Democrats and Hispanics love affair -- is it based on income?

It's based on values.

Latino voters are liberal on both social issues and economic issues.

Also, people seem to think the surge of Asian immigrants (more coming in than Hispanics now) are the Japanese/Chinese/Korean ethnicities. In actuality, they're mostly Muslim immigrants from Asia... so I don't think the GOP will be doing that good of a job of attracting them either.

Bangladash and India, some from other Southeast Asian countries.

(There are more Muslims in India than in any other country in the world)

Also I'm talking about the Asians immigrating to America now and in recent years, not the makeup of all those already here (who the Chinese would be the majority).

It can't be entirely income-based, because then Asians, who out-earn whites(especially Indian-Americans), vote heavily Democrat as well. Ditto with the gays and Jews.


Income is a big part of it, yes. But social issues and the perception that the Republican Party is nothing but a hate-fest sure isn't helping

There are many Hispanics who weren't born here and don't yet understand the bias of the liberal media. They come here and become poorly informed and poor information leads to voting for Democrats.

That's true I work I was working Security in 2004 and one of the cleaners who was Hispanic he was like you like Bush W. he is for the rich. I'm like what are you talking about? At that time I didn't understand the liberal bias of the media because I didn't follow politics that often. Now had it been now I might have agreed with the cleaner in 2004 because the hard-right really didn't exist and nobody heard of the tea party.

On another note NBC does own Univision(a Hispanic network.)

Are you saying that Republican's aren't for the rich, and the Democrats aren't for the poor and middle class?

Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Children's Health Insurance, Minimum Wage, labor protections and regulations, etc. Just to name a few.
