Democratic Strategist Bob Beckel said when asked what he would like to change in the Democratic party said that Latino's and African American tend to vote republican as they become more educated move up the economical ladder. He would like to find a way to retain them in the party after they move forward.
What does this say to you?

That educated people tend to vote Republican because they can see that the farce known as the Democratic Party has no valid ideas and no answers for any of the questions that face us as a Nation. Being that Bob is a Born Again Christian, I'm surprised that the Democrankies allow him to remain in the Party.

Beckel is an asshole. Some minorites do vote Republican as they go up the ladder but more vote democratic.

No, most Latinos and African Americans vote democrat.
True, as anyone else, as they educate themselves, they do move up the ladder. At that level, you find very, very few succesful Latinos, although there are more succesful African Americans.
Far scarcer are the numbers of single mom Latinas that moved up the ladder...

Republicans tend to study issues more & accept media spins less. The reporter this week (I have forgotten his name - but heard interview) slipped & said the main stream media were not able to decide when information came out because blogs were breaking stories first. My question, why were reporters ever able to decide when imformation is to released?
Stats do not lie, so it can not be racist, easily checked through records.

it sayd that the more educated a person is the less they feel the need for goverbment dependance as they become more self reliant. it also sounds like the democrats are trying to find a new way to supress the rights of minorities.

So, Latino's and African American's vote like everyone else, based on their pocketbook?
Isn't it a good thing when people become rich and educated?
The problem isn't people becoming rich and educated and voting Republicans, its the failed Republican Leadership of Bush/Rumsfeild/Cheney./Hastert

It means that affluence breeds political snobbery.
'I have money, so I am better than the rest' = Republican mindset.
Frankly, the Democratic Party doesn't need people like that.

Both parties want to increase membership.
Nothing wrong with new members, as long as they aren't taken for granted.

it says maybe the liberals should become more educated instead of wanting to tell everyone how they should live
