You mean Cubans, Puerto Ricans and Dominicans? We would usually think of them as Latin American, though Smiley

In any case, the three groups are very different - and generally do not like each other. Furthermore, there is a difference between the populations and home and in the US.  In the US, of course, Cubans are the most Republican of all the Hispanic groups. In contrast, Puerto Ricans and Dominicans are very Democratic (just check out the voting patterns in East Harlem, for Puerto Ricans, and in Washington Heights, for Dominicans).

I remember reading that Dominicans are the most Democratic-voting Hispanic group, and IIRC Puerto Ricans are not far behind. Cubans are an entirely different story. Due to the very different history of those three places, I don't think it's really helpful to lump them into the same category when discussing US politics.

They shouldn't be discussed when analyzing Hispanic voters in the US?  I wonder how they feel about that.  Amazing how much anti-Cuban bigotry has come out this year.

Amazing, how poor is the command of the English language exhibited by some people here. Basic Emglish reading comprehension at, say, the third-grade level should, probably be a pre-requisite for posting here.
