Is it really that bad in the south? I’ve been to Texas once, and Florida once, and that’s about it for my adventures in the southern states. They were both big cities though and don’t really represent the whole state as far as political views.
Depends on where but in the rural areas, where the Southern vote is decided, it is 100% about cultural issues. God, guns, gays, and abortion carry those states.
Southern states that are seeing economic growth in urban areas alongside decline in the rural areas are ones that have potential to go blue sometime in the future.
Sanders and Warren are a close 2nd to Biden in the polls, and both would easily beat Trump in the obvious places: the west coast, most of the northeast, CO, NV, and NM, much of the Upper Midwest, and probably a few surprise states as well. Can these candidates actually win a Southern state though besides maybe North Carolina and Virginia?
Not sure.
Personally, I feel like the right message would work in Alabama, but it all depends on if people just hate the letter beside their name.
Sure, states shift political allegiances all the time. Look at Virginia and West Virginia as recent examples.
The problem with this particular scenario, Southern states voting Democrat, is that the current Democrat Party is downright hostile to those places and the people who live in them. Present day left wing doctrine sneers at religion, rural voters, and things like gun ownership, all of which are ingrained in the culture of most Southern states.
Even so, if the Democrats succeed in their plan of changing the demographics of the country by importing millions of no or low skill foreigners through an open border, then there's no state they won't be able to win by buying votes through the welfare state.
A) Would he/she be Loud, over the top, speaking his mind without editing, calling people names, constantly drawing attention to himself/herself?
... or
B) would he/she be nice, gentle, politically correct, promising peace, playing the "good" guy/gal part?
You know.... but you can say it, can you.
