Absolutely! And, that may even be a conservative estimate. I bet if we offered amnesty, at least 40 million would apply.

Including those who hopped across the border as soon as it was declared, complete with faked documents proving they've been here at least 5 years

I think they need to offer amnesty as a trap, and when they are all lined up, arrest em, load em up and ship em home!

LOL, I've actually thought about that as an option - declare amnesty, wait for them all to file and then go "oops, sorry, our bad"

If we could see massive deportations or self deportations Latinos would never become the majority in this country overall.

Another determining factor would be changing birthright citizenship.
You may be right but the individual you replied to posted census data, what your claim to disprove him? Take care.

Census data includes citizens, legal immigrants and illegal aliens of any particular group. Eliminate the illegal alien numbers included in Hispanic growth and you would find that Hispanics don't have near the numbers they like to boast about.
