LINK CPAC speaker list

Just looked at the speaker list for CPAC and noticed an absence of Hispanic/Latino speakers. I get that we aren't supposed to obsess over identity politics like the left. But lets face reality, America is going to get alot more hispanic very soon. The Trump message seemed to appeal to working class Latinos, how do we keep pushing this message?

frick yeah. Trump received record levels of Latino votes for a Republican. I have a former friend who is a communist, and even he admits that they should be voting Republican given their values.

Seriously, we need to get this train rolling now. Trump is finished, but we got someone much better than him and without any skeletons that we know of (the media sure as shite has been digging for them).

Answer: yes. Many people assume that Latinos are mostly liberals and that they will join together with blacks and liberal whites for form an electoral coalition favoring Democrats. In fact, there is a great deal of potential for Republicans in seeking the Latino vote, particularly in terms of the relative social conservatism of Latinos and the openness of many Latinos to support market solutions to policy problems.

Yes but the problem is when the Dems let all the illegal immigrants in and make them citizens. Well when they vote, they will remember who helped them out and they will vote D.

When that happens no need to depend on fraud to win elections anymore.

Should be pushing hard on all groups: the legal Chinese immigrants pissed at Biden for his genocidal Cultural Norms bull shite, AA for employment opportunities being eroded by mass illegal immigration, and Latinos that worked their asses off to get here legally.

Yep..... Problem is that the masses trust the government to educate their children. How to persuade a brainwashed generation that they will be enslaved by the very people claiming to help them is the real challenge.

Yes, but the GOPe does not want Latinos, Blacks or working class whites. They want country clubbers who are more concerned with appearing like they care, but actually don't want to do anything. Trump pissed them off by enlarging the party.

Maybe this immigration thing is going to backfire on the Ds then.

Absolutely. Tens of Millions of Latin people are conservative and have similar ideas. Especially those from communities that have fled from Socialist and Communist governments. However, many of those will never vote for the GOP because they know there are huge numbers of people within the GOP that think exactly like these 2 posters below.

The idea of voting for the same party where millions of people feel exactly like these 2 shitbags below feels like voting against their own self interests and counter intuitive. They have too much pride to vote in lock step with people that they know despise and look down upon them. So they likely won't vote at all. Which is a shame because there are many more that are ready and willing to welcome us with arms wide open. It's the reality though. You lose them then the future generations of their family who likely would have voted Republican and only hurt your cause.

I'm hispanic and will continue to vote conservative, but this shite is a slap in the face to millions of us. Especially those of us who went on to serve our country, become Law enforcement agents and are positively serving our communities and country. These quotes were from the thread about why doesn't the 2nd ammendment appeal to more minorities & I have seen many more like them in threads on this board. These lowest common denominators and their way of thinking need to be weeded out before you'll ever get enough of the Hispanic vote to matter year in and year out.









Or like this dumb arse proving my point in this thread.
