Barack Obama’s immigration policy is having unattended consequences for the Democratic Party. Veteran politicians are being replaced by people who consider them outsiders. These lifers thought they could pander to this new group. But how do you appeal to a people who have as much contempt for traditional America as a Democrat, particularly if you don’t belong to their tribe.
Rep.
Phyllis Kahn, a 22-term congresswoman, and Rep. Joe Mullery, a 10-term
congressman, both from Minneapolis, lost their primary races to immigrants
jumping into politics for the first time who received huge backing from their
racial and ethnic groups, reports Breitbart.
Phyllis Kahn actually lost her race to
two Somalis – Ilhan Omar (the winner) and Mohamud Noor (runner-up.) The primary
voter turnout was up by almost 40 percent over 2014.
Omar credited her win to immigrant
Somalis, and posted a statement on her website: “I am so proud that the
majority of contributions to my campaign are from members of the Somali
community who believe in my leadership.” Financial contributions
flowed in from Somalis in other states who supported her as well.
The Democratic Party’s VP pick, Tim
Kane, let the cat out of the bag when he openly stated that white America has
to be replaced with minorities in order to make the country more
equitable. But for now, they’re content
in replacing other minorities with immigrants who have as much contempt for
American values as they do.
