Republicans are replacing Dems across the country? I don't think so. If anything, the reverse is true.

Yeah no doubt when it comes to elected office. However, population and demographics are not in the Republicans favor. Losing the popular vote over and over eventually will catch up.

California attracts too many government-dependent immigrants.
I concur, and I'll add that most of these immigrants aren't from England, Ireland or Germany, either.

In 1700 we were also primarily an agrarian country and riding around on horses. Should we go back to that also?


Also, I find it amusing that you chose to ignore the ~20% of the country in those days that were African. Should we allow immigration from West Africa?
