Bye Bye Blue Wave: GOP doing just fine in Hispanic Neighborhoods

FreeAndClear · 2018-07-09T22:34:49.168Z

You say that a lot lately on these boards. I am not sure if it’s meant to be dismissive or “agree to disagree” or something else. I am just curious

Making a mountain out of a mole hill?

Nope stating a fact. Hispanics don’t vote republican in Dover.

That is a fact.

And that is not the truth.

The truth is the wet foot (deportation back to Cuba) and dry foot (legal)
Was the policy from 1995-2016.

And as yogi says you can look it up.

Pretty sure he was referring to legal hispanics.

Not really… There are always Cubans that I can rely on for my point about illegals eventually voting for the GOP.

Careful… If you ever prove your point, libs will lock that border down faster than you can say “ripped-away-from-their-mothers-breast”

biggestal99 · 2018-07-10T11:40:06.929Z

those are legal hispanic votes.

Dover is 70% hispanic, those are legal votes

238-6

it was close.

“Illegal immigration wreaks havoc economically, socially, and culturally; makes a mockery of the rule of law; and is disgraceful just on basic fairness grounds alone.”

“When I see Mexican flags waved at proimmigration demonstrations, I sometimes feel a flush of patriotic resentment. When I’m forced to use a translator to communicate with the guy fixing my car, I feel a certain frustration.”

Great read thanks. Especially the part where “the dems convinced themselves.” Agree with that wholeheartedly the Dems have no chance of keeping the hispanic vote long term even if they see short term gains due to amnesty.

But thanks for putting some things in perspective. Really is a good article

I am truly glad you liked it.

I know you believe this with all your being.

It just is not so. There is a balance to accepting legal immigration and not being the dumping ground of the worlds excess population.

Congress needs to get busy and quit blaming.

Good stuff.

Academics face cultural pressures too. In his book Exodus, Paul Collier, an economist at the University of Oxford, claims that in their “desperate [desire] not to give succor” to nativist bigots, “social scientists have strained every muscle to show that migration is good for everyone.” George Borjas of Harvard argues that since he began studying immigration in the 1980s, his fellow economists have grown far less tolerant of research that emphasizes its costs. There is, he told me, “a lot of self-censorship among young social scientists.” Because Borjas is an immigration skeptic, some might discount his perspective. But when I asked Donald Davis, a Columbia University economist who takes a more favorable view of immigration’s economic impact, about Borjas’s claim, he made a similar point. “George and I come out on different sides of policy on immigration,” Davis said, “but I agree that there are aspects of discussion in academia that don’t get sort of full view if you come to the wrong conclusion.”

Like health care the true cost is hidden as the funding might go into hypershock if revealed.

and then in 2020 when the dems have the senate and white house the court will be 9-7 liberals

Yeah yeah yeah. Just another reason why you and your kind should never again regain power.

National Journal: GOP Reps. Doing Well in Latino Districts | Breitbart

Another torn reality when Deranged Democrats wake up and learn the GOP has a super majority.

Precisely because the Immigration Issue won it for them

Har de har har!

I’m sure they know Trump tried to make a deal with dems. But dems didn’t want to fix anything.

Well, this thread didn’t age well.

It aged perfectly

Main idea of this article: GOP candidates are doing better than expected. Not better than Dems.

BTW, National Journal is not a periodical like National Review. National Journal is a company whose mission is to “help members achieve their advocacy goals by identifying key influencer networks surrounding specific policy issues,” which means they get paid to find research that supports whatever cause you are supporting.

If dems paid them, they’d find positive info for dems.

I would take it with a grain of salt.
