GOP Does Not Have A Hispanic Problem
Woldnet Daily ^ | April 20, 2013 | Peter Brimelow

Everyone knows that the Republican Party needs to extend amnesty to 12-20 million illegal aliens in order to win the Hispanic vote. Right?

And it's not just that Hispanics will never vote Republican anyway because they are poor and naturally like government redistribution, and because they have eyes and can see that Marco Rubio is a white Cuban, not a Mexican.

>> Marco Rubio is a white Cuban, not a Mexican.

The myth of hispanic solidarity is a thing that GOP hispanderers need to consider. Mexicans, Cubans, and Puerto Ricans don’t want the same thing and each consider themselves to be superior to the others.

I’m married to a naturalized Cuban. They consider themselves superior to everyone.

And, in some ways, they are superior to your average bobble-headed, sports-addled American. They work incredibly hard and only look forward. They’re motivated by having seen Communism close-up.

I’ve found that first- and second-generation Japanese are as ambitious.

75% of Latinos want:

1) Government handouts, and
2) An America that looks like them.

“All for the race!” - La Raza

No multi-culti that includes Whites taught to them.

>They work incredibly hard

That’s not the problem.

The problem is that they work incredibly hard for $5 an hour to make somebody else rich and then make up the difference in Earened Income Tax Credits and other poverty subsidies from everybody else.

I’ve heard tell there is the same kind of division with the ubiquitous “African American” term also, mainly from within the ranks.

Actually, Cubans, per capita, start more businesses or enter the professions at a higher rate than any other ethnic group in the country.

Your confusing Cubans with “Hispanics” that exist only in your imagination...such as boobgeymen like “those damned Mexicans.”

It’s a common problem with geriatrics.

“boobgey:

That’s pretty funny.

Meant “boogeymen,” of course.

Blasted laptop!

Which is why Mexicans resent Cubans.

And why Cubans hate to be mistaken for Mexicans amongst the ignorant.

The article shows the fundamental contradiction within the GOP's 1980's Free Trade fundamentalism position and it's supposed commitment to social conservatism.

The people who are committed to the latter - Reagan Democrats - are the ones hurt most by the former.

When - and if - the GOP can lose the contempt for the American working class, and give them some kind of job security hopes, they will stop holding their noses and voting for an alien freak like Hussein.

But that probably won't happen anytime soon, as the maroons in the GOP leadership are listening to garbage like Rubio, McCain and Graham.

And so they will slowly sink further into oblivion and irrelevance.

But at least we can say they were warned.

Brimelow analyzes the issue perfectly.

Trying to find Conservative voters among Blacks and Hispanics is a fool's errand.

The largest voting bloc is white.

The most receptive voters to a Conservative message are white.

Go where the votes are.

I've been preaching this message for the last year.

I worked for a rent-a-rig oil company in Venezuela back in the '80s. A Mexican guy there said that all of South America considered Mexico as the bottom-of-the-barrel linguistically (Ecuador was on top) - so I have no doubt that that ranking goes for other aspects as well.

The only problem to gop has is intelligence or the lack of it.

Hard workers, no doubt.

Unfortunately, they are also overwhelmingly Hard Left.

According to Pew Research, Japanese citizens vote 75% for the Democrat Party.

Go where the votes are.

California + Texas + Florida + Arizona = 133 electoral votes (or 125 Representatives, about a quarter of the Electoral College or the House of Representatives)

California = 37% Hispanic

Texas = 37% Hispanic

Florida = 22% Hispanic

Arizona = 29% Hispanic

Here’s a an idea! Why doesn’t the GOP take the moral high ground on all issues. Pro Life, Pro Marriage (man and woman traditional family), enforce immigration laws so there is a legal path to citizenship, balance the budget (live within your means), guard our borders and protect our citizens so we can live in peace, etc. Continuing to try to get votes by talking out of both sides out of their mouths is not going to win them any friends or votes. Just the opposite will happen. I’m sick of their jelly spines!

My continual prayer is for God to raise up Godly men and women who fear Him and want to obey Him to be elected to our Federal, State and Local governments. However, I continually ask myself, who would want to put up with what this pursuit would do to their family. Everyone has a past. These political types would take a small issue in someone’s past, or even create one where there isn’t one and totally destroy this person or their family. Who wants to go through that. You have to “play ball” their way or you will pay and be an outcast.

There is no way God is going to bless the direction that this country is going. Our political parties are godless, lawless, and without any moral fiber. If God does not intervene and allow Godly men and women to participate in our government, we are going to continue to spiral downward morally, ethically, financially, educationally, etc.

We can get non-Cuban Hispanic votes in the long run as they assimilate, Americanize, and do better economically. High immigration rates prevent all of this.

Some people just can’t be warned; they won’t listen to a Jeremiah.
