1) I heard Rush say that he is considering producing a Spanish version of his show. YES! He should. I used to have a Costa Rican worker who was very conservative and was a proud new citizen. She would listen to the news while she worked and we would discuss it in Spanglish as I drove her home. Although she was conservative, she got entirely the wrong impression from Spanish radio and Spanish TV as to what had happened during certain events.

2) I forgot my other point! LOL.

2) Now I remember. I was on a tour to China in 1983. There was a Mexican family on the same tour, and the father of the family (who was a wealthy industrialist) shed tears over the work that he saw the Chinese doing. (We were required to tour Chinese factories for the privilege of touring the country in those days.) According to the Mexican, there are millions of his countrymen who could do this work but the government just throws roadblocks in their way.

I live in Arizona --have for a long while. Arizona has traditionally been about 70% Euro blood lines, 28% Mexican and 2% other. It's been a red state forever. A great place to live.

Why has a state that has been 1/2 Mexican been able to resist leftism with a huge Mexican population if the Republican platform is so abrasive to other cultures?

It's because that is not true. What has changed is the educational system and the popular culture who now tells these Mexican immigrants that they are victims of a white man, the R party, conservatism, etc. (among other things they are now learning from the left)

Not Mexican but an immigrant from South American country of Bolivia and I am 100% tea party.

unfortunately the majority of the Mexican people that come over to the United States, they're already marginalized in their own country. They don't have very much education and they believe that the government is the only source of wealth.

Amen. Its not so much about "immigration" - its that most Latinos who come to the USA are pickled in class-warfare rhetoric from their own societies and Gov'ts of their home countries. This doesn't disappear very quickly in the next generation either.

It’s not just Hispanics…my 150% American wife of Thai origin lives and breathes family, religion and work. She gets upset listening to Obama talk because he talks a Pathet Lao insurgent.

I heard this guy. Undoubtedly he comes from the educated class of Mexico. He was smart and spoke good English. The illegal and legal Mexicans who get here and are Indian or semi-Indian...they are the ones with poor or nonexistent educations and who vote Democrat and who burden our welfare systems

The man might be working if he can find it. He and the woman will vote Democrat. The woman and kids will get all they can out of our various welfare syatems
