(2,730 posts)is wrong. Most of the Democrats in Congress have diverse Districts. The people in those Districts understand the problem. I can go further and make the claim these Republicans obstructing Policy decisions have made it a point to gerrymander themselves into 88 to 90 percent white districts. Most of these districts are rural and they are not that sensitive to urban problems. And most of these representatives come from red states in the South or middle of the United States where population is more sparse. So essentially you have a divided America along racial lines. I think the fella on the view pointed this out. There is no where in the History of the United States where a candidate for President won the plural votes of a single state and still loss that state. The Republicans are trying to manufacture that too along racial lines. The leaders of the Republican Party are extremists and intolerant. I would go even further and call them racists without any hesitation whatsoever. That is why I think the Republican Party is extremely dangerous to this country just like the Nazi Party was to Germany. That is what Americans need to resist and the whole World also. The problem wasn't just with George Bush and Cheney, it was his whole Party. They have the whole cabal, including the media propaganda apparatus promoting this supremacist complex. They have people in their Party calling other Americans non American based on religion, skin color and sexual orientation. They have even placed people on the Supreme Court to legally validate their intolerance into American law. DOMA and the attack on the Voting Rights Act are good examples of this. The Republican Party is the most dangerous Party in this country's history since the American Civil War. And when you start oppressing people too far, you know the results. The first Civil War was terrible and caused over 600,00 American lives. It can happen again. The Republican Party is moving this country towards dangerous territory.
