Just out of curiosity, what was the party affiliation of the president who twisted arms to get the necessary votes? And this was the same president who voted it into law?

Point is that this act and the affiliated party colored the voting behavior of minorities in this country.

Typically the immigrant population is very conservative but if the GOP seems hateful in its approach to immigration reform, the risk is the same.

It is? Since when... and since when has respect for law and order been viewed as “hateful”?

These people march in our streets with their country’s flag and DEMAND of us. They have “brown berets” and organizations like La Raza. That’s “hateful”, if anything is. Any political party that panders to illegal aliens is not a party I care to support.

Kennedy was for it, Johnson was not, though he did sign it.

My point was it is widely misconstrued that the demomcRATs passed the CRA when they did not. It was passed by Republicans in spite of the fact that it was filibustered by dems Al Gore Sr. and Robert KKK Byrd.
