Hispanics equal about 13% of the US population but 40% of the foreclosures.

That doesn't make the 40% all illegals. Many "hispanics" are citizens. However, the overall number makes sense, since the lenders were being pushed specifically to give loans to unqualified *minorities,* not white people.

Nor Asians. Don't forget that Asians don't count as minorities because they are hard working, self-sufficient, and don't 'need' government handouts to succeed.
