>> If you want to see how immigration impacts electoral politics, look no further than CA, which has the demographic profile today that the US will have in 2050. We are well on our way to the Dems being the permanent majority <<
Sure, if you’re ready to give up altogether. But when I see the success a Bobby Jindal or a Nikki Haley can have in Deep South states, I’m definitely not going to give up on the Asian vote.
And when I see how the western states can elect politicians like Sandoval, Martinez and Labrador, I can’t conclude that the Hispanic vote is a lost cost for the GOP.
So let’s agree amicably to disagree. You stay pessimistic, and I’ll be happily optimistic!
OK, but I will just say that I am realistic while you are delusional. Unless we change our immigration policies that bring in 1.2 million LEGAL IMMIGRANTS A YEAR, 87% of whom are minorities as classified by the USG, we are cutting our own throats.
57% of immigrant headed households with children are on welfare. This makes them the natural constituents of the Dems, the party of free stuff. Reality is a bitch. You can point out the exceptions but it is like the guy who when told he was losing 5 cents a widget, he responded, "Don't worry, I'll make it up in volume." Cheers.
