I have to say that like Domergurl I am having difficulty understanding where you are going. But more importantly, you do not make it clear in your posts who you are quoting or what is a quote and what are your words (alone).
Can you please take a little more time with your posts, so that those of us interested in the subject can participate with more clarity.

Many thanks.
All the quotes are T.R. and Woodrow Wilson.
And yes the cubans do tend to steal.I lived in hialeah and had never been anywhere else in the world where even your mailbox must be bared down ,even your ac unit must have bars on it .And i press you to find any where in the u.s. where there is so much stolen property reported every year.My wife is cuuban from cuba moved to hialeah after 12 years and she agrees with me.As a matter of fact after meeting her in gainesville b4 moiving to miami she and her family warned me .She was right .Take all the offense you want but it true and you know it.

I don't live in Florida. I have never lived in Florida. I can't however condone what you are inferring.
I have many Cuban friends, and I would never, never characterize them the way you are here.

Cubans can stay once they touch dry land.It is called the wet foot dry foot act .It was made because of when kenedy promised the cuban revulition in the 70 s that we would back it up with the military ,and we did not .their fighters were slaughtered and to make up for it the govt.said if you can make it here you can have assylum.Time has passed lets revoke it!
Getting rid of the embargo is a more important priority.
You say "The Hispanic group is now the largest minority group in USA; they represent all of Central/South America."Then they are not Americans and need to leave.
Again you a missing the point, we are a country of immigrants. Our roots will take us back all over the world .
The meaning of my statement is the origin or roots of all the Hispanic group are from Central/South America, but I should add the Caribbean and Spain.

Many Latin Americans have roots in Africa and in other European countries, even Asia and the Middle East. "Latino" is a cultural term, and "Hispanic" as the US government uses it means someone from a Spanish speaking Latin American country. For example,the US government does not consider people from Spain to be "Hispanics" because they're from Europe, while someone of German or Eastern European ancestry who is from South America is considered a "Hispanic".

Actually, it's not "all over the world" as you may think.
Up until the passing of the 1965 immigration act this country was overwhelmingly (over ninety percent) White and European.
So, the whole myth about being the world over, etc etc is just that.. a myth.

Except a German or Italian from Southern Brazil or Argentina is not sneaking under the fence to come pick lettuce and join MS-13. They are probably staying in their countries. Southern Brazil, Argentina, and Uruguay, contrary to popular belief, are actually very "White."

"Contrary to popular belief"?It's pretty well known that Argentina is the "whitest" country outside of Europe (and certainly has fewer nonwhites than the UK or France do). The average American thinks of Argentines and Uruguayans as being like Spaniards or Italians - and given that the majority of the population of those countries is of either Spanish or Italian descent, they have a point.
Brazilians do emigrate to the US, but they don't bring their country's (very real) problems with crime and extremism with them. It's pretty rare to find anyone in the US complaining about Brazilian immigrants.
BTW, there is a pretty large emigration of Colombian and Venezuelan "whites" to the USA going on right now, due to the situation in those countries.
I'd quote TR before I would quote Wilson.While by the standards of today TR would be considered a racist, he would not have been considered to be one in his time.Wilson, OTOH,would have been considered a racist even in his day;he segregated government jobs and openly praised the KKK

Bingo!!
