Are you concerned about replacement?

What makes you think that? GThe data I shared was for poverty, which impacts those of the lower-middle-class who were falling below that threshold and into poverty before the era of WTO and NAFTA. The middle-class was shrinking back then, as the ranks of the poor grew. Since NAFTA and WTO came along, the middle class has grown, as more people have managed to climb out of poverty.

But maybe you're thinking about the true middle class, rather than those teetering near poverty. Well, we have data on that, too:

https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/MEFAINUSA672N

In the 20 years before NAFTA and WTO, real median family income went from $62,929 to $65,377. That's an increase of 3.9% in 20 years... barely anything at all. By 2013, it was $72,869. That's up 11.5% over 20 years.

So, now that you know that the middle class was advancing about three times as faster after those trade deals as before, does it cause you to reexamine your assumptions?

all that's come to an end quickly.

you can hide a flawed economy with easy money and low interest rates.

that's what they have been doing.

i already addressed this. you would know that if you were a careful reader.
 
According to polling data about a third of Republicans are concerned about the possibility that due to immigration and birth rates traditionally American European culture will be replaced by other growing currently minority cultures in the United States.

Are you actively concerned about this? If so, why? And what would you have be done about it?

And now if a picture has more than about 45% white (and most of them had better be women!" it is believed that people of color are underrepresented, are getting screwed.

Americans are now stunningly ignorant people.
 
decimated is the wrong word. that just means cut by 1/10. its been worse than that for the middle class globalized first world economies as of late.

1/10 would be doable.
 
America is a multicultural country. It is precisely WHO WE ARE.

There is a racial undercurrent who sees it as a white country, and identify whites as "traditional Americans." Unfortunately, they now have strong, powerful allies in the media and in politics.

It's time to start shining a light on the causes for things like this. It's gotta end.
 
I'm not. I'm an independent and always have been registered that way. I supported Sanders in 2016.... however, where I disagree with a lot of my fellow Sanders supporters is in that I'm willing to be honest about what happened in 2016. The DNC ran a surprisingly fair election. When the Russians hacked them and aired their "dirty laundry," I was shocked how little dirt there was.

I mean, Clinton was a long-time loyal Democrat and a valuable friend and ally to many people in the party leadership, and she was facing off against a guy who'd spent his whole career refusing to join the party and spending half his time attacking them. When faced with a contest between one of their own and a man who'd been a thorn in their side for decades (but who now wanted their backing for his political ambitions), I'd assumed they would be putting a heavy thumb on the scale when deciding. So, when the Russians got their hands on private communications and shared, I assumed there'd be all kinds of smoking guns. But there was almost nothing. I mean, literally, it was such scarce pickings that the DNC bashers were left having to gripe about someone telling Hillary Clinton that a debate in Flint Michigan at the height of the front-page water crisis story might have a question about the water crisis there..... which is about as much of a "well duh" attempt to give her a leg up as I can imagine.

Anyway, Clinton wasn't my first choice.... or my second or third, really. But she ran a good campaign and won not because of some trivial back-room maneuvering by DNC people, but because millions and millions more actual voters showed up and voted for her.



But, again, what exactly was he supposed to do about it?



The criticism was that he was saying Russia was our number one geopolitical foe.... at a time when al Qaeda was still a factor. And that was a period when there was still hope we could improve our relationship with Russia. It hadn't yet taken a hard turn towards autocracy (Medvedev, not Putin, was president at the time of Romney's comment). It wasn't yet expanding into Ukraine. So, there was a legitimate question about whether that first-term-Reagan-style "evil empire" rhetoric was a good idea at that time, when we might still hope to coax Russia into a better relationship by focusing on our common goals (like taking down Muslim terrorism), rather than framing them as our number one threat.

Slightly on a tangent here, but I always found it weird that the GOP effectively took the Medvedev interregnum as their moment to stake out an "Evil Empire" position again. Before that, when Russia was being pushed hard toward fascism by Putin, including waging war crimes on Chechnya, the GOP was surprisingly squishy on him, with Bush famously saying he looked into his eye and got a sense of his soul, and concluded he was straightforward and trustworthy. Then later, with Putin back in charge, Trump happily hung out all day in the man's pocket. But, in between, when there was some glimmer of hope Russia wouldn't just be a strong-man kleptocracy, when Putin at least nominally stepped away from the presidency, Romney was sounding the alarm. It's pretty weird.

the dems screwed bernie. come off it sister. i stopped reading then. you're so full of it.


you're only fooling yourself.

Update: Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), who comes from the Sanders wing of the party, just told CNN in response to Brazile's op-ed that the she believes the 2016 Democratic primary was "rigged."

The elevation of this issue by Warren, a possible 2020 contender, will certainly turn heads.
 
Bernie Sanders' supporters have a right to be angry.

The leaked emails from the Democratic National Committee apparently confirmed what they have said all along — that the political system was rigged against their candidate in favor of Hillary Clinton.

Children are at the leading edge of the nation's growing diversity. In all, 52.7 percent of U.S. population under age 18 belonged to a minority group in 2020 :awesome:

Why the Announcement of a Looming White Minority Makes Demographers Nervous

The graphic was splashy by the Census Bureau’s standards and it showed an unmistakable moment in America’s future: the year 2044, when white Americans were projected to fall below half the population and lose their majority status.

There was a time, a few decades ago, when America’s citizens did not lock their cars or their homes. There was no out of control crime or inflation or borders. No food shortages.

Your brighter future has been dimmed to a flicker as far left Democrat Socialists slowly but surely, destroy America.

I refuse to live that way. Like a scared animal. We dont lock our cars or our home. Having said that,....luckily we have the castle law here. I wake up if a mouse farts across the street. Any intruder will be met with flying lead and a bucket they get scraped in to.
 
Well, we don't really know if he could have been elected in those prior years. His problem, in the past, is that he was trying to build political momentum as a Democrat, and the Democrats have a tendency to neuter and marginalize their flakes. For example, consider another race-baiting media-whore New Yorker with stupid hair and a meager intellect, who first made a political name for himself by wading into the wrong side of a controversial violent crime case in the Big Apple back in the 1980's (that description applies equally well to Donald Trump and Al Sharpton). Sharpton tried to ride NY media notoriety to the Democratic nomination and was shown the door, as many clowns before him had been. Trump gave up on advancing as a Democrat and moved over to the clown-show side of the aisle, and only then succeeded.

I know nothing of the sort. I think she won because she ran a strong campaign that made her more popular with actual voters than her opponent. In fact, that's the seventh time she did that (counting her senate primaries and general elections, both her presidential primaries, and her one presidential election. Although she lost two of those races, thanks to delegates/electors, she got the popular vote every single time.

What, exactly, was he supposed to do?

As for the best road back to unity, I'm not terribly hopeful for the foreseeable future. The Baby Boomers are smack dab in the middle of the years when people's IQ's drop, and so it's reasonable to expect them to get dumber and dumber, on average -- more easily confused by disinformation, and more easily panicked by fear-mongering demagogues. Until that generation has largely died of, isn't it reasonable to think things are likely to keep getting worse, in terms of our political culture?

Thanks, Mina. I concede you are a fervent supporter of the Democratic Party. I also admire your will. Although you and I can disagree on the level of corruption within the Clinton Clan, I always admire fighters. Not a New Yorker but know who Al Sharpton is. I'm in Texas and support State's Rights. If people in Texas want to give a shit about Al Sharpton or Johnny Depp, I fully support their right to choice. I fully support a unalienable rights.

Sorry, ma'am, but there's a lot of insider Democratic evidence to the contrary. There's a reason why many Democratic leaders were happy to see the Clinton's lock on the party broken.

Regardless, the point being is that unity is a better solution to national problems than divisiveness. You're a staunch Democrat and I'm an Independent. Which of us is the problem in achieving national unity?

Hispanic conservative republicans will replace the aging white conservative republicans who are dying off. It's going to be hilarious when you pro open borders libtards realize it. :laugh:

Your boredom with your regular forum is noted. Unlike other forums, you aren't prohibited from talking about other forums on JPP. Are you from USMB? One of the Political Forums TPF set? Political Hotwire?

Some people only come to JPP when they are banned from their most favored forum. Your pattern indicates boredom. It's sporadic.

Did you know Legion is a Gimp? Leather suit and all! Really fucking weird.

You should post more often, dude. I'm always interested in interacting enough with someone to see their true face; who they really are.
 
conservatism is economic, not racial......lib'ruls will always be the losers on economic issues.....

There was a time, in the 'before times' when it was true. Sadly today it's a foreign film from Albania, direct to u-tube.
Now, it's just thieves and grifters, down punching real journalism.

And folks like you... suckle it. mmm, tasty, huh?

Proud puss rider.
