What do you mean win them back? They were never with us and they are illegal.

What we need to do is make sure they don’t vote.

Guess yoou didn’t read the entire article.

Hispanics are for the most part, hard-working, Christian and legal. They embrace and appreciate free enterprise at a greater rate than many native born Americans whose children are content to play their computer gamers, watch reality shows and slide through school without really learning anything. There are FAR more legal Hispanics than illegals here. And they are gowing in numbers and they are American.

One of the first Marines to die in the invasion of Kuwait under Bush I was an Hispanic who WALKED all the way from Honduras to America to get here and enlisted in the Marines because he wanted to be an American citizen. There are MANY other Hispanic Americans serving in our military - MANY.

Republicans are throwing away a great opportunity at a peril to the American dream by not actively recruiting this group of people and using them against the Marxist, Muslim-loving left.

Thise lunatics who support Aztlan and wave Mexican flags are the exception not the rule among Hispanics.

They were never with us and they are illegal.

In your mind, ALL Hispanics are illegal?

That just isn’t true; there are plenty of American citizens who are of hispanic decent; what is very interesting is when you ask the “old blood” or the just-got-my-citizenship types about immigration issues. You would be hard-pressed to find a group that was as passionately opposed to the immigration practices we have now.

Furthermore, Peurto Ricans are from a US territory: Peurto Rico.

You write blather, sir. I live in Phoenix. I went to school with many Mexican Americans whose parents were American citizens. My friends were American citizens. Many of my friends stand against illegal immigration--they are embarrassed by it.

I'm not certain whether you write from misinformation or from bigotry, but you are wrong in your thinking.

And by the way, virtually all family-oriented Mexican Americans are conservative, church-going folks who have sent their sons and daughters to fight in our wars, and are American patriots

The Mexican Americans that we need to eradicate are the ones who have bought into the drug cartels. We need to find these guys--some of them executioners--and prosecute and execute the ones who de4serve it.

What’s your disfunction? I normally don’t attack the poster but you must have trouble reading or distinguishing illegal immigrant from Hispanic. The confusion is revolting.

Your post is representative of a tendency for Republicans and Conservatives to shrink at the challenge of engaging diverse groups. The republican party is a natural fit for many of the values/priorities largely held across the Hispanic community. We’ve done well with them in the past and can do so again. And yes Virginia - they do vote - legally.

Final comment, Cubans? Heard the word? It’s not just a cigar, I promise.
