Entire article can read at http://www.washingtontimes.com/apps/...111230087/1002 Democrats like to define themselves as the party of poor and middle-income Americans, but a new study says they now represent the majority of the nation's wealthiest congressional districts. In a state-by-state, district-by-district comparison of wealth concentrations based on Internal Revenue Service income data, Michael Franc, vice president of government relations at the Heritage Foundation, found that the majority of the nation's wealthiest congressional jurisdictions were represented by Democrats. He also found that more than half of the wealthiest households were concentrated in the 18 states where Democrats hold both Senate seats. "If you take the wealthiest one-third of the 435 congressional districts, we found that the Democrats represent about 58 percent of those jurisdictions," Mr. Franc said. A key measure of each district's wealth was the number of single-filer taxpayers earning more than $100,000 a year and married couples filing jointly who earn more than $200,000 annually, he said. It is also the party of bigots/racists and the intolerant. If one looks at Super Tuesday D voting results many are in the NE area of the country and not in the southern States as usually stereotyped. Did you read Harry's comment about Obama being a credit to his race? and someone that young blacks can use for a role model? While Obama got a lot of black votes, he also got more votes from white males than Hillary, and more votes from females under the age of 65 than Hillary. And next Tuesday, he's going to get two from retired, whites over the age of 55. Wise move. |
