People and groups who shouldn't vote Republican


Herewith, a list of people who, given the Republican Party's stated, formal platform, absolutely should not vote Republican:

--Women

Does Todd Akin mean anything to you? How about women's reproductive rights? How about equal pay for women? They're against all that.

--Blacks/African-Americans

These are the people who have publicly tried to do away with both the Civil Rights Act ("We don't need it any more") and affirmative action ("We never needed it).

--Gays

Please. They virtually hate gays and legislate and vote accordingly and repeatedly.

--Union and/or Labor supporters

They vote against every union-supporting measure that comes up, as we all know.

--Anyone from the middle-class

They've been gutting and helping to gut the middle-class for decades, since Ronald Reagan, at least, in spite of what they tell everyone otherwise.

--Likewise from the lower-classes

Ditto, here. (See "Anyone from the middle-class", above). Also, check their lack of support for welfare, Head Start programs and financing, etc., etc.

--Working-class Americans

This ties in with not supporting measures for Unions, the middle class and lower-classes. It all goes hand in hand.

If all these groups, above, vote Democratic this November, as they should, the Romney/Ryan ticket hasn't got a chance.

Here's hoping.
