The demographic the Democratic Party IMO needs to make the most inroads in is the white male vote. Us democrats should feel lucky that blacks and woman have the right to vote. Without it, we would only win maybe once every 40 years. Even if we can't win the white male vote we should at least try to win the white vote as a whole. Females as a whole tend to vote democratic much more than men but the democrats even lost the white female vote in 2008. That is a shock when you consider that this election was the biggest democratic victory in 44 years.

As for the region of the country I think that the western states is the area where I like what the democrats are doing. I think it is possible in the near future that democrats should be able to win in every western state except for Utah, Wyoming, and Idaho (I don't count Alaska as a western state since they aren't in the contiguous states).
