The “gangsta” pics you are referring to are a mixed bag. The most thuggish looking images of Trayvon were actually found to be those of a DIFFERENT man of the same name. Although Twitchy, the source responsible for disclosing this image, redacted the story, the association has spread like wildfire among white supremacist circles, such as Stormfront.  Yes, even people such as you and I have a tendency to cling to hollow rumor so long as it confirms our case. What we DO know about Trayvon Martin is that his behavior was not at all atypical of a teenager his age. I believe we can agree that the case was heavily editorialized, but the story was relayed to the nation because it could sell articles and improve TV ratings. 
On the issue of the election, the vast majority of non-independents tend to vote along party lines.  Even among the independents of this country, a large amount of the individuals still vote along still-existent party affiliations (many Tea Party  activists identify as independent, but are a solid voting  bloc for the GOP.) Unless a candidate has a convincing reason to receive the average American’s vote,  party affiliation is going to outweigh anything else. Romney’s attempts at associating with black voters were abortive to say the least, and, ever since the GOP’s acquisition of the pragmatically racist southern Democrats during the late  60s and the 70s, black voters on average have seen little to support in the Republican party. Romney attempted to persuade women and Minorities by pointing to the economy as an overarching issue that outweighed every other position of the party line, but such arguments do not stick with the American public. 

Single moms?  There are more unwed mothers collectively in the inner cities of blue states by a whopping margin.  We get the ability and understanding to respect life while you kill babies and then give more protection to eagle’s eggs than that of your own species.  We get Scott Walker and Marco Rubio while you get Nancy Pelosi and Barbara Boxer.  We get Hilldale College (fully private funding) while you get pink lady endorsed Cal Berkley which hates and protests our military daily.

You see liberal, you thought you were being clever but you just were reaching for credibility and fell on your collective liberal, socialist arse.  Us Conservatives built this country and will gladly take it back as the apathy is wearing off since this is the best punch the liberal mob could dish out.  You do not want to be apart of the butt whooping you are about to receive once America swells up and takes back the Constitution and it founding father’s wishes. 

California…hahahahaha!  They cannot even supply and PAY for their own power without borrowing from other states.  The states with the most rolling blackouts are blue states and the vast amount of production in all facets of industry are all red states.  Texas is the only state that can completely function independent of the federal government as we supply our own energy, infrastructure, agriculture and our GDP is larger in net than California.  The outflow of taxes is more than the subsidies it receives thus secession would be easy and EVERYONE would move here as you can already see from California losing hundreds of thousands of its skilled workers to Texas alone.  I know…I am from the Bay Area to where they are losing revenue.  These are all facts and your little anecdotes can do or say nothing to the contrary! 

If they think running and staying true to our Founding Principles is a losing issue, what do these people plan on doing with the power they seek?
I pray people wake up and see these wolves in sheep’s clothing for who they really are then stop voting for them. Only then can we start moving forward on the road to real prosperity and restore the American Dream. Until then we will only keep sinking further into moral decay by listening to those people who tell us to abandon the Pillars of Liberty at every crossroads we come to.

“Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor Liberty to purchase power.” Benjamin Franklin
“[N]either the wisest constitution nor the wisest laws
will secure the liberty and happiness of a people whose manners are
universally corrupt. He therefore is the truest friend of the liberty
of his country who tries most to promote its virtue, and who, so far as
his power and influence extend, will not suffer a man to be chosen onto
any office of power and trust who is not a wise and virtuous man.”Samuel Adams
