My new son-in-law’s parents are Cuban-American refugees living in Miami. They are highly successful professionals and the father is a small business owner of about 30 years. They remain staunch Catholics and Republican voters.

My son-in-law is their youngest child and is 35. Don’t know if that qualifies as a younger voter but he, his older brother, and their friends are all Libertarians. As far as I know they did not vote at all in this last election. They’ve expressed strong distrust of both Democrats and Republicans believing the parties are more alike than different. Can’t say how significant this is regarding young Cuban Americans as a group but it is another view.

When I lived in Miami all the Cubans I knew loved Reagan.

Colombians were fairly rightwing too....Nicas and Guats and Salvadorans

but I knew the whiter property folks who had been victims of the brown insurgencies and lost land or holding s that had been in their families for centuries

and they knew what time it was

now...we are gonna learn what they already know

I was married to a Brasilian (ex...gorgeous but quad-polar...like a cat on acid)...they as rule are less culturally conservative...and there are more of them now in Florida and it hurts

anyhow...latinos are not all the same but the leftist ones with a broken culture are the vast majority

Cubans are like Jews...they only matter(vote wise) in South Florida..and that is diminishing for both

the real meat is the Mexicans and it’s a long shot...their culture is almost as destructive stats wise as tropical african culture here...out of wedlock and crime and vote fradu etc

i know some old Seguin type Texicans are as conservative as a west Texas farmer but sadly they are now throwbacks and not many in numbers (Bush never got that 40%...that was a rove lie)

*after Southern gals, Colombian are my favorite...I will give Rubio that

That is how the left is destroying conservatism, in the past those people would have been conservatives, but the left's control of education and culture has turned them into liberals, except for taxes and economics.

Today you have the left, then the libertarian liberals who share economic interests with the GOP, and then conservatives in the true American tradition, before the 1960s.
