The Hispanics that vote republican in large numbers, are the Protestant Hispanics.
I hope, by your post that the jury is still out on many of these folks.. Putting out a positive message to correct the stupid amnesty BS, with reasonable changes can change the outcome of their voting pattern..
I agree, they are not atheist, so they have little in common with leftist on that level, as well as many other issues..
A majority of legal Hispanics, at least until the third generation (and I don’t believe they have polled further) are on some form of welfare—and of course they all qualify for affirmative action.
Also, I’d like to see those polls and how they are worded to believe them.
What I’ve seen is results that look more like this:
Thats what you got out of everything I have written? I give up with you, it must be what you ate tonight, there is no other explanation.. Thanks.. LOL
Agree with what, that the Catholic Hispanics are the leftists, and the Protestant Hispanics are close to a 50/50 vote?
Alas, I don't have a link for you. But both were reported here on FreeRepublic within the past year, I believe. And both produced very consistent results.
In 2060 we will, as a nation, have the current demographics that CA has today. Do you see CA turning red any time soon? NV, CO, FL, and a number of other states are going from purple to blue mainly due to immigration. We have brought in over 25 million LEGAL IMMIGRANTS over the past 20 years.
In 1970 one in 21 was foreign-born in this country; today it is one in 8, the highest in 90 years; and within a decade it will be one in 7, the highest in our history. Such massive demographic changes have electoral consequences.
I’ll be here in 2060 to dispute or agree with those projections, and see what it means.. I started exercising yesterday.. LOL
I missed your “delusional” assertion, I’ll have to work on that.. I get back to you on that.. LOL
LOL. You don’t need no stinkin’ facts.
Figure 4.2 should be required reading for Republican politicians.
By 2019 half of the children 18 and under will be minorities as classified by the USG. Every cohort that turns 18 is more Dem than the previous one.
One aspect of Latino culture not always recognized or ignored in American politics, is their root cultures generally evolved without the elements of our Constitution or Bill of Rights.
Politically, even conservative Latinos, generally don’t intuitively think with an assumption of rights as God given bases for their political authority.
Instead, they do have a tendency to obey the authority of whoever is in power. That tendency can sometimes extend beyond Constitutional rights regarding their obedience.
WRT Obama, many take the stance that since he won the election, whatever he and his party want, they are to obey.
They are naturally tribal — that is, they naturally behave tribally. Nobody has to give them special privileges; but neither must anybody ever disrespect them for asking for them. Republicans APPEAR to disrespect them for asking for special favors: bilingual public signs and documents, amnesty, a pass on using terms and organizations like “La Raza”.
Democrats really cater to tribal behavior and outlook. Thus it can truly be said, the dems are trying to carve America up into little Balkan states. It’s immoral, but hey, it works.
So, hispanics are naturally tribal, which makes them good democrats.
Unfortunately, too many in the GOP leadership are laboring under "there's a pony in there somewhere" belief when it comes to converting Hispanics and immigrants into Reps. It ain't gonna happen.
