Hi All! Here is some very timely, interesting info to be aware of. Without me re-hashing their overview info, here are the details that were provided to me: This new report, authored by NDN Fellows Morley Winograd and Mike Hais and based on a 2,500-person poll, takes an in-depth look at how America’s population is changing and how the two political parties are responding to these changes. America is going though profound demographic change. Its population is moving to the South and West. New groups – particularly Hispanics and the largest generation in American history, Millennials (aka Gen Y) – have emerged. Large waves of immigration have helped put America on a path to become a majority minority nation by the mid century. This new American Electorate of the 21st Century is creating a “new politics” in America, forcing both the Democratic and Republican Parties to forge new political coalitions and new electoral maps very different from the ones they built, ran on and governed with in the 20th century. This new report takes an in-depth look at how America’s population is changing, and how the two political parties are responding to these changes. Critically acclaimed authors and NDN Fellows Mike Hais and Morley Winograd present the findings of a new major market research project designed to help policy makers and political leader better understand these changes and how they might impact the 2010 and future elections, for both parties. At the core of this new presentation will be the findings of a just completed new 2,500 person national survey, whose large sample size will allow effective comparisons across generations and groups. The presentation and report will take a special look at one of the big questions in American politics today – Can the new Obama Coalition become the new Democratic Coalition
