Never say never. Always avoid always.
I was encouraged by the number of Hispanic Christians who protested against sodomy in the capital of Rhode Island last year...they were numerous and LOUD.
Frankly, the University of Maryland’s professor may have his own reasons for coming to his conclusion.
You can't do immigration out of Latin America, in the manner that we've been doing it, - every single year, and not wind up with a voting block that skews to the left.
Year in, and year out, the majority of Latin American immigrants come from the lower end of the socioeconomic ladder.
And those type of Hispanics, both here as well as throughout Latin America itself, wind up voting for left-of-center/liberal candidates on election day.
