PhatMack19 Posted August 31, 2016 Report Posted August 31, 2016 From most reports he did very well today in his meeting with the Mexican president. The president even admitted that we need to work on trade deals that are more favorable to the US. At least Trump is out working and not in hiding like Hillary. Quote

TxHoops Posted September 1, 2016 Report Posted September 1, 2016 Read an interesting statistic today. George HW Bush received 59 percent of the white vote in 1992. He earned 426 electoral votes. Mitt Romney received precisely the same share of that vote in 2012, for which he earned 206 electoral votes. Draw your own conclusions... Quote

Expand Based on just these stats, it sounds like the minority vote is becoming more and more monolithic and is responsible for electing Democrats who enslave them into socialist government programs. Is this the same conclusion you draw from these stats? 77 and shovel 2 Quote

Expand But to be fair and answer your question more directly, I think Trump will be far more instrumental in mobilizing the minority vote than Hillary, if you get my drift. And I also look for a spike in Hispanic vote. I would not predict record number is the African American vote but I also don't think you will see as big of a dip as one might assume. Overall, I would think the "non-white" vote may even exceed 2012. But I would be the first to admit that while I enjoy looking at the numbers and data (to a nerdy degree if you ask my wife), I am by no means an expert on the subject. Quote

TxHoops Posted September 1, 2016 Report Posted September 1, 2016 Also becoming evident is that the 3rd party candidates appear to be pulling more votes from Hillary than Trump (just as, contrary to prevalent yet incorrect beliefs, Perot cost her husband more votes than Bush). So much for the "a vote for Johnson is a vote for Hillary" fallacy... Quote

So much for the "a vote for Johnson is a vote for Hillary" fallacy... Expand If you're talking to a person that is undecided between Trump and Johnson, then the "fallacy" is true...a vote for Johnson is a vote for Hillary. If talking to a person undecided between Hillary and Johnson, then a vote for Johnson is a vote for Trump. If talking to a person that is either voting for Johnson or will not vote, then he makes no difference. Sounds like more Hillary/Johnson undecideds are waking up to the fact that she is an unconvicted felon and unfit to occupy the office. I did see a poll today where Hillary's lead has shrunk to around 3 points. I didn't see (or it didn't say) what demographics have switched. Could be a mixture. Quote

What does that have to do with Hillary not doing press conferences? Maybe it has something to do with her saying the wrong thing and ending up in prison. Whether you like Trump or not, you do have to admire the fact that Trump is working his butt off. The guy is everywhere giving multiple speeches and appearances each day, while Hillary naps and fundraises. Quote

Besides, I'm more of a Matthew McConaughey guy \m/. (Another one that's out there.) Expand Mentioning Brad was to get the female vote. The fact that many vote on the sex of a person, or race of a person, physical looks, etc, is alien to most of us. If a green female hobbit, that was conservative was running in either of the major parties, I'd vote for her (would hope she'd wear shoes to State functions lol). Quote

stevenash Posted September 1, 2016 Report Posted September 1, 2016 When I think about it, I am surprised that the Dems don't absolutely love the Trump wall idea. How can they not like something that is, by virtue of Mexico paying for it, a bit of "free stuff"? Nothing appeals to them more than saying " I am going to give you this and I will make some other guy pay for it". ( the answer is probably that the free wall is not done via a tax hike) Quote
