I think it's fair to say that the demographics of america have changed a lot. And, unfortunately, the republican party hasn't really appealed to non-white ethnicities. Most would agree the republican party is extremely white. Whenever this topic comes up, representatives always say how they have to "appeal" to them more, and give them stuff. How about giving them respect? There's a certain air in the republican party, that I feel makes non-whites feel unwelcome. Demographics have come to a point where you have to respect these people. I really hope they change their attitudes with this. And no, it's not about adding a token minority to their party, it's much bigger than that.
FYI: the air I'm speaking of is caused by many things...immigration policy, voter suppression, even policing in the state of arizona. People feel threatened to some degree, but mostly disrespected. Oh yeah, let's not forget Romney's incredible way with words, what with his 47% speech, and the recent explanation of his loss. Talk about taking the ship down with you. Hopefully the next election will showcase more moderate republicans.
