K:

My predition tally was way off, and after reading your posts, it was obvious you and I have different views of America. But you shown a European/World view of America that many Americans, like myself, have failed to recognize, that there is a changing demography that is influencing elections.

I could go into a thesis of why Obama won, some of which you have touched on. My regret is that I believed America was on a steady course to a revitalization of understanding the benefits of a Constitution that acts as a solid blueprint for dealing with any demography, because its framework is based on basic principles (individual freedom and small central government) and dealing with the frailties of human nature (incorporation of branches of government with checks and balance of power).

I regret the rise of popularism to prop up an incumbency, but to your point, the opposing party cannot win without support of Hispanics, and other demographics that are growing.

My vision for the future of America is that the Constitution will not become obsolete HOWEVER, it is difficult to oppose a central federal government that provides stuff for a larger portion of the American electorate.

Again, K you may be boisterous in your expression, but as I have learned throughout my life, times like these are very revealing, and cannot be dismissed by all the talking heads, irregardless of which side of the vote we chose.
