Re: 2016 Presidential Race
In 2008 and 2012 those "blue collar, racist, uneducated white men" are the same ones that turned the state of WI, MI, OH and PA Blue for Obama. Yet now they are dumb? Now they are racist? Now they are idiots? They call them swing states for a reason. It is the litmus test of Americans that do not vote for a particular party but are willing to vote on who they feel will best help them. Obama promised them their jobs back, their houses, a better future. Their recovery. And after elected ignore them. Hillary in their eyes was just "business as usual" which these families couldn't sacrifice another 4 yrs. This is not some white male conspiracy theory, the color working people care about is green. It feeds their families. We live on the east coast, especially to my MD friends, it is a "pampered" state. Especially in DC where the recession didn't hit very hard because of the government jobs. Yes we were all effected but not nearly as bad as some states. Projecting how you live vs the pain that some areas of the country are going through is irresponsible. Those people have been saying it for 4 yrs, rising health care costs, jobs being shipped over seas. Stagnant wages. Rising costs of living and they were ignored. They weren't kidding. And to call them stupid is disgusting. Is it stupid for a man or women to want to change their situation to better their family and to believe in that for them to vote? I would take a look at what some of you are posting today and maybe point the finger at your self for the division of this country. These men and women in those states that turned Red didn't vote because of Trumps Rhetoric, or hate. They were voting for their families. That is love not hate. Do not get that confused. I have never seen arrogance and elitist talk like this being spouted from the mouths of the left. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Re: 2016 Presidential Race
And the thing I want to ask liberals is if they would have voted for Sarah Palin over Obama. If not, does that make them misogynists? Would they have voted Ben Carson over Bernie Sanders? If not, does that make them racists?
Right now some vocal liberals are screaming that everybody who didn't vote for Hillary is a misogynistic racist. But here's the thing; I didn't vote for Bill Clinton, Al Gore, John Kerry, Obama, or Hillary Clinton. That's three white boys I didn't vote for. Why didn't I vote for them? Same reason I didn't vote for Obama or Hillary. I disagree with their positions on nearly every aspect of government. Democrats are terrible for the economy and always have been. Bill Clinton pulled some deeply stupid shit twenty years ago and we're still suffering from it.
But here's the thing we need to figure out. Why do liberals always turn to the race/women/lgbt card when people don't vote for them? It's because they simply cannot point out any actual reasons someone should. This year it was "Hillary is a woman! Vote for her or you hate women!" With Obama it was "Vote Obama or you're in the KKK!" Yet Hillary's entire campaign rested on her not being Trump. Literally that is all she ran on after thirty years in politics. Now Trump didn't have great answers when asked about his platform, instead running on "Change"! Which, after eight years of a stagnant economy and considering how deeply unpopular his opponent was, was plenty to win with. Obama first ran on the fact he's black. Yes, that is what he ran on and he beat Hillary with it. She's not even popular among democrats yet they trotted her out, twice. This year they even rigged the primaries to make sure she won because Bernie Sanders, a socialist, was beating her. And then all of a sudden people are surprised she lost the presidential election?
But I didn't vote for her because I'm whateverphobic."A moron, a rapist, and a Pittsburgh Steeler walk into a bar. He sits down and says, “Hi I’m Ben may I have a drink please?”
