Because conservatives don't wont to be tarred as "racists", they say their opposition to illegal immigration and mass legal immigration has nothing to do with race. I don't think that is true, nor should it be. Hispanics are not a "race", but some research has found that the average of IQ of Hispanic Americans is about 10 points (about 2/3 of a standard deviation) less than that of non-Hispanic whites. Blacks are about 15 points below whites. These IQ differences are reflected in academic achievement. With white Americans' fertility slightly below replacement level, effectively all population growth in the U.S. is coming from lower-IQ groups. This will have disastrous long-term consequences. It contributed to the housing bubble and the election of a leftist like Barack Obama.
If I thought legalizing the currently illegal aliens and their children would eventually result in their reaching the average in education and income, I might favor it. But there is no reason to believe that it will.

This is terrible!
Even when we let ILLEGALS in they remain uneducated!

Such a beautiful state. What a shame that it is being driven to third world status and bankruptcy, by liberal idiot PC politicians.

So this means that Alabama actually does have smarter kids than California? Man...I can sit and have a six-pack of beer tonight and think over that thought.

Our K-12 school children are a snapshot of time and what the very near term future will look like.
CA has no hope.

We need to deport or imprison ALL illegal aliens, including their anchor babies, seal/secure the border and SHOOT anyone who tries to re-enter illegally.

The out of wedlock birth rate for Hispanics is 50% topped only by the black rate of 68%. The Hispanic high school drop out rate is over 50%. Children raised in single family households and lacking a high school diploma is the social pathology for failure in this country and greater dependence upon government.
FYI: The Democrats created the artificial category of Hispanics in the 1970s as a way to create another class of victims, which they could imbue with special rights and privileges, including affirmative action and minority business set asides. The result is another minority group that votes Democrat. It doesnt matter that, according to the Census Bureau, 54 percent of Hispanics self-identify themselves as white. The Census Bureau has even created the phony category of non-Hispanic whites, which are now 66 percent of the population and will be 50 percent in 2042. The reality is that whites will still be more than 70 percent of the population in 2042.

The vast majority of the 1.2 million LEGAL IMMIGRANTS that enter this country are poor, uneducated, and unskilled. We are importing poverty. And 87% of the 1.2 million are minorities as defined by the USG. By 2023 half of the children 18 and under will be minorities and by 2042 half of the country. Immigration accounts for 75% of our population growth.

Those “anchor babies” are U.S. citizens and cannot be deported without starting a civil war.

We’re not getting the best and brightest of Mexico and Central America, that’s for sure.
We’re serving as the bottom drain valve instead. We’re getting the illiterates who are unemployable south of the border.

Another example that "change" often leads to failure.

Because of all of the diversity Mississippi was the least educated state. How does it feel California?
