With all of the talk about American politics right now, I've noticed something that really annoys me.
I repeatedly hear commentators say:
"Oh [such and such] will appeal to the Latino vote."
"Oh [such and such] will appeal to the Women vote."
"Oh [such and such] will appeal to the Black vote."
"Oh [such and such] will appeal to the Jewish vote."
"Oh, [such and such] will appeal to the Young vote."
So does that mean only the older, white male population of America will be voting for a President without personal bias??
Those that are willing to pigeon hole minority groups like this, I believe, insult the intelligence of humans and challenge the true nature of democracy.
Right.
I'm done.
