Not red enough, TX has and will disenfranchise 100Ks of black and Hispanic voters, as the 5 extremist/activist JINO SCOTUS assholes know very well will be the case in all the VRA/Sec 4 Confederate/racist states.

Eric Holder. That piece of disgusts me.
what's really disgusting, to serious humans, is RickyBobby, his corrupt, oily state, assholes like Gohmert, Barton, Cornyn, Cruz, SBOE, TCEQ, Repug gerrymandering, high poverty rate, lowest K12 education spending, $60M HS football stadiums, etc, etc.
nothing but respect and admiration for Mr. Holder and his views on race and injustice in amerikkka. it was an honor to meet him when he was a guest speaker at my fraternity's conclave.
and i agree with this statement i got from CNN: There are many examples. Early in the Obama administration, Holder said that we are "a nation of cowards" when it comes to issues of race.
So what fraternity do you belong to?
Is logic and reason ever applied when you're constructing your responses or is it all gut all emotion all the time? Honest question.

Does anyone know how many Texas GOP congressional districts that have a non white majority?
TX has some very crazily shaped districts
http://www.govtrack.us/congress/memb...apframe?demo=1
D-35 is my favorite example of "Let's stick all these Metropolitan Brown people in the same district"
And D-21 is my favorite example of "Let's nullify the vote of all these Austin Hippies by combining it with the white part of San Antonio"
Holder, and most people that call for a serious discussion on issues of race do not really want to talk about racial issues because it is uncomfortable. It is never hard to play the victim or to justify self-pity and that is what motivates people to vote and support racial conglomerates.
The Repugs know VERY WELL what there problem is.
"Conclusion
While we cannot predict with certainty exactly what the racial composition of the electorate will be in any given election, we can predict with a high degree of confidence that the nonwhite share of the electorate will continue to grow for many years to come. Given the near inevitability of this demographic trend, a political party that depends almost entirely on the support of white voters will face a more and more difficult task in assembling a winning electoral coalition. Focusing on “missing white voters” ignores this fundamental and irreversible trend."

gerrymandering and extreme voter suppression are the Repugs main hope, and of course slandering with fabricated scandals:
What Year Is It? ‘Stop Hillary PAC’ Invokes Whitewater, Vince Foster In New Attack Ad
Stop Hillary PAC, a political action committee led by right-wing Colorado state senator Ted Harvey — best known for his efforts to allow concealed weapons in schools — warns on its website that “Hillary Clinton is the liberal standard-bearer of the next generation of liberal creep on our Cons utional rights.” Its solution? To “stop Hillary Clinton now, together, before it’s too late. Because in 2016, it will be too late.”
To that end, the PAC has released its first ad — and even by the depressingly low standards of those afflicted with Clinton Derangement Syndrome, it’s pretty far out there.

North Carolina on the Cusp Of Passing the Worst Voter Suppression Bill In the Nation
- Implementing a strict voter ID requirement that bars citizens who don’t have a proper photo ID from casting a ballot.
- Eliminating same-day voter registration, which allowed residents to register at the polls.
- Cutting early voting by a full week.
- Increasing the influence of money in elections by raising the maximum campaign contribution to $5,000 and increasing the limit every two years.
- Making it easier for voter suppression groups like True The Vote to challenge any voterwho they think may be ineligible by requiring that challengers simply be registered in the same county, rather than precinct, of those they challenge.
- Vastly increasing the number of “poll observers” and increasing what they’re permitted to do. In 2012, ThinkProgress caught the Romney campaign training such poll observers using highly misleading information.
- Only permitting citizens to vote in their specific precinct, rather than casting a ballot in any nearby ward or election district. This can lead to widespread confusion, particularly in urban areas where many precincts can often be housed in the same building.
- Barring young adults from pre-registering as 16- and 17-year-olds, which is permitted by current law, and repealing a state directive that high schools conduct voter registration drives in order to boost turnout among young voters.
- Prohibiting some types of paid voter registration drives, which tend to register poor and minority citizens.
- Dismantling three state public financing programs, including the landmark program that funded judicial elections.
- Weakening disclosure requirements for outside spending groups.
- Preventing counties from extending polling hours in the event of long lines or other extraordinary cir stances and making it more difficult for them to accommodate elderly or disabled voters with satellite polling sites at nursing homes, for instance.

People still think voting matters anymore?
How does Obama live with the fact that his attorney general is the man that gave Tim McVeigh the bombing materials for the OKC bombing? And Obama is supposed to be a hardcore commie liberal?
I lost respect for him, when he didn't prosecute the black panther members who were clearly trying scare people at a voting site.
I also don't think it is his job to pick and choose which laws to uphold and which to not go after.
I mean... THEY WERE BLACK... clearly trying to scare people at the voting site.
So a white racist group standing in front with weapons in front of a voting booth is acceptable to you?
Are you calling for the prosecution of the guy who was walking around the Texas Capitol with a rifle during the abortion debate?
"They had clubs AND THEY WERE BLACK"
Everyone but Fox News had acknowledged that the Black Panther Intimidation story was manufactured

Damn brownies should only count as 3/5 a person anyway.
In what way?
