re: #440 drcordell

I didn’t posit a reason for nirthing in that post, just the fact that most nirthers appear to be Southern whites. IMHO, nirtherism is just a way of trying to cope with the fact that America is changing. By 2040 America could very possibly be a minority-white nation. This scares the shit out of some people.

Furthermore, this kind of shit is a pretty normal response to a Democrat of any race being elected as President. Remember the 90’s after Clinton was elected? There were certainly a pretty vocal contingent of nuts who were pushing to nullify his Presidency because he didn’t receive a majority of the popular vote. Not to mention the fact that he was literally impeached by the Senate. Some folks just can’t handle losing elections.

You keep saying that about white southerners, but again, in the demographic data provided for that poll, I do not see where they broke out the percentage of whites/non-whites polled IN THE SOUTH. It’s there for the nation as a whole, but I cannot find it for the south.
