If the GOP cannot package its ideas in a package that can appeal to Latin-American immigrants, then the GOP deserves to be a permanent minority part.
If socialism, oppression, and the welfare state can be marketed, in some way, to any population on the globe, then so can truth, justice, and the American Way.
Determine all this from your extensive interaction with Mexican border hoppers, eh?
Here are a few observations:
1. Mean border hopper has lower than mean (100) IQ, somewhere around 90.
2. Mean border hopper has a short time horizon. Partly due to #1, but also a cultural artifact. Sacrifice now for a better tomorrow does not compute.
3. Mean border jumper comes from a culture fine with a Big Man and his cronies ruling the roost and doling out favors to buddies and paying off the masses. The usual "top & bottom against the middle" setup. This means the Mexican middle class is tiny relative to the size of America's middle class over most its history.
4. No matter their religious or social conservatism, almost all vote for the party that promises the biggest bag of "gimme."
For the GOP to appeal to the majority of latin americans in the USA, it would have to stop being the GOP and become the Democrat Party.
