Latino assemblyman: Asians not ‘people of color’
CalWatchDog ^ | April 27, 2014 | Chris Reed

The increasing rift between Latino and Asian Democrats over Latinos’ newly revived interest in gutting Proposition 209 took a funny twist in the Sacramento Bee. So much for the Rainbow Coalition — it turns out that one lawmaker thinks Asian-Americans are no longer “of color”:

This way, when they talk about the failings of minorities in schools due to a white power structure and white racism, they can conveniently exempt Asians.

The Asians exempted themselves from that group...............

The Democrat Party has perfectly set the table to eventually destroy itself in a race war.

I wonder if sub continent Indians are white too? My guess is yes. The definition of white is: anyone who en masse achieves and does not live on the gov’t teet.

Well....it is understandable. That dead carcass of the old racist white beast has only so much. Too many victim-vultures picking at the carrion is bound to result in infighting.....

I say let’s pop some popcorn.

Real Hispanics are white—these ‘tards better understand that. My wife is Cuban—very white and almost Celtic-looking. Her parents are direct descendants of Spanish & French colonists to the island. I am Hispanic (from Spain—that means real Hispanic). Mom is from Bilbao.

These Mezo-Indians have no idea what the hell a “latino” is.
Here’s a hint....it ain’t somebody who speaks broken spanish and is of Mayan or Nahuatl origin.

Well we learned from George Zimmerman that Hispanics also are not people of color.

Aren’t all Native Americans and thus by extension Hispanics technically Asian because their ancestors CAME from Asia over the Bering strait land bridge over 30,000 years ago??

Unless Hispanics is only people with white spanaird blood from the 15th century conquistadors in them???

I get so confused when they start trying to take a hetrogenous group of people who all live south of the rio grande all the way to tierra del feugo and trying to cram them all into the PC group called “Hispanic”.....

It is like Common Core has invaded Social Studies....

So....are there “White Hispanics” and “Colored Hispanics” now?

Most are from Cuba and other Caribbean nations.

I've heard that most Cubans won't deny a "mixing" of both.

Ask George Zimmerman. The only time he is counted as non-white is when liberals write breathless articles about how whites will no longer be a majority.

I had a friend who passed away, from Cuba, and warned me of this back in the 1980s when I lived in Miami. He absolutely despised liberals and especially those who told him that Cuba was a paradise of sorts. Incredible.

I worked with a Cuban man who had blue eyes, pale skin, and a slight southern accent.

These Mezo-Indians have no idea what the hell a “latino” is. Here’s a hint....it ain’t somebody who speaks broken spanish and is of Mayan or Nahuatl origin.

I believe they share a common ancestry with Asians.

Much asians culture demands are education, hard work and personal independence. Luis Alejo is a big fan of the so-called “leaders” who are working to destroy those things in African-American culture, and he, himself, wants to end those things in Latino culture.

And if the Asians won’t come around to his way of thinking, he wants no part of them.

They’re too busy working and running there kids to tutors and music lessons to care, ie preparing themselves and future generations for personal success. Ditto, Indians.

Asians’ natural allies are those who allow unlimited immigration into the US, for family reunification, and employment of fellow ethnics, and inexpensive labor, and block voting.

Conservatives who put their hopes in Asians are those who put their hopes in Latino family values.

Yep. And “Black Mexicans”, as well.

Interesting side note: Google “Black Mennonites”.
