Bannon's "Not So Secret" Secret!

     After Bannon's scripted faux- banishment from the White House and his extended holiday inflaming European nationalistic bigotry, well, he's back.  Surprise, surprise....just in time to tweak the '18 election.  Regrettably that should not be all that difficult.  It was reported today that Bannon and his minions have, using publicly available data, identified 40 target Congressional Districts preparatory to managing Republican victories. Victories in just these districts will guarantee continued Republican Congressional Control, for the "Good of the Planet".  The Democrats will, of course, overlook the voter dynamics in these 40 contests, preferring to "feel united' by focusing  on "MSNBC Outrage", often outrage that Bannon does not play by their rules.

     So what is Bannon's "secret potion" that, when released in the 40 districts, will carry the day?  My distilled insight is that Bannon knows that:   American Minorities Have No WMD's.  From this fact, not a premise, its a short algorithm to the finish line.  It goes something like this.

     1.  About one-third of Americans, indeed likely one-third of all humans, in maturity do not move beyond their feeling laden cultural directive to always act on the Darwinian "primary group altruism" foundation, i.e., racism  In today's culture, these people bias Republican

     2.  About one-third of Americans, indeed likely one-third of all humans, in maturity come to identify with the reasoned sensibility that "racial equality" is a better strategy for achieving their personal happiness.  In today's culture these people bias Democrat. (Most voting minorities having experientially realized that "equality" is a move up, so they identify here)  

     3.  About one-third of Americans, indeed likely one-third of all humans, in maturity remain uncertain and ambivalent about this "group-size"  identity tradeoff.  These people Bannon targets as needing an "emotional push" to choose their side in a dualistic face off.

     4.  To manipulate this uncommitted estate,  the Democrats choose reason and compassion, and Bannon chooses fear.  The closing arguments are:

          *  Democrats offer: that logic, morality, and Steve Pinkers facts lead to choosing "all-inclusive"

          *  Bannon offer; that the existential fear of Nuclear War is paramount and that these ambivalent ones had better vote for "war readiness", because no matter how much they might long for "all-inclusiveness", they need a "strong man", least they might get "lit-up". Said another way.... Don't worry about "freedom  for all", at least not right now....The Minorities have no Nukes)*

             * For 75 years our culture has been scaring us about WMD.  The fear has been inextricably linked to Russian Communism, and Russian Communism has been strong linked to Socialism and Socialism has ben strong linked to "all-inclusive" Liberalism.  Perhaps at some point in the future, assuming there is a future,  Pinker's trend line will tip the scales.  My sense is that in 2018, it is not very likely. {{Not likely even though the Liberals have sought to confuse the "undeclared one-third" by calling into question how a true conservative agenda could be  "war-ready" when they are snuggling with the enemy}} In my opinion, this counter claim will not fly!
