If republicans can't come up with good candidates, yes.
I think the main problem is the way Republican politicians, reporters, analysts talk about blacks and other minorities. They treat them like children or people below them.
Just look how Fox News analyzed why they lost their votes and how they can gain their votes. It's actually the same way they talk to youth, which is another reason they lose the youth vote.
not sure how this analysis came out to that conclusion. Romney got more votes than John McCain. President Obama got 4 million less votes. I would guess that the ones that stayed home where dissatisfied Obama voters and not would be Romney voters.

That's what I expected too, but according to the article less white voters came out for republicans and more black voters came out for democrats. It is fox news though, so who knows lol.
Increasing white voter turnout is clearly the key to Republican success, just as boosting non-white turnout helps Democrats. The problem of course in the former case is that any effort to do so would be denounced as racist. This has led to the absurd situation we see today where every mainstream analyst exhorts the GOP to make drastic changes in policy and concentrate all its efforts on fighting for the tiny sliver of minority Democrat voters who might switch parties.

It is not racist to want to win an election, it is racist when you get up infront of a crowd of white people and talk about African Americans and Hispanics as if we are the plague.
You ever watched Rick Santorum, Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich speeches while they were campaigning in the South ?

But when Biden tells the NAACP that the Republicans want to put them back in chains that is not considered racist ?
Take out the black candidate and black voter participation rate will drop.
