GOP must find a way to appeal to Hispanics generally

Post by tector »

By "Hispanics generally" I mean other than those that fled Communism (Cubans, Venezuelans, Nicaraguans)--those are generally only a factor here in Florida. Glad we have them.

Meanwhile, very worrisome trends elsewhere. Look at this article about Texas:

https://www.texastribune.org/2019/06/20 ... residents/

"The gap between Texas’ Hispanic and white populations continued to narrow last year when the state gained almost nine Hispanic residents for every additional white resident.

With Hispanics expected to become the largest population group in Texas as soon as 2022, new population estimates released Thursday by the U.S. Census Bureau showed the Hispanic population climbed to nearly 11.4 million — an annual gain of 214,736 through July 2018 and an increase of 1.9 million since 2010."

The GOP can't win a Presidential election without both Texas and Florida, since the Dems now have NY and CA seemingly locked up forever.

Demographics are destiny.

Ok, but how many of them are citizens? Maybe there should be a question about that on the next census....

Is this person a CITIZEN?
Because only United States of America citizens, natural born or naturalized should count for the purpose of distributing House Representatives and Electoral College votes.

Sadly some states are giving drivers licenses to illegals. Then they have a legal ID and that opens many other doors for them. Our own poorer citizens can't always get the government services they need(health care for example) but we let illegals have health care and allow their kids to go to public schools which puts a strain on services and costs everyone with more taxes and fees(everyone but the illegals).
If they keep giving them these things, we'll have them voting next.

Hispanics will start voting republican when Blacks turns conservative...
... And that is scheduled to happen sometimes after the 12th of never.

The problem is not and has never been illegals. The problem is that since the immigration act of 1965, 90 millions foreigners from the third world (and their offspring) who do not share White European culture, values and religion have poured legally in the US and were granted citizenship.

California is exactly what America's future looks like. Ocasio Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib and their entire electorates of "paper americans" (yes they are LEGAL citizens!) are what your future looks like. And that is why both gun control and socialism are inescapable.

Immigration is war and these people did not come here to join you, they came here to conquer you. You have been invaded and you did not even put up a fight. Congratulations to White Americans on managing to turn themselves into the new Indians in their own country. And delusional boomers will go to their graves still clueless about identity politics and in denial of the key role they held in the destruction of their own nation.

On the bright side we now have evidence that pouring millions upon millions of third worlders into a western country does not westernize them but instead changes the first world hosting country into a certifiable shit hole. "Magic Dirt Fail" is what they will write on America' tombstone.

Exactly, great post.

The only thing that I do see a little differently is that I am starting to see more African Americans leaning towards conservative ideals., if it will be enough I doubt it.

Also the older Cubans who knew and experienced socialism will continue to vote with conservatives, the problem I see is the newer generation of voting Americans, especially the Cubans have nothing to compare their lives too like their grandparents so follow the socialist agenda without hesitation.

i think instead of waiting for the GOP to do something, we should engage hispanics as individuals. my wife is puerto rican and is 100% Conservative. she talks to other hispanics and friends and family in a way they can relate to and understand. sometimes it is as simple as giving people the correct facts while not sounding like she is talking down to them. i also do the same. i have turned 2 hispanic families i work with into pro 2A and voting 2A just by answering questions and taking them to ranges, gun shows and even just going to a gun shop. sometimes people just need a guiding hand. if we can reach one person and they reach another person, we can grow.

Seems like some are hiding crimes by immigrants.
