This is truly pathetic. Republicans claim they aren't racist, and to the most part, I agree, the general Republican populous most likely doesn't fantasize of a Great White Society. However, this belief about how Hispanics and Blacks can't vote properly, and how only White's "understand" this nation, is still in many of their minds. Whenever their is an article about a successful Hispanic immigrant, instead of complimenting them on their business and work ethic, the comments from Republicans are patronizing, and treating these people as if they were an ant farm, with comments such as "So good they didn't need to sneak in here" or "I wish more of them actually worked and came here LEGALLY like the rest of us". These comments are disturbing, and even as a non-hispanic caucasian, offensive.

Are these comments posted on here? If not, how do you know they are Republicans and not extreme independents or Constitutional Party people?

Ain't semantics fun, Yankee? Tongue

Replace "Republicans" with "Conservatives" and you'll get my point.

And you don't find judging a whole party and "what is on its members minds" based on what you find in obscure comments sections of websites on the internet, to be the least bit patronizing and condescending? Tongue

Not sure if what's your saying is "condescending", but I agree that what I said was irrational. I just meant that many of these "good-ole-boy" types have a prejudiced against LEGAL immigrant Hispanics, and treat them barely better than illegals.
