As long as they don't use the idiotic American term "caucasian." This is a stupid word based on junk science. What is wrong with "European American" or "white?"

You can make a very convincing argument the most Latin American countries are western. Indeed, the right wing dictatorships in the 1950s-1980s used to say they were defending "western Christian civilization" NOT "indigenismo."

None of this changes the fact that the GOP is toast unless it appeals to a broader base. Whining about changing demographics is stupid and pointless when it has already happened. You can deport all the illegals you want, but this does not change the fact that Asians and Latinos (who are of many races themselves, including WHITE, btw) are a bigger share of the electorate in the larger states, and will only grow even if all illegals were deported tomorrow.

Whining

What "whining" have I done?

No, the Asian population is plummeting even more rapidly than the Caucasian [white, whatever] population - nihilism is even stronger in the Asian community than among Blue State Caucasians.

And to a certain extent, "WHITE" hispanics [especially Cuban refugees] are not our big problem here - it's the aboriginal/mestizo hispanics who will be the final nail in our coffin.

Changing demographics are a fact that must be dealt with. The first thing one needs to find a solution is to identify the problem. Ther real question is how do you appeal to a "braoder base" without compromising your principles by pandering to those you are trying to attract. The Reps lose when they play identity politics. They can't match the Dems in that regard

We not only have to secure our borders and establish a system to track and deport visa overstays, we need to address our pro-population growth immigration policies that are not serving the interests of this nation. We don't need 1.2 million legal immigrantts a year. We need a pro-immigrant low immigration policy.
