Republikkkans are dying off. The aging white Evangelical males (and their subservient spouses) are dying off.

The country is becoming darker with growing populations of minorities, especially Latinos.

Younger voters grew up with a cell phone. They aren't beholden to landlines and in fact find them obsolete.

Younger voters are looking for someone who can lay out a vision for the future that includes them and gives them promise and hope.

As a result they are attracted to Libertarian and Democratic candidates. Republicans do not need to apply for their vote because they won't get it.

Younger voters overwhelmingly support marriage equality and other rights for LGBT individuals. Once the older generation dies off the hateful bigotry against LGBT individuals will go with it. There will still be hateful bigots in this world but they will be in the minority.
