Note how after REagan gave amnesty in 1986 the Hispanic vote didn’t “come home” to Republicans. Something for Hannity to think about!

Is there any data out there that breaks these numbers down by income. I am curious to see how much economic situation impacts this. If it is skewed heavily to the lower income brackets, we know it is about government handouts. If it is consistent at all incomes, we likely can come to a different conclusion.

I’m not seeing it, unless there is a highly visible Hispanic Republican who can “change minds” that taking from the government is NOT a good thing.

So just keep letting them in, give them amnesty, keep paying for those benefits and anchor babies.

Sheer genius.

Pretty convincing numbers. Reagan got nothing for his compromise. If Republicans fall for compromising on amnesty now, they just guarantee Democrat majorities forever more. Seems like the press has brought us one party rule. I guess the framers could not expect the first amendment would ultimately fail because the entire media would become corrupt.

Would someone please explain to me why I should care one whit whom illegal aliens, or their citizen relatives want to vote for to negate my vote.

My ancestors have lived in America long before it became the United States of America and now so-called political gurus wish to convince me that how illegal aliens' potential voting should move me to allow them to be given amnesty and citizenship so more of my country may become Mexico!

When HELL freezes over!

The Mexican vote is irrelevant.

For 2012, these were the totals:

Total 132,948
White, non-Hispanics 98,041
Blacks 17,813
Asians 3,904
Hispanics 11,188

Just under 33 million are all the people who can be reliably counted on to vote for someone who wants to dismember the country.

If you get 67% of the White vote, you win. And this data is from a year when 2 million less White voters came out then did in 2008: Romney was that bad.

And of the 33 million non-non-hispanic whites, what groups are rabid about more immigration? Only the Hispanics (so they can increase their power) and the Asians (for the same reason).

Blacks are only hurt by immigration. Mexicans take their jobs, and Asians won't give them any. Those jobs go to other Asians.

So there's really no point marketing to "hispanics" - people from Spain or it's decrepit former empire - when you stand to lose a big fraction of us "non-hispanic whites" as us Americans are now referred to.

Trump should focus on Americans and try to peel off just a few percentage points from Blacks by pointing out how worthless the Rats have been to them. Basically try to minimize the damage from them.

That will push his percentage of Whites north of 70% and maybe add a couple of points to the overall total from Blacks. He will get only token support from the Cuban and assimilated Mexican voters. But that will be enough: he can win with a 10% margin.

PS: if he brings out 2 million more Whites again who voted in 2008, he doesn't even need the pandering vote.
