What republicans need to do is focus on how blacks (and Hispanics, and for that matter poor whites) will do BETTER under their proposals. Jack Kemp did this, but I'm not aware of many other republicans who have. i don't see what is wrong with some Ross Perot PowerPoints saying, "Here is your life under democrat proposals. Now, here is your life under republican proposals. You are $X better off under republicans." Not everybody will be better off under republican proposals. But a lot of reliable democrat voters will be. And if republicans can make significant inroads there, they will prevent us from falling under the collectivist/redistributionist democrats.

"XYZ is getting ready to build a new factory. Here is your life if they build it in Germany because of cheaper taxes, and you keep working at Walmart for $10/hour. Here is your life if they built it here because of cheaper taxes, and here is your life if they hire you for $20/hour." That isn't difficult to present, and it isn't difficult to explain.

Bismarck health care, a guaranteed basic income, paid for with lower and flatter and broader taxes, including a consumption tax. The poor are better taken care of, and the "rich" get a better ROI for investing here rather than there. Why doesn't that happen?

Democrats are more interested in making the rich poorer than in making the poor richer. Republicans have ways to make the poor richer, but they don't go there. Why not?
