So you are in favor of preferring immigration from European nations, then?

When the bulk of the Irish came we were a wide open frontier in need of nation builders and most came here legally not illegally. Today we have immigration laws and quotas because we are now a nation of over 315 million with shortages of jobs and resources. We still allow in 1 million legal immigrants a year and the bulk of them are from Mexico and other Latin American countries . So where is the discrimination against them if that is what you are implying. The objection is to illegal immigration. Got that now?

I don't see it as a huge problem.
No, it hasn't dropped. Since Obama has promised amnesty for sure this time around and a a bill got through the Senate recently illegal immigration from south of our border has increased. Once again, who cares about skin color or race? My concern is for our identifying culture and not losing it via illegal immigration and another stupid amnesty.

Problem for you is 75%-90% of even legal white immigration from all of Canada, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand are potential new Democrats when they become citizens, considering that the conservative parties in their respective countries are almost always to the left of the GOP on just about everything

Borders aren't natural? Tell that to all the governments of the world then. No, I will not adapt to a changing culture via illegal immigration nor should any country's citizens. It is not natural nor lawful. Bet you wouldn't say that to the Mexicans in Mexico to just deal with it from a massive influx of illegal Chinese thereby changing their country to an Asian one rather than a Hispanic one, would you hypocrite?

Wow, anti american, ethnocentric? You know, I don't think that I come off that way, but I do, it is only because I have to DEFEND myself against white supremacists such as yourself who fear change and want nothing more to do than to instill fear in others because you fear change and think that your race is so much better than mine, I mean after all, can't let anyone else get a leg up can we? I knew you were going to say something about the language thing which is why I put what I did, I don't care if it's rude, you are talking about my posts, isn't there something that is called the first amendment that protects my right as an American for me to say what I want within reason? And just so you know, I actually get paid a pretty good salary to speak Spanish all day, thanks.

As for why the spanish came over here, you should know this, they came for glory, power, honor and conquest, not because they were ran out of their country because they couldn't hack it. I never said that people from those countries were country bumpkins, but any of the puritans and religious zealots that ran away and criminals that were exiled from those countries are. Say what you want, but your posts sound just the same, anti hispanic, xenophobic and fearful.
None of that stuff would work in 2013.

Too; NO LatAm country has it together in 2013. 1 HUGE problem with the US are the mostly "Hispanic" ILLEGAL aliens here.

The US would be like LatAm: the "white" people would really be on top with mostly dark skin people being on the bottom.

If the Hispanics don't get their heads together this country will be flushed down the toilet.

Hispanic run cities are not too bad, San Antonio, El Paso, Albuquerque various California and Texas cities etc.

The thing is they are not good enough, too many Hispanics work low waged jobs because they don't have the proper education that Whites have.

When important fields need to be filled those jobs will be outsourced to other countries. Making those countries stronger.

America can't run on low tax based minimum waged jobs. It's going to turn into what the Mexicans are fleeing from..MEXICO...

Yet that is exactly what the right-wing want. They say we can't afford to have high paying jobs because that is "uncompetitive" to the rest of the world causing the offshoring of our jobs. It's called the race to the bottom.
