was reading the gop 2012 post mortem report, some good stuff on hispanics that is sure to gain votes this time around

recommendation 3 in particular is worth noting

Quote:
Recommendations:

1. The RNC should hire Hispanic communications directors and political directors for key states and communities across the country.

2. On issues like immigration, the RNC needs to carefully craft a tone that takes into consideration the unique perspective of the Hispanic community. Message development is critical to Hispanic voters.

3. The Republican Party is one of tolerance and respect, and we need to ensure that the tone of our message is always reflective of these core principles. In the modern media environment a poorly phrased argument or out-of-context statement can spiral out of control and reflect poorly on the Party as a whole. Thus we must emphasize during candidate trainings, retreats, etc., the importance of a welcoming, inclusive message in particular when discussing issues that relate directly to a minority group.

4. The RNC should hire field staff within Hispanic communities nationally to build meaningful relationships. This cannot happen every four years but needs to be a continuous effort.

5. Promote forward-looking positive policy proposals to Hispanic communities that unite voters, such as the Republican Party’s support for school choice.

6. The RNC must rebuild a nationwide database of Hispanic leaders.

7. The RNC must improve on promoting Hispanic staff and candidates within the Party. The GOP has substantial Hispanic elected officials at all levels, and we need to ensure they are being used as surrogates both in their communities and with the national media. At the staff level, the personnel should be visible and involved in senior political and budget decisions and not be limited to demographic outreach.

8. Engage the Hispanic faith-based community in our efforts.

9. The RNC must rebuild a Hispanic surrogate list to promote a high-level presence in both Hispanic and mainstream media.

10.Establish swearing-in citizenship teams to introduce new citizens after naturalization ceremonies to the Republican Party.

11.Consider how to help demographic ally groups flourish and sustain traditional partners under auspices of the RNC.

12.The RNC should encourage individuals to participate in cultural organizations so that these organizations’ leadership is no longer dominated by Democrat-leaning individuals.

13.The RNC must invest financial resources in Hispanic media. In a $1 billion campaign, much less than 1 percent of the total budget was spent on Hispanic or other demographic group oriented media. At one point during the 2012 campaign, OFA was outspending us 8 to 1 in these media markets. If we are going to attract these groups to our Party and candidates, our budgets, and expenses need to reflect this importance.

14.Develop an extensive network of Hispanic and other demographic groups’ political operatives that can help provide continuity for Republican political candidates around the country.

15.The RNC and State Parties should make every effort to feature and use diverse committee members.
can see drumpf implementing recommendation 6 although perhaps not for the original intended purpose. half marks tho.

lol comments on judge were misconstrued

Quote:
"I don't care if the judge is Mexican or not," Trump told O'Reilly. "All I want him to do is give me a fair shake."
So why mention he's Mexican at all you moron

Bernie apparently trying to convince the super delegates that he's got a much better shot against Trump and **** her at the convention. Would be the best moment in human history most likely. Will obv never happen.

Though really of the SD are supposed to do what's best for the party they might. Sanders will beat Trump and Hillary really might not.

Also she wore a 13k dollar Armani suit to a speech about the income inequality gap.

Honestly Trump's response to a similar situation would be perfect. "It is rigged. But I don't care anymore. Because I won."

This guy quoted the Wire? Holy **** what a boss

Arizona Republican Sen. Jeff Flake says his party's presumptive nominee cannot win the general election. "Let's face it: meet the old Trump, just like the new Trump," Flake said to reporters on Capitol Hill in the Senate hallway. "We've got what we've got. That's not somebody who can win the White House."

He's said the USA can't default because we can just print money.

“The United States is a country that has its own currency--can’t run out of cash because we print the money. If you even try to think what would happen--suppose that investors get down on the United States. Even so, that would weaken the dollar, not send interest rates soaring, and that would be good. That would help our exports,” Trump said on C-SPAN’s “Newsmakers.”

Only when it comes to surrounding himself with yes-men to inflate his ego.

No and it's dumb because he'd not want to reduce inflation anyway. He loves debt and printing money is great for people who love debt.
