Title: RE: [recoznet2] Old white men vote in George Bush Cool, thanks for that. I'm amazed they know who, by ethnicity, is voting. Do we do that in Australia or do they just go by the census figures? kc -Original Message-From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Rod HagenSent: Sunday, 12 November 2000 10:07 AMTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Subject: RE: [recoznet2] Old white men vote in George Bush Rod, Where did you actually get these figures from?? kc CNN exit polls Cheers Rod -- Rod Hagen[EMAIL PROTECTED]Hurstbridge, Victoria, AustraliaWWW http://www.netspace.net.au/~rodhagen

These
figures do not indicate racism.
How do
you think it shows racism??
Just
because a certain percentage of 'white' people vote for Bush does not mean it is
based on racism. Pehaps it's because they are Pro-Lifers or just old fogies who
hate change in Government and like Bush's daddy when he ran the country years
ago.
So
from what you are saying - Does this mean that African-Americans are racist
because 90% voted for Gore!?!?
People
making something out of these figures are turning it into a race issue, not the
voters.

Veryenlightening figures, Rod.
On the huge disparity between the white male vote
and the vote of non-white Americans, racism among American white males
apppears to be the issue that basically decides elections in the
U.S.
Australia has a habit of trailing along behind
America in all thingsforget the economics, race is the issue of the
future-Howard is on the right track to remain in power and continue his
racist policies if he is not seriously challenged on the issue.
This Howard approach of saying " don't bring race
into it " works in the favour of those covertly promoting racism in the
communityrace has hardly been mentioned as an issue in the American
election, yet look at the figures---it is there alright.
The only way to prevent racismdeciding the
election in Australia is to attack racist statements andthose who
make them, not back away in fear of creating a political "backlash" from
racists the 'backlash" is already there and must be discredited, not
ignored.

There is also little doubt that

presidency. (sorry if the figures don't come out in the right columns on
