US Votes Along Race Lines
November 23, 2014
In the recent midterm elections , Whites voted Republican.
Despite their alliance with unions, the Democrats
have jettisoned the White working class in favor of
immigration, multiculturalism, and sexual deviance.
White workers have been forced to vote Republican
but will the party of the rich address their needs?
"Working class Whites are now forced to compete in a very slack labor market because of unregulated immigration-- hence their support for increasing the minimum wage -- and unable to move away from the onslaught or afford to put their children in private schools.

Race and the 2014 Election
(Abridged by henrymakow.com)
Race again loomed large in the 2014 [midterm] elections. The CNN exit polls showed that Whites voted Republican.
White males: 64%-33%:
White women: 56%-42% (likely much higher for married White women if past trends held);
Whites 18-29: 54-43%.
Whites without a college education voted 61-31 for Republican House candidates.
(These are underestimates because voters counted as White include groups, such as Jews and Middle Easterners, who neither identify or vote like Whites.)
As Thomas Edsall notes,
It has not escaped the notice of political analysts that 72 percent of whites without college degrees -- a rough proxy for what we used to call the white working class -- believe that "the U.S. economic system generally favors the wealthy." Or that on Nov. 4, these same men and women voted for Republican House candidates by a 61-31 margin.
Similarly, the overwhelmingly white electorates of Alaska, Arkansas, Nebraska and South Dakota voted decisively in referendums to raise the minimum wage while simultaneously voting for Republicans, whose party has adamantly rejected legislation to raise the minimum wage. ("The Demise of the White Democratic Voter")
Whites are deserting the Democratic Party, but that doesn't mean they advocate plutocratic policies traditionally associated with Republicans. They are voting Republican even though Democrats are generally seen as the party of the non-wealthy and are far more likely to advocate policies like minimum wage hikes.Race is never part of the explicit rhetoric of White opposition to policies [like Obamacare] that disproportionately benefit non-Whites -- it tends to be expressed as opposition to the federal government, the welfare state, taxation, and the desire for better schools, or even perceived moral issues like abortion and homosexuality.
But at the implicit level, the aversion to contributing to public goods for non-Whites is the overriding motivation for opposition to Obamacare. When Republicans shut down the US government over Obamacare, it was widely perceived as motivated by Whites concerned that poor non-Whites would disproportionately benefit from the law, while it would increase taxes on Whites.
IMMIGRATION
Far more than previously, immigration was an important issue in many Congressional elections -- likely because of the well-publicized Camp-of-the-Saints invasion from Central America last summer. (A NumbersUSA poll found that 74% of voters opposed an executive amnesty as promised by Obama.) Although it's easy enough to find Republicans who are soft on immigration (especially among the donor base), the Democrats are correctly seen as the party of amnesty, the proposed legal immigration surge, and non-enforcement of current immigration law.
(Thursday, Obama took "Executive Action" to protect five million illegal aliens, aka "undocumented immigrants" from deportation.) Immigration has been a disaster for White America generally because we are gradually losing the ability to control our own future in an environment where minorities with grudges against Whites are steadily gaining power in the Democratic Party. Recent research shows that Whites who are reminded about their impending minority status adopt more conservative positions on a wide range of policies -- from health care to guns.
But immigration is also an economic disaster for working class Whites in a way that it is not for more affluent Whites.
Working class Whites are now forced to compete in a very slack labor market because of unregulated immigration-- hence their support for increasing the minimum wage -- and unable to move away from the onslaught or afford to put their children in private schools.
The implication is that a populist Republican candidate who campaigned on White concerns related to immigration and redistribution policies that favor non-Whites would be able to win the presidency...
CONCLUSION
So both Republicans -- with their plutocratic, pro-immigration donor base -- and Democrats -- with their non-White, pro-L.G.B.T. coalition -- have problems in appealing to Whites, and especially the White working class.
This shift away from the parties of the left by working class Whites and the racialization of politics generally can also be seen in Europe where nationalist parties are generally pro-labor, anti-immigration, and anti-free trade. Beginning with the Frankfurt School's indictment that the German working class had voted for National Socialism (here, p. 159), the left has jettisoned the White working class, which had been its central constituency, in favor of immigration, multiculturalism, and sexual non-conformity. The advantages that Europe has are its ancient national traditions and that the two-party system is not so entrenched as in America, so that it is relatively easy to start new parties that will appeal to those left behind by the elites.
In the UK, the White working class is abandoning Labour, and UKIP is terrifying the LibLabCon establishment. "The recent European election result shows two thirds of white British voters backed either the Tories or Ukip. It goes on to reveal that two thirds of non-white voters supported Labour, which received the backing of just one in five white British voters." (see Tobias Langdon, "Leaving Labour: More on the Racialization of British Politics"). Sounds very parallel to what is happening in the U.S.And in France, a poll late last year noted White working class defections to the National Front from the Socialist party. Most encouraging, a recent poll has Marine Le Pen not only winning the first round if a presidential election were held now, but also winning the all-important second round, 54-46 against Hollande.
Marine Le Pen as the President of France! It could definitely happen.
And whatever concessions Le Pen makes in order to get elected, her election could unleash much more radical forces in the future that could indeed begin the process of taking back the West. And it might even make the Republican Party wake up to the potential of a winning coalition of Whites that could begin the process in the U.S. The numbers are definitely trending in the right direction.

The GOP is the party of implicit whiteness, but it is beyond useless. It already backed down from challenging Obama's illegal non-legislative Dream Act. It will probably also go along with the upcoming executive amnesty. The punitive tax hike on decent health plans will be kicking in just as Obama is leaving office. It is unlikely the GOP will do anything about that either. The GOP and mainstream conservatism are rotten to the core. Their true purpose is to prevent explicit white identity politics from emerging. We need to work on bringing about true white identity politics that will take the place of mainstream conservatism and the GOP. That should be the new mantra. Boycott the GOP and demand true white identity politics.
Junghans:
It is indeed the Jews, stupid. Their lock on the media gives them unprecedented power to deceive the unsuspecting, credulous Anglo public, and thusly undermine White civilization. Their main tool of subversion is 'normalizing' the abnormal. By relentlessly turning everything ass-backwards, they have so confused the general White mindset with this dissimulation, that today's surreal state-of-affairs is lethally trivialized as the "new normal And, incredibly enough, this sleight-of-hand is accepted as such by most clueless Whites!
This is an appalling commentary on the pathetic state of the White psyche. One has to wonder if we have a Jewish problem, or a race stupid White problem? Unless fortuitously broken, this ugly symbiosis of subversive Jewish deception and White credulity doesn't augur well for the survival of the White race.
First Comment from JG:
With all due respect to Professor MacDonald here, I would tend to disagree.
The poor working "white voters" and the "moral majority" have been abandoned by the Republican Party also.
The last time the Republicans controlled Senate, House, and the Oval Office under George Bush Jr. nothing changed.
Roe vs Wade was not overturned. Affirmative Action was not repealed. Illegal immigration reforms were not passed. And, the number of jobs that left America to Communist China had actually excellerated.
Washington today is no longer ruled by the elected officials themselves. Congress now answers to the lobbies and not the voters.
AIPAC, the Civil Rights Commission, and now the LBGT dictate the political platform of both the Democrats and Republicans. Any lobby that demands the enforcement of white constitutional liberties has been labeled "white identity" and declared a " hate group". White Americans today are not allowed to have any self-defined identity. They are stuck with whatever the MSM identifies them as.
The Christian Coalition and the "moral majority" has now been overruled by the "immoral minority" in Washington.
Voter turnout this November (36.3%) was the lowest since 1942. Americans are finally realizing that the power of their vote has been diminished.

From Dan:
I want to 'second' every point JG's made in his response.
Kevin McDonald said the numbers imply that a "populist Republican candidate" could win. But what difference would that make, really? Look at who the Republicans have given us for the last 50 years. Look at who the Democrats have given us.
Oh, they'll show you a candidate or two at first that people actually want, but by the time it's down to the final candidates, people end up voting against what they think are the 'lesser of two evils'.
"Populist Republican" is an oxymoron. We need POPULIST candidates. "Populist" isn't a party. A populist swears to uphold the true consensus of the majority of people. We were conned into believing that the majority race or majority gender are always against all other races (or opposite sex). That's just NONSENSE.
If you're going to vote at all, it's time for all ALL Americans citizens regardless of race, income or religion to forget about the Democrats, Republicans, Libertarians, Greens. Political parties are an ancient racket designed to trick you. ANY CANDIDATE THAT BELONGS TO A POLITICAL PARTY CANNOT REPRESENT THE COMMONWEAL. They must represent the pack. (why do you think they came up with the acronym 'political action committee' = PAC. You would think AIPAC is the most powerful PAC, but it's just one of many, who all work in unison to buy the United States government from President all the way down to your city council.
Here's the key - PACs back ALL OF THE ABOVE PARTIES. So it doesn't matter if you vote Democrat or Republican. That's like voting on what color tires you put on your car.
If you want a viable democracy, push for national referendums for issues like 'gay marriage' and watch such "national issues" disappear. Because the majority of Americans of ALL races and religions don't want want it.
Don't think in terms of race, think in terms of State and national CONSENSUS. We need to work on getting what all agree on, 'cause right now, all of us are the mercy of the political party gangs.

One of the definitions of insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly expecting different results.
The American people have been voting for 225 years and here we are. Obviously voting is not a solution., but voting is a great scam to make people believe that they have a voice in what those that rule them do. Clue: The owners of the USA are not on the ballot.
People talk about going back to the Constitution. How do they think we got here? We started with the Constitution after abandoning a government under the Articles of Confederation that was not conducive to bankster control. The thirteen sovereign Nations under the Articles of Confederation gave up their sovereignty to become subservient States under the Constitution of a central government with the power to determine money. He would determines the money, rules which is why the Constitution was obviously the banksters’ idea. Proof is the creation of the First Bank of the United States in 1792 along with the NY Stock Market that same year to trade debt instruments commonly known as stocks. All banks created money from debt a long time before the Federal Reserve in 1912. That’s what banks have always done.
The banksters like centralized representative government, they refer to them as “talkies†in the Protocols, because they can be usury thieves without the majority of the populace throwing them out. Kings, Queens, dictators, etc. have repeatedly tossed out the usurers for hundreds of years once their thievery was recognized.
Whether white, black, brown, or green, all voters have been lied to about what the government of the USA really is. It is a banksters paradise, not the land of the “free†as the brain washers want us to believe. There can be no liberty as long as there are banks and you cannot vote them out of existence. Thieves only understand force.
Mr. MacDonald’s article is about as relevant to our reality here as the atmosphere on Mars.
