Where Democrats can find the diversity they seek: The GOP



Today’s Democratic base is famed for prizing diversity; of sexual orientation, of ethnicity, and especially, of race. Yet those same self-professed liberals have grown increasingly hostile to intellectual and ideological diversity: Witness the resurgence of political correctness on places like college campuses, and the complementary increasing hostility to free speech. Yet the three Democratic candidates for presidents are all straight, old, and white: three epithets, in the mind of many bien pensant liberals. The Democrats may have diversity, just not the kind that the base cares about, or even wants. Horror of horrors, they have to look to the GOP for that.
