Just among conservatives I know I can think of 6 or so who are hispanic, in the US and not native born - none fit your template. Some are citizens, others are on their way, others were just here temporarily. I can think of many other people I’ve known or met briefly who are living in central or south America who are conservative. I’ve also met a few hispanics from many places who are liberal, some radically so.
Anecdotes aside, suppose you are correct in your assessment. Should their votes be sought with different speeches? Should we appeal to conservative US citizens of hispanic origin with a different ‘conservative message’ than we use for other conservative US citizens who have different ancestries or nations of birth? If so, how would those messages differ? Should we hyphenate conservative ideas?
I’m really, really glad to hear that.
I’m just going by the ones who married into the family. They don’t identify as “hispanic” (but look it) and their ancestors probably helped Sam Houston kick Santa Anna’s butt.
In any case, can ANY group looking for racial spoils really be courted by conservatives? Either they attracted by conservative principles or not. If we court them by race, we’re abandoning the conservative principle of a color blind society for the Left’s “identity politics.”
Also, if a group is so lost to the concept of national sovereignty and the rule of law that they support illegal immigration, can we really court them?
