Hispanics rock..... lots of good friends of mine are Hispanic
Whites and blacks could learn alot from Hispanics.... like how to keep their families together in general
Yea right, like living 20 people in a two room apartment, collecting WIC, Section 8 housing, illegal tax
refunds while working for (under the table) cash. Not to mention 2 to3 hundred dollars per family, in
food stamps, 2 to 3 hundred dollars per anchor baby,,,,,,,

Or like the hispanic businessman and long-time friend of mine who runs 2 successful businesses, employs a few hundred with full benefit packages, travels to Europe annually with a large family, and enjoys fine dining. Wishes we had more upscale restaurants.
Sadly, California now has the lowest high school graduation rate in the country. If we continue to encourage the impoverished people of Mexico to come here, this dismal fact will remain true.
Not true. Nevada has the highest rate of high school dropouts, followed closely by DC and Mississippi. The study also shows that the graduation rate for Hispanic students has increased by 10 percentage points in the past 4 years.

And like how to break our immigration laws and arrogantly defend those who do based on like ethnicity (racism). Yeah, real morals and scruples there. A lot to be learned from them, lol. All the wrong things. How to blackmail our politicians into thumbing their noses at our immigration laws in exchange for their votes. How to insult Americans who merely want our immigration laws respected and enforced. The list goes on and on.
The U.S. Office of Management and Budget currently defines "Hispanic or Latino" as "a person of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, South or Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin, regardless of race".[30] The 2010 Census asked if the person was "Spanish/Hispanic/Latino". The United States Census uses the ethnonym Hispanic or Latino to refer to "a person of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin regardless of race."[31] The Census Bureau also explains that "[o]rigin can be viewed as the heritage, nationality group, lineage, or country of birth of the person or the person’s ancestors before their arrival in the United States. People who identify their origin as Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish may be of any race."[32]
As a result, any individual who traces his or her origins to part of the Spanish Empire or Portuguese Empire may self-identify as Hispanic, because an employer may not override an individual's self-identification.[3
Hey maybe those that live in former spanish areas can be hispanic too (im looking at you texas, new mexico, arizona, california, utah, etc.)
And the US population:
White 79.96%, Black 12.85%, Asian 4.43%, Amerindian and Alaska Native 0.97%, Native Hawaiian and other Pacific islanders 0.18%, two or more races 1.61% (July 2007 estimate) (Note: a separate listing for Hispanics is not included because the U.S. Census Bureau considers Hispanic to mean a person of Latin American descent (including persons of Cuban, Mexican, or Puerto Rican origin) and of Spanish descent living in the U.S. who may be of any race or ethnic group (white, black, Asian, etc.);
So, what have we learned today? Anyone can be hispanic! Even Oldglory there...you do live in a former Spanish state don't ya?
You're really clueless, aren't you? Hispanics are an ethnic group whose ancestors originated in the country of Spain on the European continent. Last I looked none of our states are in Spain or the European continent. They are in the U.S.
Liberals hate America. They would love to see the country over run with illegals and the flag replaced. They of course think the illegals hispanics would embrace them and take them in and all would be a grand utopia of love and peace bla bla bla. As long as somebody else is paying for it that is.

You're wrong, Mexicans are all poor and can't speak English, you need to get out more.
Does anybody happen to know why California high school students perform better on the ACT and SAT than Texas high school students?
