this is the "elephant in the room" on this immigration issue. where are legal Hispanic Americans on this issue? I think its tough to read.

if the only way to get votes of legal Hispanic Americans - is too allow 100 million new Hispanic ummigrants over the next 20 years, via amnesty and family "unification" - this country is in serious trouble.

Even if these new immigrants had a fully westeren background, just back their economic status alone, most will make less than $25K a year, will see them vote Democratic by a 2-1 margin when they vote for politicians that will give them all sorts of benifits, as what has happened to California. But with non Westeren and often Marxist backgrounds, even immigrants that are far up on the economic ladder, like the H-1B visa holders that become citizens vote for Democrats by a 2-1 or even a 3-1 margin.

I have mentioned this before, but it bears repeating, do business owners and managers who have been behind this mess since the early 80s lack the critical thinking skills to see that this will produce a national political enviroment that will be far worse than the carter years were in terms of the govrenmnet being anti business?

Legal hispanic here, as far as I am concerned the most pressing issue right now is our loss of immigration control, I strongly support fining all businessed that hire illegal aliens and militarizing our borders if need be.

Is there a "Hispanic" vote? I think that belief is just another stereotypical liberal media fallacy. The belief that somewhere there is this "Hispanic" race of people who monolithically vote and act as one unit it totally false. Mexicans have a very different history and culture than do Puerto Ricans, or Cubans, or West Indians. It is simply racist to group all these diverse cultures into one group and absurd to think they all behave and vote the same.
Why would Puerto Ricans support Mexican illegals when Puerto Rico has been a US territory throughout history and they can't even agree to support statehood or independence. Do we believe that all Spanish speaking people unite around a hatred and distrust of "Anglos". Is the Cuban or Dominican experience the same as illegal Mexicans? We do everyone a disservice when we categorize people this way.
