If we amnesty these illegals it is simply going to add millions of Democrats to the voter rolls. These Hispanics (mostly Mexicans) are natural Democrat voters. Mexico is a socialist craphole and the people there mostly keep voting for the same collectivist parties and politicians. When they become American citizens they retain the same voting patterns.
I agree with most of your insightful post. I disagree with your thinking Rubio's intentions are "good." Rubio knows exactly how the RATS operate and what the result of Amnesty will be. Rubio cannot be that naive. I think what Rubio is doing is devious and ultimately highly destructive. He may naively think that somehow he can convince the newly "minted" RAT voters to vote for him because he can say, "Hey, I am hispanic too."
That will never happen. The mindset of the illegals that are here will guarantee the RATS that at least 80% of these illegals will forever vote for the RAT party.
The culture of most of the illegals is to view the State as a positive source of goods and services. They do not have a culture of respecting individual rights and the rule of law, much less the belief in limited government.
Rubio will be just as guilty as the evil left if they succeed in driving amnesty forward.
Vitter is right on the money.
Then I guess you think that Reagan is evil then..
