DYSFUNCTION is the Democrats New Life Blood

In almost every area of American life, the better things are, the worse it is for the Democratic Party. And vice versa.
Marriage.Even today, after decades of feminism, most Americans agree that it is better for women and men — and society — when women and men marry. Yet when women marry, it is bad for the Democratic Party; and when women do not marry, even after — or shall we say, especially after — having children, it is quite wonderful for the Democratic Party.
Married women vote Republican. Unmarried women lopsidedly vote Democrat. It is both silly and dishonest to deny that it is in the Democrats' interest that women not marry.
Blacks. Blacks who are not angry at America, especially white America, are more likely than those who harbor such anger to vote Republican. The more a black considers America a racist society, the more he or she is a guaranteed Democratic voter.
Therefore it is in the Democratic Party's interest to ensure that as many blacks as possible regard America negatively. If Democrats feel it will benefit their party, they will play with fire — the fire of violence.
Take Ferguson, Mo. No Democrat or Republican knows what happened there just before a black teenager was shot by a white policeman. The only thing almost any American knows about Ferguson is a white police officer shot and killed a black teenager.
Yet, while blacks in Ferguson demonstrated, some violently, the reaction of Democrats — both politicians and the mainstream left-wing media — has been to side with the demonstrators.
There does not appear to be any level of black anger at white America that is too much for Democrats, who would rather see riots, no matter how unwarranted, than lose black votes.
Latinos. The more a Latino assimilates into American society, the more likely he or she is to vote Republican. On the other hand, the more Latinos continue to identify with the country they or their parents fled, the more likely they are to vote Democrat.
Thus, Democrats and the rest of the Left have engaged in two massive undertakings for decades: One has been to label Republicans "nativist," "anti-Hispanic," "xenophobic" and "anti-immigrant." The other has been to promote "multiculturalism," the anti-assimilation doctrine that cultivates ethnic identity over American identity.
