Good! George P. Bush is an excellent, genuinely conservative person and I think it’s extremely important to make it clear that not everybody in the GOP hates Hispanics. I saw a GOP candidate send two Hispanic women out of his fundraising meeting in tears. These were well-dressed women from Miami who, judging by their accents, were American born and brought up, but had Spanish last names and dark hair - and he launched into a tirade against Hispanics, something he would never have done discussing blacks, Chinese or any other group.

We need to get a grip on this.

I don’t know of anyonbe in the GOP who hates hispanics. Perhaps you need to choose a better set of friends.

I don’t vote for people based on any criteria except those related to the convictions they demonstrate; their sex, religion, national origin, or race have no impact whatsoever on my decision.

What? We should now embrace identity politics like the Rats? No, thanks.

What's his name and what did he say? I see no reason to keep it private.

As an Hispanic (or 1/2 anyway) I think it's important that conservative, Constitutional values are presented to and taught to all Americans. Looking at demographics, it makes since for conservatives to target specific groups just like liberals are wont to do. Conservatives should have an outreach campaign to newly naturalized citizens. Let them know that most conservatives are not racists and that they are just trying to make sure the gov’t lives by the founding documents that these people have just studied. Large groups of conservatives together tend to be welcoming and it's good for Hispanics to see that since the liberals have been telling us all our lives that Republicans hate Hispanics and they can pull tons of comments in and out of context to bolster this view. I was having a discussion about this with 2 Hispanic ladies at work when my worst client, an Obama-worshipping bitch of a college prof, printed off page after page of comments from conservative sites and made sure to highlight the many, many racist comments. Please, please, please fellow conservatives, reach out and help these misled people understand that liberals lie and our Republic is a beautiful thing that must be protected at all costs. Most have been publically educated and poisoned by the liberal education fascists.
