So why did 79% of the Hispanics who participated in this poll vote to reelect Obama in 2012?
Obama has done NOTHING to secure the border.
Obama has ALWAYS supported a pathway to citizenship for the 12 million illegals.
Obama has ALWAYS supported our current policy of 1 million guest worker visas.
And, Obama has NEVER supported a reduction in LEGAL immigration (more than 1 million per year) or a reduction in new citizens (more than 750,000 per year).
Mitt Romney's immigration policy in 2012 was completely in line with a majority of the Hispanic voters who participated in this poll, but only 21% of them supported Romney 2012.
I think this poll simply reflects the sudden POLITICAL anxiety of the Hispanic community about well publicized immigrant crimes, and about the well publicized impact of massive immigration on wages and jobs for home grown Americans.
Most of the Hispanics in this poll are suddenly in favor of the completely bogus Republican policy of “securing our borders” and “no path citizenship.”
But in 2016, 70% of Hispanics will still support the Democrat nominee.
Unfortunately most ‘Hispanics’ support all the other planks of the democratic party platform for cultural and economic reasons.
Look at the counties from which they come and the current trending opposition to assimilation and towards multi-cultural tribalism promoted and in many cases demanded by the left who have labed assimilation and melting pot ‘offensive’ concepts.
As if theses new comers are better than our forefathers, and deserve to carve out their own country inside of ours rather than integrate with us. Thou out human history there has always been a word for that sort of person ‘el invasor’ or Invader in English.
We need to point out this elitism on their part, and the inviolability of a multicultural society by example of the conflicts that already exist among the defined ‘ethic’ group of today.
