Probably Hispanic men who have had a taste of American freedoms and possibilities; and who probably suffered a lot during the past six years.
(I believe that many of the African Americans will be waking up, as well; in fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of what happened in the election is precisely because the enterprising Black folks have been hurt the most by the state of our economy!)
I’ve been thinking that the liberal dems and radicals have never really understood what they’ve been dealing with. They seem to live in their own very insular world, without any real understanding of the populace they are attempting to manipulate.
Americans are unlike any other people in the world; and we are generous, open-minded, and easy-going, for the most part.
We will take a lot of crap, in the interest of being fair and egalitarian. But there comes a point where we say, “Thus far, and no further!”
I believe that this is what held sway, in the recent election.

Insightful comment Jamestown...
Now your getting a better picture of Texas Hispanics. Not the propaganda spewed by Battleground Texas that wants you to believe the illegals will overwhelm Texas and turn it blue in the coming years.
Hispanic families are nothing new. They have been living here for generations along with other ethnicities since Texas was founded. They are native born Texans that live, work, and share in the spirit of Texas. Many have successful businesses, professional jobs and skills, and political appointments.
I think most Hispanics do not act, think, and to be honest respect the low information government plantation voters that we see in the major blue cities across America including Texas. Texas has its share of cities and border counties that are pockets of blue, but I think any shift will be toward red rather than blue in the near future, especially if the voter-id law prevails.
And, there have always been illegals in Texas and most have come for the chance to work and better their lives. Those that come for other reasons will not be as happy in Texas as say, California or some other liberal state. We have jobs in Texas and they can work if they have good skills. The rest is up to them. Many will stay and grow roots in Texas and become Texans.
I am proud to be a native born Texan of Celtic decent and I love and respect my fellow Texans of Hispanic and other ethnic backgrounds and shared values. Together we are proud to be living in the greatest state in the greatest nation of the world.
G_D bless Texas!
