The results from the November 6, 2012 presidential election in America that showed exactly how the Americans from different races, socioeconomic status, age groups and geographical locations voted may be the perfect data that can be used to answer the key question that is raised from the above named subject matter. The GOP as a major national party in America was rejected by the following voting blocs:(i). 93% of the African-American voters. (ii) 73% of the Asian-American voters. (iii). 71% of the Latino-American voters. (iv). 60% of young American voters between the ages of 18-29 and (v) 54% of female voters. A further breakdown of this presidential election results showed that the Democratic Party won 5 million votes more than the GOP from all Americans that are below 30 years of age. A recent study that was done by the group known as the College Republican National Committee that was titled as "Grand Old Party for A Brand New Generation" showed the major reasons why millions of young Americans rejected the GOP and its political agendas. These young Americans between the ages of 19 and 30 years of age described the GOP as racist, lacking in diversity, closed-minded and old-fashioned.
If these political trends that are at the moment working against the GOP go on unabated. Then the most important question to be asked will be directly related or connected to the true political future of the GOP whether it will remain a very viable national political party in America in the nearest future or not. At the present moment, the three different political ideological groups within the GOP are at full war internally against each other by attempting to control the life and the direction of this political organ, but all of them have one common political enemy which is the presidency of Barack Obama. The GOP internally is fractured by the Tea Party ideologues, the establishment group and the Christian religious rights. Today in 2013, the GOP as a major national political party is no longer policy-oriented in nature, its true leaders are the conservative radio and television talk show hosts, bloggers and columnists and its own public elected officials at the United States Congress are simply yes-men in the hands of these news media political jokers, clowns and carnival barkers who are the true leaders of the Republican Party of America today in America in all truth, honesty and reality.
The presidential election results of 2012 showed that the Republican Party of America or the GOP is moving gradually toward a regional, a southern and most likely an old white men and women only party. With this political development, the GOP may never win the White House again in our lifetime if the party continues on their current retrogressive political path and the highly divisive political ideologies that are not nationally popular or accepted in America of today and mostly likely in the future America to come. The current electoral data from the 2012 presidential demographics in America showed clearly that no political party again in America can win the White House with the white-only votes easily. Furthermore, no political party can win the White House again without winning the substantial and significant votes of the Latino-Americans, the young Americans, the young women and the African-Americans. The rapidly growing Latino-American population in the states of Texas, Georgia and Arizona may likely turn those states in the 2016 or 2020 presidential elections from their stable traditional red states for the GOP into the battle ground states.
The 21st century American politics is now bigger for the first time in our lifetime more than the political vision of our forefathers over 200 years ago. The politics of race and religious bigotry are no longer the true political answers to political victory in American again. You cannot also lie or deceive American voters and manipulate your way to power easily without openness, truthfulness, honesty and integrity. The politics of money-power, negative television and radio adverts failed to win the votes of most Americans for the GOP presidential candidate, Mitt Romney last November. Finally, the American 2012 presidential demographics and the electoral map both reflected the rapidly changing voting patterns that reflect the 21st century American nation that is now more diverse and no longer monolithic in nature.
