Latinos supposedly hate Trump's immigration policies, yet this happened? Uh oh..

I think that is not true across the board. People are complex. I know some second and even some first generation Latinos that are very supportive of Trump and his immigration policies.

It is true that no Republican Presidential candidate has ever won a majority of the Latino vote, I think GW Bush peaked at about 35%.

In contrast, Republican candidates have done very poorly with African American vote since Barry Goldwater ran in 1964. Shortly before the Republican Convention, he voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which Johnson championed and signed into law. Goldwater said that he considered desegregation a states' rights issue, rather than a national policy, and believed the 1964 act to be unconstitutional. Goldwater's vote against the legislation helped cause African-Americans to overwhelmingly support Johnson.

Nonwhite vote
Eisenhower 21% in 1952.
Eisenhower 39% in 1956.
Nixon 32% in 1960.
Goldwater 6% in 1964.
Nixon 12% in 1968.
Nixon 13% in 1972.
Ford 15% in 1976
Reagan 10% in 1980
Reagan 13% in 1984
Bush H 18% in 1988
Bush H 11% in 1992
Dole 12% in 1996
starting in 2000 the Gallup polls started distinguishing Black and Latino



In 1960 Kennedy won the black vote in most areas by wide margins, and this may have provided his margin of victory in states such as New Jersey, South Carolina, Illinois, and Missouri. The 1960 election was so close that the female vote, the Mexican-American vote, and the black vote all have credible claims to making JFK the president.

By the way isn't it funny how liberals spent years telling us that we shouldn't talk about Bill Clinton's private life and Ted Kennedy's private life? According to libs a man's private life is off limits!!!

I'm the rare liberal that believes Juanita Broaddrick. I think he probably raped Juanita.

I also think it's extremely sketchy that Clinton socializes privately with Jeffrey Epstein. Even if Clinton's friendship with Epstein is 100% innocent, (I'm skeptical) it's really really weird that Clinton would want to be seen with him, considering Clinton's background with Lewinsky. Perhaps Clinton flies on Epstein's airplane because Clinton is a cheapskate who likes free air travel, but surely Clinton has other options: he must know dozens of billionaires with airplanes that aren't routinely used to transport underage teenage girls.

This video footage of Al Gore discussing Broaddrick is... uncomfortable.

Dunkin' Donuts is dropping the 'Donuts' from its name, despite the fact it helped invent the word 'donut'

Donuts are less and less of what they sell, but this reeks of some MBA just having to "do something."

Like the boss man said, "do something, even if it's wrong".

A lot of my coworkers live in Massachusetts. They're obsessed with Dunkin Donuts. Not for the donuts, for the coffee. It seems almost bigger than Starbucks around there.

It’s one those rare cheap and best things. Their coffee is among the best.

Did anybody see the three major Lib
networks tear Ronan Farrow and his
female buddy up on the morning shows?

They grilled them relentlessly on how
full of holes the story they had in
The New Yorker is. They must be realizing
how out of bounds this whole fake
news smear campaign on Kavanaugh
has gotten.

And Avanatti has run for hills and locked
his Twitter account. The roaches scatter
when light is shined on them..

Your ignorance about basic statistics is laughable. I am embarrassed for you.

Personal insult. Three-day suspension.
