POPSDaddy's Little Helper Dr. Reef Karim, director of psychiatric services at Wonderland Center in LA is seeing more and more parents who, as he puts it, "are using in their thirties and forties and don't want to give up that lifestyle." Statistics show drug use creeping into demographics that previously might have just downed a martini or three after work.

POPSObama’s Weakness With Voters: Democrats Problem With White Voters
has become the hot topic among many who say racial bias explains it. Of course it would be naive to believe that race is not a factor in America today. But that doesn’t necessarily mean Mr. Obama’s relative weakness among white voters is solely, or even mainly, due to the fact that he is black and that three quarters of voters this year will be white. In 1991, when I wrote a book about how the Democrats were failing to deal with their white voter problem, I ran into a number of editors who wanted to know why anyone would care — and not too subtly wondered whether looking at the reasons for their disaffection might be too politically touchy. White voters, as a group, are more likely to favor a limited role for government here at home and a more aggressive posture overseas. In general, polls show Democrats — and a disproportionate share of black voters — favor a smaller, less adventurous military and a larger role for government on the domestic front.

POPSStuff White People Like: Comparing People to Hitler
LOL. If someone were to propose that ethnic Europeans should migrate en masse to Africa, reproduce twice as fast as the native Africans, threatening to eventually reduce Aficans to shrinking minorities in their own lands, insist on maintaining their own European customs and languages, liberals would say, rightly, that this was racism, white supremacism, and a nonviolent form of genocide, and hence a nazi-like proposal. If they were in the least bit fair-minded or consistent in their "thinking," if you can call the mindless, PC hysteria that propels liberal positions on anything relating to race relations "thinking," they'd say the same things about the fact that exactly what I've described is in fact happening, except that the colors are reversed and the Third World is swarming into the entire Western World, with the temporary exception of Israel, though as the demographics of the West change, pressure will inevitably mount on Isreal to adopt the same self-holocausting policies tha

POPSDanger: Demographic Change Approaching But its focus on the developed world sometimes causes it to downplay the serious economic, socio-political, environmental, and security challenges posed by high population growth in developing countries—and by a global population that is expected to top 9 billion by 2050.

POPSThe New Face of Racism: Hilary Clinton Hillary Clinton may well be the youngest living Dixiecrat. Basically, her campaign strategy has come down to this: 1. There are lots of Americans who would vote against a person based on the color of his skin. (I bet you can't guess which color they "aren't quite ready for"!) 2. These people are so important to the Democratic Party that we should on no account offend their delicate sensibilities by fielding an, ehm, colored candidate. 3. By virtue of her being white, she has the key character trait that appeals to the DNC base, which is the ability to pander to the much vaunted "Racist Redneck" demographic. Are her values in line with the Democratic Party? They certainly don't represent me! In fact, I would prefer it if racists didn't vote for the candidate I support. After all, nobody is looking for the David Duke endorsement!

POPSObama NC & IN wins show broad demographic support Check this sampler of demographic wins: Clinton's depiction of his support as narrow is just a last-chance mudball she's trying to stick on him. Ironically, she won among the "elites" - -those making over $100k -- in IN. Things aren't as they seem.

POPSDownside Of Obama Strategy And Hillary's Advantage
Even some Obama advisers see a real problem. "Ultimately, all that matters is how the nominee stacks up against John McCain," said one adviser "Right now, Barack is not connecting with the children of the Reagan Democrats. That's a real concern." Obama rejects the charge that he has failed to reach important segments of the party, noting that he has shown he can crack Clinton's coalition of working-class voters, women and Latinos with his wins in the bellwether state of Missouri, the swing state of Virginia and the Rust Belt redoubt of Wisconsin. He also showed that he can expand the battleground into the coveted Mountain West, with his convincing win in Colorado. "I don't buy into this demographic argument," Obama said. "Missouri, Wisconsin, Virginia -- in many of these states we've won the white vote and the blue-collar vote. "A lot of the states he's winning are states that we're not going to win in November. It's not a strategy that bodes well",said a Clinton supporter.
