History has proven otherwise. <br /><br />While we're on that point, I think it's safe to say that no other state in the union has been more accomodating towards our friends to the south than California.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26188478.post-55524192157571962562009-05-15T11:19:00.000-07:002009-05-15T11:19:00.000-07:00Jim Bowery:

Neocons are basically saying that they have to hand out US territory to foreigners because that way their coethnic citizens will vote for the Neocons. This is basically saying that those ethnics are attempting a land-grab from our nation -- which is not distinguished from other nations by being "a nation of immigrants". Such land-grabs may be carried out by any of a number of ruses but the bottom line is that those who give aid and comfort to the enemy are traitors.Jim Boweryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12686155123469135528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26188478.post-81207380741191430212009-05-15T09:40:00.000-07:002009-05-15T09:40:00.000-07:00...

A lot of them were blue collar types, so they might even have been part of the Reagan Democrat cohort. Immigration was not even an issue in the 1980 election.<br /><br />Nowadays, thanks to 30 years of large scale, almost out of control immigration, most Hispanics are either immigrants themselves or their first generation offspring. Let's also not forget that something like 1/3 of the Hispanic population is made up of illegal aliens, so if you're Hispanic it's almost a certainty that you fall into one of three categories: you're illegal yourself, you have a close relative who is, or you know someone who is. If you're a citizen and eligible to vote, are you going to vote for a guy who promises to kick your cousin/parent/friend out? Not likely.<br /><br />We have probably already passed the tipping point. Hispanics will at some point in the near future have sufficient numbers to kill any sort of legislation that would cut down on illegal immigration, and along with that any caps on legal immigration will probably be blown away. The shame of it is that as we become a Latin American country, our society, our politics, our economy, and our culture will begin to resemble Latin America's. Having spent considerable time in Mexico, Central and South America over a 20 year period doing business, I can tell you that a transformation in that direction will not be an improvement.Sgt.
