  • Very good and insightful article. It will probably be a while before a Latino constituency can be recognized among the Republican party. In comparison to the past however, the evidence appears to show a growing number of Latino voters admitting (to use one of the descriptions at the beginning of the article) that they share many of the Republican party's views. It will be interesting to see how it turns out over the next few decades as more and more Latinos in this country identify themselves more and more as third, fourth or fifth (...n'th) generation American. I only mention that due to the immigration perspective that appears to be swaying many Latinos here in America today. Being Latino doesn't automatically imply (and should never really) that a person is a Democrate or anti-Republican. That's an assumption that far too many people make unfortunately. Yes, there is a large majority of Latinos who do identify themselves as Democrate, but the percentage appears to not be as high as it did in the past. Thank you for such an insightful article Rodolfo!
