Hispanics work hard and don't like paying taxes. That's why the the dems are working so hard on trying to make them rely on the government.

I'm convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt that all of the rioters are people without jobs.

Normal working class blacks I've spoken with also laugh about the lunacy of it.

Come from a Cuban family that is part of a really big family like Latino community. Most Latinos I know are too proud to be pandered to they way they're doing with blacks right now

Don't you know when the democrats discuss Blacks they now add in "and Brown people"?

Hispanic Americans are the fastest growing voter block and pretty soon, within a few years, the Black voting block will not matter. Then you will not see this sort of pandering before every November election. If they think their votes don't matter now wait a few years. What a shame the left uses the Blacks then throws them away. Or in Bidens case he creates the Crime Bill and 3 Strikes you are in Jail which led to no fathers for our nations black youth. biden in effect caused many of the problems we have in the black community.

In my experience, they don’t see many similarities at all. The Hispanic population really doesn’t even like to be compared with blacks. There are a myriad of reasons as I have been told :
victimization by blacks (typically unreported)
perceptions concerning work ethic
cultural identity centered around paternalism

In short...Hispanics in my experience generally don’t seem to believe there aren’t a lot of similarities.

FWIW, my experiences are centered in the southern US and deal with mainly Central Americans and some Mexicans. Very few South Americans.

They probably resent it

I see where you're coming from, but Republicans will never out-pander the Democrats. Dems are expert level at that game. Republicans have to win on ideas.

My wife is Colombian. She can't understand why we're not busting more vandal and rioter heads.

The folks I know, who emigrated here from a South American country, are all pretty damned based.

ETA: These are first generation Americans I'm talking about; I think that, with succeeding generations, the drumbeat of victimhood, with which the left works so hard to saturate our society, turns a lot of them

Man, I love me some Cuban people. Some of the most down to earth and genuine folks I’ve ever met. Love me some Cuban women too.

I feel that what’s happening now is creating the opposite effect of what was intended. It’s creating a larger divide and even turning non racist people into racist people.


This is exactly what the people funding this movement intended. Fighting racism is being used as a Trojan horse to start a Marxist revolution.

1) How do Hispanics view the virtual (albeit disingenuous) lovefest being shown by Dems and the media towards blacks? As "minorities," do they identify as having similar issues as blacks? Or not? Personally, I don't think they do. As a group, Hispanics don't have nearly as much trouble with law enforcement. Hispanic families tend to be intact, with a much lower rate of single-parent families. Given all of this and more, I simply don't see how Hispanics would identify with black people to any significant degree.

2) If you were advising President Trump and his campaign team, wouldn't you advise him to make a special effort to reach out to a minority group which A) is almost 50% larger than blacks, and B) seems to have been largely forgotten by Democrats who don't seem to realize that they are largely ignoring what has become the biggest minority group in America (and by a substantial margin)?


With Hispanics you have a slightly different trend regarding social issues.

They are just slightly above Blacks regarding educational attainment (as a group). And while they don't have the same arrest rates, they still are get caught up in crimes regarding drugs. And then you have to consider a substantial portion of Hispanics sympathize with illegal immigration. The middle class and higher don't, but that's not the vast majority.

They have similar social issues as Blacks. But not to the same degree.

As for B, keep in mind that Democrats won Hispanics in the last election by a comfortable margin. Democratic policies are actually beneficial to many low income Hispanics. I think a massive amount of effort is necessary to win Hispanics over by a dominant margin. I would settle for a 50/50 split.

Then they better realize that in order to win on ideas the people they are trying to reach must first desire to use logic and reason as the basis to make their decisions. This is the exact opposite of what the priorities of the American education system are today. If they are planning on using this strategy they need to play it on the right game board. Right now they are trying to play chess on a Monopoly board.
