Republican gains during redistricting were largely because vulnerable Republican incumbents received safer districts. Redistricting safeguarded at least eight Republican incumbents who would have otherwise lost re-election in 2012. “Controlling the redistricting process in these states would have the greatest impact on determining how both state legislative and congressional district boundaries would be drawn.” The report credits gerrymandered maps in Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin with allowing Republicans to overcome a 1.1 million popular-vote deficit. . In Ohio, for instance, Republicans won 12 out of 16 House races “despite voters casting only 52 percent of their vote for Republican congressional candidates.
"To what extent was it Romney's '47%' comments that meant Obama won the 2012 Presidential Election? 45 marks. Mitt Romney lost the 2012 presidential election to Barack Obama. However the election on paper seemed to favour Romney, Obama in his first term had faced unemployment as high as 10% and it sat at 8% before Election Day. The economy was still facing an upward struggle and suggested that Obama had failed to deliver on promises made in his campaign.

In the PBS feature film it goes on to explain how America is in the midst of a demographic shift in which we are seeing marginalization of white people and reform in favor of the Democratic party. The 2012 Presidential Election was adversely favored towards Barack Obama and the Democratic party, the majority reason being a strong influx of non-white voters, more than in any previous elections. The question lies on voters balloting for Obama but black unemployment has risen to double digits since the President has took office. As well as total unemployment being at a high, the national debt is at sixteen trillion dollars. Race in todays politics is a taboo topic, white people can not unite in fear of being labeled as racial superioritists and a black president who marks african american on the national census but campaigns for whites and spanish americans.
He mentioned that taxes had risen and people could not pay the taxes, trade was down, industrial enterprise had fallen, farmers could not sell their produce, and the savings of thousands of families was gone. Although those were all serious concerns, he said, “more important, a host of unemployed citizens face the grim problem of existence” (801). The unemployment rate was at an all time high of 25% and Americans were facing a bleak future. Roosevelt was smart to point out all of these issues in the beginning of his presidency because it showed Americans what he wanted to focus his efforts on and how he wanted to improve the country. Franklin Delano Roosevelt was exactly what America needed.
This could cause some conflict in the government which would not help matters either. 15 million Americans are still out of work, and many citizens are questioning whether or not they should have trusted Obama. Gas prices have been a major topic as of late, and they will most likely continue to get worse unless a major change is made by Obama and the rest of the Democratic nation. The national average gas price has gone up a whopping 25 percent since Obama became President. The Democrats blame the Republicans for this high cost of gasoline because they link Republicans to big oil companies.
A $10 billion fund to prevent foreclosures, funding for roads and bridges etc. Many things happened during the presidency, which were outright mishandled by the Government. “Cash for clunkers” completely ruined the used car market, sky rocketing the price of used vehicles, the utter collapse of the housing market, and unemployment rates skyrocketed. The Obama jobs act of 2011 was a total disaster. It was marketed towards the citizens of the United States as a tool to “put Americans back to work” without adding “a dime to the deficit”(Epstein, 2013).
