    Default The Slow Partisan Shift of America’s Elderly

    As the elderly have begun to realize that Republicans aren’t going to necessarily protect these social programs that are so important to the demographic, they’ve become disillusioned, and have begun to – very slowly – shift away from the party. This provides a massive opportunity for the Democrats to capitalize upon; the elderly have often been seen as consistently Republican and simply overlooked by Democrats in terms of campaign targeting. However, the slow shift of this voting bloc towards the partisan center could bring them into play on the national scale, and could absolutely sway elections, as their formidable voting power demonstrates.

    “If we have to have a choice between being dead and pitied, and being alive with a bad image, we’d rather be alive and have the bad image.”

    — Golda Meir

    Zionism is the movement for the self-determination and statehood for the Jewish people in their ancestral homeland, the land of Israel.


    “If Hamas put down their weapons, there would be no more violence. If the Jews put down their weapons, there would be no Israel."

    If you ever went to the Villages, you would see that they are more right-wing/Repug than a clan rally. I doubt they can be reached, let along changed.
