs are unrepentant racists. The difference is significant.

Bullshit, Dave. Republicans EAGERLY adopted all the southern racists abandoned by the (D)'s equal-rights initiatives of the 1960's. As a consequence, the formerly (D) "Solid South" is now the REPUBLICAN "Solid South". All Blacks and Hispanics are doing is going with the party that actually works for THEM, and doesn't seem to reject and hate them.

You clowns just lacked the imagination to see that the minorities would become crucial. A racist sentiment, branded by many years of racist campaigning and dog-whistle politics appealing to frightened whites.
