What is it in minority culture .....
that leads most of them to reject self-reliance and buy into the idea that they are owed government benefits? Apparently a majority of women feel the same way.

As a white male, this concept seems alien and anti-American to me. I'm trying to understand this because it appears more than 50% of America has a different view of the citizen-government relationship than I do. It's like I'm a foreigner in my own country.

Liberals sell them that mentality in exchange for their vote. It's that simple.

RE: What is it in minority culture .....
Well to think that you basically say that every minority that votes Democrat doesn't work and is on some sort of government assistance. If it's your perception, it's your reality but there are many, many successful minorities who would refuse to vote R. I think the main motivation for anybody to vote for anyone is absolute hate for the other guy's party.

My family was a Reagan family and they absolutely hate Republicans now because the Rs constantly claim Reagan as their leadership model, just as long as they can revise his legacy.

First of all I am going to go out on a limb and say that there is probably not a culture called minority. That just seems kind of obvious to me.

Secondly, I am pretty sure that whites get many more government benefits than all the minorities combined. Stuff like government backed mortgages, small business loans, welfare, guaranteed student loans, etc. It seems like every group gets those benefits and white people get more than any group.

Finally, that concept is not alien to you if you purchased a home with no or low money down, where the government guaranteed your loan.

But how many programs do you see specifically for whites? And if what you said is true, it would largely be because there is a higher percentage of whites to utilize those programs.

Welfare. That program was not created for minorities, it was created for White people. Minorities could not even participate in that program until the 60's. That program has been around since at least the 1930's.

Secondly, the largest group to participate in any government program is going to be white.

Maybe it's all the white males with inflated opinions of themselves that inspires non-white males to vote for anyone but the Republicans.

Obama's primary goal is to increase government largesse. Everyone knows that. So based on the exit polls, we know that most (not all) white males reject dependency on government. And most (not all) minorities and women have no problem with increasing the cradle-to-grave, nanny state.

Why is that?

Maybe minorities vote for the party that doesn't assume that they are all on welfare.

Where do you get this stuff from? You are pulling stuff out of your rectum and trying to call them facts.

You'd have to ask every section and subsection of every type of minority for that answer. Different reasons abound I guess.

Because if you can operate your own business I would expect you to be able to recognize sarcasm.

What a pretentious, garbage post by the OP. To be honest, my family and friends (who are non christian minorites) do not vote GOP because that fringe evangelical portion of the GOP scares them, they are quite frankly very conservative otherwise.

On this board, that post does not come off as sarcastic unfortunately.
