jobs are leaving the country. some immigrants are too lazy too work. let's be careful when we say immigrant as most of us are immigrants originally unless your family came over on the Mayflower.

I think I agree man. Trump knew how to spit really good game to certain segments of Middle America (and disgruntled folks everywhere), but the truth is he is actually so embedded into the pre-existing power structure (contrary to what he markets) that a Trump presidency probably won't be too different than any other Republican presidency.

I think this is a disgusting statement. I don't think it is the entitled American.

I think the uneducated might be right as the educated people know that Trump is blowing smoke a lot of the time and won't do half of the things that he is saying.

What happened to Obama's Dream Act that was supposed to pave way for citizenship so people could start paying taxes or will they go straight to the unemployment/EBT food line?

hillary is going to make people pay if they send jobs outside of America. Not sure how much that will be, but if the savings is greater than the penalty then companies might move jobs overseas regardless

I'd like to see that curriculum. Perhaps you could enlighten me as to what extent it is studied.

I don't care if you are an "educator." If you deny what I posted, you don't know what's going on around you. You should probably find a new profession, as you don't seem to be keeping up.

White voters will remain the key demographic for quite a while. It will probably be another 4 election cycles before non white voters have the political clout. Even then the Hispanic and Asian voters need to start showing up in larger numbers.
They need to be legal before they can "start showing up" to vote." Illegal aliens aren't allowed to vote, but if Hillary gets her way, they will. She even wants convicted felons to vote.

Ah, you're looking for the pre-pivot Donald. Sorry - you're a little late. I hear he's made YUGE inroads with the non-white voters. It's wonderful.

You might want to take a look at the Hispanics already in congress. They do indeed serve Hispanics only.

In desperate times, the public turns to radical people.

As a culture, yes. The American culture is white melting pot , with lots protestant work ethic. If too much of the third world gets here, it will become more authoritarian and socialist. I think Asians will become part of that melting pot and to a lessor degree Hispanics, but not if 60 million Spanish speakers all cluster together. That will Balkanize. It already is.
