Thanks for the Ping.

I am on board.

Munisteri is absolutely the tops. I have always been impressed how he runs his conventions and he is an absolute genuine person. A uniter, not a manipulator.

AND there have always been Tejanos and Gringos in Texas. From the very beginning. Both at the Alamo and San Jacinto. Fact.

It is true that many hispanic Texans are predisposed to the ComDems. The business class hispanics ARE NOT. And many of the working class are not. I can tell you some amazing stories about that.

This is not about gaming the system, this is about being a Texan.

Texas is not where you were born, but a State of Heart, Mind and Attitude.

And Open spaces cements the love of Freedom.

Leave us alone to live our lives in peace and we will get along fine, if that is not satisfactory, we will deal with it.

To the ComDems, Pound Sand.

RNC is delusional.

Rural Texas Bump!

Open Spaces cements the love of Freedom. Race has nothing to do with it.

Freedom is the most intoxicating of passions. You never recover from it.

Texas GOP is Conservative.

In fact many of the Dems in Texas are more conservative than the DC GOPe.

My experience with Hispanic immigrants has been good. As you say, they have had good family values and good values in general.

Of course, I haven't been around the criminal element.

I got into an extended conversation with a plumber who came to fix the sink. We agreed on everything. He said, among many other things: "If the government can tell me what to do with my property, I don't own it."

I'd much rather be among these people than the mentally sick, decadent gringo "Liberals" who are destroying this country.

The only problem I have with Hispanic immigrants is that they tend to vote Democrat.
