Of course Latinos like most other minority groups are usually Democrats anyway because they like the social policies of that party. I doubt that it would make much difference if the Republicans became pro-amnesty. Latinos would still favor the Democrat party.
What social policies? You mean fiscal policies? Because blacks and Hispanics are mostly socially conservative (blacks being against LGBT rights but for abortion, Hispanics generally being against both) but they sure like their welfare, and they are both generally for gun control.
I don't know why Obama says he's willing to work with Republicans to secure the border, and enforce the law. What's to 'work with'? It's the law, enforce it. It's the border, secure it.
he can't...
illegals are ineligible to vote or hold office---and the Imposter-in-Chief would have to relinguish his position...

"They sure like their welfare?" What are you talking about? Who? Who are you? Where are you from?
Excellent post! Hispanics need to choose between being Americans and respecting our immigration laws or choosing to put their illegal ethnic kind above our laws. You're right! They need to pick a side! Many of them have already chosen the latter, unfortunately. Note this excerpt from the article.
"He points out more than 20 percent of the electorate in California is made up by Latinos, and this effort will only push them farther away from the party. "Latinos should be with the Republicans based on the Republican stance on lower taxes, boosting small business, respect for family values, " says Klink, "and this initiative does exactly the opposite, it turns them off."
It turns them off? Why does the enforcement of our immigration laws, turn them off?
I don't think you can choose to be an American. That's something that just has to come to you. Can you imagine an illegal immigration trying to switch from being a La Raza-loving, Reconquista type to an "American?" LOL Wouldn't work.
since when are hispanics putting their illegal ethnic kind above the laws?
i didnt know being hispanics meant they had one mega brain...

Such a law might pass, if a climate of fear and hostility such as that which gave rise to the passage of the aptly named Proposition 187 existed. Periods of economic crisis are conducive to such emotional sentiments among the general public, but overall, California is not as rightist a state as Arizona (which has non-enforcement of SB 1070 in a significant chunk of the state since essentially every single Indian tribe opposes it). A far more feasible alternative would be the passage of city or county wide measures in rightist strongholds such as Riverside County.

Why in the world would Indian tribes indigenous to our country oppose sb1070? They are afterall just as American as you or I.

I'm not the one you are replying to. But, to me, the largest and most obvious example would be La Raza.
