Poll: Latino voters overwhelmingly support Obama
The Hill ^ | March 5, 2012 | Jonathan Easley

Latino voters overwhelmingly support President Obama over any of the potential GOP candidates, according to a Fox News Latino poll released on Monday.

In a head-to-head match-up against President Obama, none of the Republican candidates polled hire than 14 percent among Latinos.

Additionally, 73 percent said they approved of the job the president has been doing, well above Gallup’s national average of 45 percent. And 58 percent said they approved of the president’s handling of the economy, which is by far the most important issue in the 2012 election.

Obama also wins a plurality among Latinos that supported Sen. John McCain (R-Ari.) in 2008, with 40 percent saying they would not vote for a Republican candidate again in 2012.

The Republican candidates have sometimes taken positions during the primaries that have turned off Latino voters.

Both GOP frontrunners, Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum, are on record as being against the DREAM Act, which would provide a path to citizenship for the children of illegal immigrants born in the U.S., and which 90 percent of Latino voters say they support.

And this pretty much says it all....illegal immigration is fine as long as it’s their ethnicity

The undoing of the country......some groups will not wake up until it’s too late

This poll in totally wacked.

Impossible. This would mean Latinos vote 180 degrees opposite of the population at large. Unless, for some unforeseen reason employment numbers are great for hispanics and their wages are higher than before, this is simply impossible.

So how has all of that kowtowing to the pro-illegals crowd worked out for the GOP?

First thing about this is that it proves Latinos are not assimilating well.

I suggest the solution to their problem is to return to their own countries.

Mexican voters and drug money are the reasons for the failure to stop the Mexican influx. These corrupt Democrats will run the risk of a Mexican “reconquista” to obtain permanent office.

Well, whoda thunk?

Just like the Black vote; they vote for their own benefits (we give these foreigners/usurpers/criminals) food stamps, EBT's, EITC, free education, Drivers' Licenses, the right to openly complain about their "treatment", and why do you think the Holder Gang and Sebilius announced proudly that ICE would not allow enforcement and deportation? Hint: Illegals can't vote from Mexico, but they fight voter ID so they can continue to vote for even MORE handouts, right here!

This is a joke, and the taxpayers and those who are personally responsible people are being shit on at every turn.

A revolution is in order, and is coming sooner than they think.

They want America to be like Mexico and other 3rd world countries I suppose. Why else would they support him.

"The undoing of the country......some groups will not wake up until it’s too late"

The Crusades was a perfect example of never willing to wake up. When Islam kept destroying entire towns and villages and killed or enslaved everyone. Then the Crusaders kept coming from western countries in order to help defend the Christians. The Barons of the areas in the East would fight amongst themselves and not against their real threat.

If they did unit they would most likely held their ground.

Real crusades is very good stuff:
