Step One: Everyone's amnestied.

Step Two: After they're amnestied, they can bring in all their relatives.

If Hispanics voted 50.1 percent for Democrats, amnesty would be a bad deal for Republicans. But, in fact, they vote 70 percent to 80 percent for Democrats.

How did it become an urgent priority for Republicans to bring in 30 million new voters, 80 percent of whom will vote Democratic? Democrats want 30 million new voters and they will say anything to get there: --

It's a crisis! Illegal immigrants are "living in the shadows"!

That's not a "crisis." At most -- and this is highly dubious -- it's a crisis for the illegal immigrants. But evidently, "living in the shadows" is at least better than living in Guadalajara. Otherwise, there's an easy solution. - Ann Coulter...

Immigration reform? Gimme a break....

In my view if you think the GOP will represent us, you’re hopeless.

It’s time to make them the third party.

Which spells doom.

There might be a better way. The problem, as I see it, is contained totally within the national party -- the so-called GOPe. I.e., Washington.

The state parties, on the other hand, remain suitably conservative...and effective! We're not losing state elections, we're winning them. It's the national party that is the problem.

Is it not time for several key state parties (Texas, for one) to declare their independence from the national party?

RE: What makes you think that Rubio, Ryan or Bush will appoint conservatives to the Supreme Court?

Gut feeling that’s all. I cannot speak about Jeb Bush, but other than the issue of immigration, Rubio and Ryan ON MOST OTHER ISSUES are quite conservative.

Alito was nominated by Bush Jr. ( albeit after the brouhaha over his initial nomination of Harriet Miers ).

Clarence Thomas was nominated by Bush Sr.

And of course, Scalia was nominated by Mr. Amnesty -— Ronald Reagan himself.

The poll is skewed Democrat relative to the 2012 Exit Poll. It also shows approval ratings in the high 70s for Obama and Hillary. Our potential for support from this group isn’t high, but is maybe a bit higher than this poll indicates.

The small number of Latino votes we get is not going to change much by the Republicans mimicking Democrats. The small number will increase over time, in the normal course of this immigrant group assimilating into the US and climbing up the socio-economic ladder.

By sticking to our principles, we will eventually get a good percentage of these votes. Well, unless the Democrats succeed with these people the way they have succeeded with blacks, in putting them into permanent welfare dependency.

In the meanwhile, we need to appeal to whites, to get them to vote in the same percentage as blacks, and to get a few more percents of all demographic groups. Not by changing our message, but by taking our message to more people.

Another blatantly obvious push for amnesty. These people are traitors and someday I hope they are held properly accountable.

There, I fixed it.

The three RINOS -- Rubio, Bush, and Ryan -- don't have support of conservative "Latinos" People of Hispanic background who vote Republican are Conservatives. People who vote based on their membership in some ethnic group vote Demonrat. They don't mix.

Spite their nose for the sake of Illegal Amnesty.

What they are doing only helps the Democrats, Ask yourself Why they would do this!

One suspects that the Democrat thumb was measurably on the scale for this alleged "poll".

And I don't believe the poll that said GWB go 40 something % of the Hispanic vote in 2004. None of the pre-election polls that year went as high as 40%, and some were in the 20s.

> Rubio, Bush, Ryan have chance to win over 40% of Latino vote

In other words, 60% will vote Democrat. If a group votes 60% Democrat, we hurt ourselves by importing more of that group. Why is this so hard to understand?

I won’t stay home if one of those three clowns gets the nomination. If it’s Ryan or the Rube, I’ll vote third party, and if it’s Jeb Bush, I’ll write in Terri Schindler.
