(363 posts)Only 39% of white people voted democrat in 2012 and even a majority of white women voted republican. This is no problem for left democrats as we prefer working with minority democrats who soon will be majority of party. Big problem for white corporate democrats who want to push corporate agenda and run for office. This is why they keep trying to appeal to moderate republicans(if any still exist) instead of democratic party base which they think is to liberal! In arizona fred duvaal ran for governor as third way democrat trying to appeal to republicans who loath democrats instead of latinos who loath republicans. The rich old white democrats in my state fear if latinos take over the party they can't win primary election for their self aggradizement ego trips!
