I have mixed feelings about the Syrians. I understand that they are fleeing wars and whatnot. But they voted based on their religious conservative conviction. So, they ended up with religious conservative nuts in power. Then they flee to the west and then demand that the west put conservative crazies in power over here. In other words, they haven't learned anything and actually want to turn the west into the same conservative hell hole that they came from.

Facts disagree with you.

70% plus of Latinos vote for Democrat.

Facts once again disagree with you. 70% of Muslim vote for Democrats.

More Than 1 Million US Muslims Now Registered to Vote

"The October CAIR survey showed that 72 percent of registered Muslim voters planned to vote for Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, while only 4 percent said they would cast their ballots for Trump. "

They did so because the GOP this time around called them murderers and rapists.

It's a balancing act. I guarantee you, if your candidate was as passionate against the gheys like myself, 70% of the Latinos and like 90% of the blacks would have voted for the GOP candidate.

Blacks and Latinos are known to be conservative. Again, prop 8 proved this.

Absolutely! I was just rebut his point. The people who really need help aren't going to be able to get out because they are poor and illiterate.

Because this time around the GOP candidate calls the Muslims terrorists. Again, had Trump turned his negative focus on the gheys and promised a religious conservative government, 100% of the Muslims would have voted for him.

Trust me, Muslims don't like the dems. They voted for dem this time around because of immediate self interest.

Because every election year the GOP candidates would rail against the Latinos. Take that out of the equation and see what happens.

Something like 70% of the blacks and Latinos voted for prop 8. It's not something that I can forget that easily.

What's good for the country is the last thing on their minds. No guarantees they vote Democrat. Much more certain to bring people in whom you can control.
