They would have called Obama a racist and would have just stayed home and not bothered to vote at all if they thought that Barack Hussein Obama was going to politically get in bed with groups like the Minutemen.
Officially hispanic support for Obama was above 75%, the result a hispanic supreme court judge, and an upcoming amnesty.
The lesson is quite clear; whoever wants to win national elections better get the important hispanic vote, or else........

If not pandering to people who wont learn the language makes one "out of step" that's cool with me.
Part of the Natrualization Process has always been a working understanding of the English Language.

While I've always welcomed LEGAL Immigrants with open arms, they can damn well learn the language.

Since this thread's been resurrected, I'll tell ya how Nashville's "English-only" proposal went--

it failed. Not surprisingly, the Hispanic community and business community came out against it and threatened boycotts of buisness if it passed, consequently, many businesses' knees buckled and they came out against it.

Business as usual in Music Citay...

Like I mentioned above, we live a new political reality in the usa, hispanics are a huge unified group that will sway elections one way or the other, and politicians are already aware of this fact....

Not here in Arizona: so-called 'Hispanic' power is waning as more and more illegals are being run off. Losing 30-50% of the above criminals tends to weaken one's base of support.

Too: many Americans of 'Hispanic' lineage are quite anti illegal immigration to boot.

well illegals don't vote anyways so they as a constituency don't matter to most politicians. Most hispanics in Florida are legal ( Cuban, Puerto rican, Brazilians, Argentinians) and we fought this English only non sense in Miami over 30 years ago and it lost too. I usually don't come to this forum since it is titled ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION but threads like these just proves how this sub forum is just an excuse to bash hispanics of any kind which is kind of insulting since I'm a hispanic who happened to be born here.
Nevertheless I'll let y'all get back to your racist prejudist views. Tata!
