George
W. Bush might end up being the last Republican president of the United
States — and if this is the case, LGBT Americans are at least partly
responsible.
That's
the conclusion reached by conservative media producer and writer Myra
Adams, who first dealt with this subject in the months immediately
before the 2012 presidential election and has revisited the issue in a
recent Daily Beast article.
Among
the reasons Adams lists for her concern about the future of her party
is that the U.S. has "a culture where non-traditional social and sexual
behavior has become mainstream," while the GOP "is growing increasingly
white, old Southern, and male, which alienates ... gays" and other
minorities. In other words, the influence of LGBT people and their
societal acceptance and inclusion figure prominently in Adams's theory
of why the Republican Party may be doomed.
Adams
also cites "a mainstream media that is overwhelmingly comprised of
journalists [who] are biased towards Democrats and liberal causes," "an
education system controlled by liberals that churns out liberals," and
"the influence of Hollywood," which makes being liberal "cool."
Adams
further speculates that Hispanic voters will determine the outcome of
the 2016 presidential election. Saying the Democratic Party has used
"aggressive" tactics to register Hispanic voters, she posits that Texas
and other purple or red states might turn blue as a result of Hispanics
voting Democratic by widening margins.
She concludes that if Texas turns blue, the result will be that "George W. Bush WAS the last Republican president."
