Plus Hispanics may become more Protestant, which could move them to the GOP.
George W. got 56% of their vote in 2004 and Obama only got 52% of their vote in 2008.
Bush got more like 44 percent of the Hispanic vote in 2004, and that is probably more of a stretch than Eisenhower’s high estimate of 47 percent of the black vote in 56.
Keep dreaming. Hispandering is not going to get more Hispanic voters to the Republicans. This is shameful and is what the Democrats do. They go around to every ehnic group trying to make them believe that they are special and will get special treatment if they vote for the Democrats. Well, everybody can’t be special! Instead of kissing up to people we need to appeal to their hard headed common sense. Appeal to the hard working people be they white, Hispanic, black, Asian whatever. Tell them that the government steals their money and throws it away on garbage. Tell them that every man woman and child owes $40,000 to the government. This appeals to everyone who is honest and works hard. Instead of doing this the Republicans are trying to kiss up to various groups, the way the Dems do.
I think it would be a good idea for Republicans to buy ads on ethnic radio shows explaining what the Republicans believe and telling them about how the government should be responsible with the hard working people’s money. Do not refer to their ethnicity, do not pander or promise them special favors (amnesty etc.), just tell them that the government owes them honesty with their hard earned tax dollars. Immigrants come from countries that do not have the blessings of a long history of republican tradition. They need to be taught the basics about the covenant between the people and their government. Republicans should use every occasion to educate immigrants in simple language. The Dems do everything they can to dumb down the voters including the immigrants, so we have to educate them.
About Hispanics becoming more Protestant—have you heard of Rev. Samuel Rodriguez? He is a silver-tongued evagelical who just goes around preaching the gospel of amensty. It is sickening to hear him, he goes on the 700 Club, on Focus on the Family and he speaks to Baptist leader Richard Land and what does he talk about—amnesty, amnesty, amnesty. I swear he is a New World Order plant from the CFR and Pat Robertson, Focus on the Family and Richard Land just eat it up.
Our country is being colonized by a foreign country and our so-called Christian leaders are just thrilled about it.
