Many like to use the phrase “the soft bigotry of low expectations.” There is nothing soft about the condescension liberals show to those they “protect.” It is a hard and brutal beat down of entire swathes of society and exists to utilize the worst in human nature to maintain Democrat majorities in many states, especially those with large urban poor populations. “The soft bigotry of low expectations” is racist. It doesn’t imply, it screams that minorities are lesser human beings. Liberals, in the name of equality treat minorities as 3/5 human beings as being not smart enough nor ambitious enough to follow the law or to better themselves.
Originally, under The Articles of Confederation, taxation and representation of and by individual states lead to the 3/5 compromise between northern states and southern states for Article 1. Sec. 2, par.3 of the Constitution. Northerners wanted more tax money out of southern states including taxes on the enslaved, but politically would not accept the enslaved as full citizens because it would give southern states more population based representation in Congress. Article 1. Sec. 2, par.3 was the compromise.
Today, northerners still have a 3/5 mentality as it concerns minorities. Liberals want, but don’t need minority money. They do need the minority vote and therein is the modern 3/5 mentality in which Liberals bribe minorities with social programs that hand out benefits, but only offer up lies of protection and false promises of better lives when there is absolutely no intention of delivering these things. They can’t because minorities would prosper and possibly leave the Democrat Party out of economic self interest and freedom from government interference in their lives. That’s a risk democrats will not take.
"I'll have those n*ggers voting Democratic for the next 200 years." -- Lyndon B. Johnson to two governors on Air Force One according Ronald Kessler's Book, "Inside The White House"

Racism can be observed every day. It is a disgusting thing. The blatant racism of whites on blacks and blacks on whites and minorities on other minorities is something that must be obliterated. So must soft racism and so it must, because it is not a physical, but a psychological beating that also cripples. It becomes a mindset in which one learns to live and to expect.
“That's how we're approaching this obesity initiative,” said Mrs. Obama. “That's why we set a generational goal. It would have been ridiculous for me to say, in 10 years we're going to--or in 5 years we're going to--change the way people have thought about eating and living. It doesn't happen that way. We start with kids. We start with introducing them. We start with their habits, and it's, the impact is really going to be on their kids, and how they pass that on.”
Just as Michelle Obama observed that forcing children to eat differently will cause them to view health differently, it is also the same with other behaviors such as working, being good citizens and having a moral compass. Soft bigotry does not garner good results; rather it trains individuals to fail, become bad citizens or to never realize their potential.

So, people are too lazy, too ignorant or incapable of supplying correct identification to vote?
BTW, 300 million votes? That statement might give the INS a better estimate of just how many illegal aliens are in the US.
