“Republican political consultants routinely argue that California’s Hispanics were driven from their natural Republican home by a 1994 voter initiative—backed by then-governor Pete Wilson, a Republican—denying most government benefits to illegal aliens. But it would be almost impossible today to find a Hispanic immigrant who has even heard of Proposition 187. Jim Tolle, pastor of one of the largest Hispanic churches in Southern California, La Iglesia En El Camino, says that his congregation knows nothing about Prop. 187.
“The fact is that Hispanic skepticism toward the Republican Party derives as much from its perceived economic biases as from Republicans’ opposition to illegal immigration and amnesty. A March 2011 poll by Moore Information asked California’s Latino voters why they had an unfavorable view of the Republican Party. The two top reasons were that the party favored only the rich and that Republicans were selfish and out for themselves; Republican positions on immigration law were cited less often.”
I have always surmised that the national total of "11 Million illegal aliens" so beloved of, and so frequently repeated by government statisticians accurately refers to the number of illegal Mexicans in LA County.
This also in: KB's handsome and accomplished Spanish Son-in-Law called in by school board to be offered a supervisory post. "Esperen un momento," said the resident Mexican Affirmative Action Illegal Anus, "He is not an "Hispanic!" No job for heen!
It seems there is "un problema de coloración." An "Hispanic" is apparently required to be the color of a brown paper shopping bag or better. That is, Americans of European ancestory need not apply.
