The problem for me is that the vast majority of Americans don’t want amnesty. Yet both parties pander to the Latino vote. Do the parties represent Americans, or are illegal aliens more important.

Heck, a lot of Latinos don't want amnesty!

Amnesty is really more pandering to public employee unions and the chamber of commerce, actually.

It’s pointless to go after the Latinos.

They will vote for the party that offers them the most handouts. PERIOD.

When hard-working citizens get tired of paying for other peoples’ way, they will become more conservative.

"Yet both parties pander to the Latino vote."

Yet many Latinos do NOT support illegal immigration.

The GOP shouldn’t pander but it should reach out to legal hispanics so they don’t become a defacto wing of the DNC as blacks have
