So now you have decided to try the personal attacks while defending immigration and the 1965 Immigration Act.

We have about 150 year history of the Catholic vote, and you know that they supported Obama both times, they have only supported the the republican 5 times in our history and only once against a sitting democrat, ever.

Before the 1965 JFK act, some polls say they voted GOP in 1956, that is it, period.

The Catholic denomination is a church denomination, not a race, and the fact that Hispanic Catholics are flooding america, won’t change the Catholic vote, it will remain democrat.

That is a problem for some of us, but not for you evidently, I really did not expect you to so fiercely defend mass liberal immigration.

California changed because of the Catholic vote, and the left hopes Catholics will overwhelm Texas as well.

“”During the 1920s and 1930s Los Angeles was a bastion of Anglo Protestantism, reflecting the values of Midwestern parishioners who had been carried to the Southland on the Southern Pacific Railroad. Well into the 1970s, Protestant denominational leaders enjoyed comfortable, influential ties with the city is still-strong “downtown business
establishment,” which itself was largely Protestant.

The Immigration Act of 1965, however, created the condition for a radically different religious future for the City of Angels-a future that would anoint Roman Catholicism as the area’s dominant religious group. Today Roman Catholicism is the single largest faith tradition in Los Angeles County, with 294 parishes and 3,631,368 adherents.
Among Christians, 71% are Catholics. Between 1980 and 1997, Roman Catholicism experienced a 36% growth.””

Your passionate pro-immigration, pro-democrat, pro-liberal, pro-Catholic vote defense, is baffling.

Do you have a comprehension problem? Since when am I defending immigration and the 1965 immigration act? Read my post #11.

We have about 150 year history of the Catholic vote, and you know that they supported Obama both times, they have only supported the the republican 5 times in our history and only once against a sitting democrat, ever.

Most of the time it had to do with the fact that many of them were immigrants. And has the Jewish vote ever gone to Reps? Since 1916 the vast majority of the Jewish vote went to the Dems except for the 1920 election when 43% voted for Harding, 19% for the Dem Cox, and 38% for the Socialist, Eugene Debs. Obama got 78% and 69% of the Jewish vote in his two elections.

So why the animus towards Catholics?

The Catholic denomination is a church denomination, not a race, and the fact that Hispanic Catholics are flooding america, won’t change the Catholic vote, it will remain democrat.

The Hispanic vote will remain Dem. The white Catholic vote went for Romney and McCain in 2012 and 2008 respectively. Race and ethnicity trump voting in terms of the Catholic vote.

Your passionate pro-immigration, pro-democrat, pro-liberal, pro-Catholic vote defense, is baffling.

LOL. You are certifiable. I have said just the opposite. Give me some examples where I am any of those.
