Oh, this is funny. Doesn’t the author know that immigration is ONLY about hispancs?
Posters here at FR will bitch and moan because so-and-so on FOX News won't work to advance conservatives causes, but those same posters will continue to pay their salaries.
If anyone is Lilly White raise your hands /S
I think the new congress critter from Mass is 1/64000 Chellokee. My Grandfather got compensation from the government because of the Trail of Tears because his people were sent west removed from their homes! Also my mothers side of the family had Indian blood so I have quite a bit of it in me but I have never been able to use it to gain favors or jobs how the heck was she...
I tried it once to get a government job had to have proof took them proof my Grandads family was on the Dawes Roll’s and he was on the Guion Miller Rroll Index and they told me that was not enough go figure!
Nope. As another poster pointed out, the bread and circuses are entrenched on both sides, just in different forms.
Gay marriage lost in California in 2008, because blacks came out to vote for Obama in record numbers, and 80% of them voted against gay marriage. The black vote was the margin of defeat for gay marriage. What apparently made a difference this year is that (1) Obama endorsed gay marriage, which swayed many blacks' opinions, and (2) Obama then met with many black pastors from religiously-conservative denominations and urged them to tone down their anti-gay rhetoric.
It IS sad, but they just will not do it.
I’m an Asian born american. I can tell you that when GOP can’t draw support from Asians there are some thing really wrong. You can throw away the assumption of minority are for free stuffs out of the window. Asians are the most hard working people around maybe same with latinos. I have a chinese friend with a baby. Her husband left her and she’s left without job. She refused to get a foodstamp card because that was kind of insulting to her dignity. Believe me Asian people are conservative at heart and they are pro-life. They care about social issues but not more than economic issues.
And yet my Asian friends do support democrat party by a lot. Older Asian groups like Vietnamese, Taiwanese, Burmese, Cambodian were overwhelming for GOP because of Ronald Reagan. Now Reagan is dead. Young Asians view GOP as outdated, white party, old people party, etc. The problem is in the last 20 years, GOP has no answer to liberal media machine attacking to the party image. They let them define them as such as such. Young Asians went to schools and colleges and were indoctrinated by liberal education system. It’s not cool anymore to be a republican these day. And that’s really sad.
Chi-com colonists and Muslim colonists.
The muzzies that came since 9/11 (seems like millions of them!) see that you can keep voting over and over without dipping your thumb in ink.
The real divide is between people who want to live their lives as free people, and people who want to be taken care of by the state, or who believe the short term benefit of getting something from the state is more important than the long term health of our nation.
Anyone who is voting for a candidate because they'll get free birth control, or a phone, instead of thinking "why would I want the government involved in my personal affairs?" hasn't yet learned the cost of their decision, or simply hopes to take the benefit now and somehow avoid the cost later. Or they believe that the government really is like a surrogate parent, and will help them throughout their life.
Many young people, even the descendants of immigrants who escaped tyranny, don't understand how fast the government can turn from good to evil. They should all meet someone who has seen tyranny up close and personal.
They should talk to a German in who lived there in the 30s.....when Hitler took over, he totally overhauled the German welfare system.....people were taken care of, they didn’t have to worry about starving anymore or being unemployed.........They soon learned the hard way that those came with a very steep price indeed.
The Japanese Americans always leaned liberal due to the forced encampment of WW2. The Chinese Americans are socially conservative but they believe gov should fund education (public and college). The biggest tipping point is the Lee Wen Ho affair where a DOE scientist was suspected of being a Chinese spy. Before the FBI could get to the bottom of it, the Clinton admin leaked the investigation. Lee was arrested and held with no charge and since the word leaked out the FBI investigation went nowhere. In the end the conservatives were castigating Lee as a Chinese spy. Problem it also affected many Chinese Americans. Consider the incident similar to the Dryfus Affair and how it affected French Jews. The other issue is the constant harping about China on trade, human rights and etc. There are many US allies that have equal bad human rights, trade and etc issues, but China is picked out while others are ignored heighten Chinese suspicions of US motivations based on jeolousy. The Chinese have a saying about Americans. When you are poor, Americans feel sorry for you and will give the shirt of their backs, but if you become successful, Americans will become jealous and despise you. They see many critics of China over human rights, trade, military modernization, etc as American jealousy of Chinese rising success. GOP is seen more anti Chinese then Dems. Go back and look at the voting data. After Nixon open relations with China, Chinese American voters leaned GOP, Reagan seen as symbol of traditional family values, C-A voters leaned GOP till Bush 41 when the US embargo China over T Square, and the subsequent rise of DoD view that China is threat to US in 21 Century. Lee Wen Ho affair is the tipping point for many C-A voters. The other issue is amnesty for illegal immigrants. There are many in the Chinese community who are illegal immigrants by over staying their 6 month visa. Many are professionals who work under the table in Chinatown.
If the mere fact of a fellow black in the White House endorsing homosexual “marriage” was all it needed to change their stance, then it wasn’t very deep-rooted in the first place. I wouldn’t change my stance on the wrongness of homosexual “marriage” merely because some RINO endorses it, and especially not because the RINo endorses it, and especially while said RINO also endorses the anti-conservative position of more government dependence.
It’s not the baseline “gimmees” they support, it’s things like government grants for small business targeted to racial minorities and immigrants, and family reconciliation for immigrants.
So whites need to just lay down and die, shut up and pay our taxes, and stop striving to have any political representation in this nation? It’s not “cool” to be white, according to the “diversity” industry (”diversity” meaning representation of any race except white), so the GOP is not “cool” by fact of a large white voting bloc?
How did you get that out his/her post???
Which is why this can't go on unchallenged anymore. The world has no deficiency of anti-white sentiment, and this should be no more acceptable than any other kind of bigotry.
A lot of the Indian-Americans who registered as Republican in the Bush years are now registered Democrats. They're playing it safe in the way they learned in the old country.
I'm finding out now that in India parties have alternated in power, but when these people were growing up for many of them it must have seemed like the only choice was Mrs. Gandhi or chaos. I suspect the thinking was similar for Koreans or Taiwanese or Chinese or Thais of the same generation.
Their children go to top universities and are liberal, but probably not much more liberal than the other students at those schools. They may cite their ethnicity as a reason for voting as they did, but I suspect their White classmates voted much the same way.
And this is why the STUPID PARTY remains stupid! Again, rinos are losers. Look at the facts!
If the mere fact of a fellow black in the White House endorsing homosexual marriage was all it needed to change their stance, then it wasnt very deep-rooted in the first place.

Excellent point.
I used to have a ‘thing’ with a Black DC talk show host (think he is still on XM) and I was his ‘token whitey’. Believe Joe Madison is the name....
He used to give me some good air time and we could discuss things, not have a continual screaming match.
His main contention on time on air was....(his was midnight to 6 AM)
The regular caller gets 2-4 minutes which is plenty of time to get your point across and have a good discourse.
A good caller got 3-8 minutes and a real interesting caller 10 or more, dependent on the ‘waiting list’.
I usually got the 7-10 treatment (on more than a few occasions I cut the call short) but his main thing was,
I can give you 1/2 hour on air but if you are truly committed to your thought, 1/2 hour is not enough time to change ones mind - Mine or Yours.
One of his ‘favorite’ tirades was Conservative? What in the Hell are you trying to Conserve?
Admitted he was playing to the Black audience but he was not quite as bad as WOL (Cathy Hughes?) was as far as tolerance went..
The GOP is like Lot in the midst of Sodom and Gomorrah, I’m afraid the majority of Americans have turned their backs on God, Obama and his ilk are reflective of that, I hope I’m wrong, but humanity worships materialism, their Gods are Nikes, I-pods, and Costco deals.
