I am a White American male Vietnam veteran and the Democratic Party has never lost me. It is not likely to lose me in the future. The Republican Party has never offered me anything useful except great entertainment from their lunatic racist religious fanatic fringe. Their core of financiers, religious bigots, billionaire elitists have always impressed me a group of selfish monomaniacs that not only offer me nothing but take from me due to their monopoly pricing of energy and control (Forever War foreign policy) of the government.
"But it's hard: Issues like civil rights, anti-Communism, feminism, and especially gun control have alienated white men from the Democratic Party for generations."

I really do pity people that thrive on hatred of their fellow Americans who don't think in lockstep like they do. Tyrants find these kind of people as useful idiots in conducting mass purges in other countries
You must pity yourself then, as it is crystal clear that you hate your fellow Americans who happen to be conservative, or who don't subscribe to your extremist left wing views.
And yeah, Obama has an army of useful idiots and sycophants that hate conservatives and those who disagree with left wing extremism.
Thankfully the far right wing is a relatively small, aging group of people because a Hitler type person could easily manipulate them into thinking it is a good idea to purge the country of anyone that doesn't believe their ideologies.
You are aware that Hitler was a Leftist...right?
Furthermore the leftist of the Democrat party are losing youth in record numbers..
Really we are the ones who want to "purge" the nation of everyone who doesn't not want to believe the same thing? Does flooding this nation with Millions of Leftist entitlement voters via mass legal and illegal immigration ring a bell? Of course not, right?
That may be the easiest way to get them back, but isn't going to happen. Because it's even easier to get votes by simply telling lies of their own. To get those people back they'd have to actually compete on the issues. It's easier to simply pander to your base with fearmongering about racists.
The people who tend to vote for Republicans are whites, men, and married women. The groups the Democrats don't pander towards. It's a pretty telling statistic in that the Democrats lose on the actual issues. The way they get votes is by using identity politics. And you see it here on CD forums too, where the liberals' responses are usually ad hominem attacks of various sorts rather than actual positions on issues, including the post I responded to.
Tat and after the failed War On Poverty they have to hide their failures or blame them on people who had less then nothing to do with them..
50 years of failed polices(Neo Con right include, difference side of the same statist coin)
They have to use race, class, and gender and then created false issues and create tension in order to take advantage of the the crisis.

Well I am sure you want to think Hitler was a "leftist" but that is untrue.
Also I love this whole "Democrats are losing youth in record numbers." I will ask you this, where do you think those young voters are going?
So you far right wingers are completely okay with having people that have a different opinion than you being a part of this country which includes making policy decisions you might not agree with?
