What's to "get?"

The United States of America is on track to become the hemisphere's northernmost Latin American country. It is a question of, "When?" Not a matter of "if."

At the present pace, Latinos, Hispanics, or whatever you want to call the native Spanish-speaking residents of the US and their offspring and descendants, they will outnumber the rest of by 2075. At the moment, they are about 25-28% of the population, that is a pretty good guess, considering that the USGOV officially admits that their are 11 million illegals. Which means that they have no clue. (Apparently they stopped after counting LA County, because there are at least 20 million.. says me.)

Soon (2025) the Latinos will be a solid third. Good idea? Bad idea? What difference does it make? They are here. Negroes, at about 13-14% of the overall population, suffer, as they never fail to point out in every other case, the most. It shows in their outrageous unemployment numbers ... hitting 40% in some urban areas as Hispanics drive them smartly from the labor force and marketplace ... welfare departments ... public sector employment... and other traditionally black-dominated areas. Acción Affirmativa, baby. Kinda bites when it doesn't help you, does it not?

Who knows? It might even shake their faith in the gay* African Mulatto whose administration they propelled to power on the hope and change platform. I hope they can wake TF up and see that the change for them ...and everybody else ... has been for the worse. Leroy want the Obama phone? TS. José got that one ... and the white folks ain't got no mo' money fo no phones!

* Maybe they should have written in Michael Jackson, at least that queer SOB could sing and dance. This marxist scumbag can't even walk and talk at the same time.

The more ridiculous Republicans (e.g. McAnus, and The Graham Cracker) cling to the Rovian hope that eventually Nuestros Amigos del Sur are all going to become Republicans because of their "Family Values." "Catholics you know, just like the Irish, Italians, and Poles." Right. It took 150 years for 15 million of those people to get here. In the next 15 years there will be 150 million of those folks here. See the difference, John. Lindsey?

Thank you. As we see time and time again there are trolls that try and spread disinformation about Ted Cruz, our next president.

Ted Cruz is for legal immigration that greatly benefits the USA such as persons with very high IQ in areas such as physics, chemistry and mathematics as well as very high technology talents.

I view talent pools of such persons as up for grabs and the more we bring to the USA the more we stay in the technological lead. For example, if there is an Einstein in Russia, we want that person to immigrate here and give them university privileges and academic freedom to extend the boundaries of science.

If there 10 million Einstein caliber scientists in the world and 3 million are born in America, then I want us actively recruiting the other 7 million to come and enjoy the blessings of freedom here in this country. It’s called market share of talent and that is what Ted Cruz is aiming at.

"Asked by Telemundo whether Romney should reinstate deportations of young people granted deferred action, Cruz said, "I do."

As you well know this applies to those "youths" apprehended upon entry.

Cruz supports legal status for those illegals now living here.

You’re deluding yourself because you’re enamored with Cruz.

Additionally, two well-known Amnesty advocates in the GOP charge on nationwide TV, watched by at least 25mil and cited as reference by publications with an audience of another 50mil... that Ted Cruz supports the legalization of those now here illegally.

And NO RESPONSE from Cruz, a prospective GOP candidate in 2016?

CBS Face The Nation has a viewership of “at least 25 million”? Is that so?

More like 2.5 million:
http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/category/sunday-shows

And the 50 Million for the NY Times and others?

Not even close:
http://www.poynter.org/latest-news/mediawire/211994/new-york-times-passes-usa-today-in-daily-circulation/

Now who is delusional?

I told you before to cease your postings to me unless you came back with real facts from the congressional website and from past discussions on FR of Ted Cruz and his position on immigration reform.

Now that I can see you coming back with grossly exaggerated media numbers and claims that I am self-deluded, I can see there is no value and no point in having you post to me at all.

CEASE AND DESIST FROM POSTING TO ME.

Rand Paul's immigration speech
...The Republican Party must embrace more legal immigration.

Unfortunately, like many of the major debates in Washington, immigration has become a stalemate-where both sides are imprisoned by their own rhetoric or attachment to sacred cows that prevent the possibility of a balanced solution.

Immigration Reform will not occur until Conservative Republicans, like myself, become part of the solution. I am here today to begin that conversation.

Let's start that conversation by acknowledging we aren't going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants.

If you wish to work, if you wish to live and work in America, then we will find a place for you...

This is where prudence, compassion and thrift all point us toward the same goal: bringing these workers out of the shadows and into being taxpaying members of society.

Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers.12 million more people assimilating into society. 12 million more people being productive contributors.

Rand Paul calls on conservatives to embrace immigration reform
Latinos, should be a natural constituency for the party, Paul argued, but "Republicans have pushed them away with harsh rhetoric over immigration." ...he would create a bipartisan panel to determine how many visas should be granted for workers already in the United States and those who might follow... [and the buried lead] "Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers...

No more time wasted in conversation, no more time wasted in voting, no more time wasted in phone calls and letter writing.

Patriot action is all that is left and called for!

The Tree of Liberty is long overdue for refreshment!
