I agree with everything you said except this: “The hispanic issue is RIPE for moving into the red. Catholic, family oriented cultures who beleive in being left alone and naturally distrust the government.”
The Mexicans I know are very happy with the Left and free stuff! They work under the table, carry wads of cash and pay NO income taxes. They get housing assistance, electric assistance, food stamps, free educations and free medical care and Obamaphones, yet they hate America.
They open illegal businesses and get away with breaking our laws because no one will enforce the laws. They are a protected group and above the laws that you and I are subject to.
Catholic? Not so much, in name only. Family yes. They will not go red in any sense of the word. They know where their bread is buttered. They will never go conservative and the democrats know it.
Republicans need to wake the heck up and insist on enforcing immigration laws and mandatory IDs at the voting booth. They are cutting their own throats by thinking hispanics will vote for them. It just isn’t going to happen.
West Coast or SW Border?
See post #14. Hispanics, legal and illegal, rival blacks in dropout rates, abortion rates and out of wedlock birth. They show up at the Catholic church for social services and charity, period.
