Honestly, one half of my Hispanic family are all doctors and business owners and they are HUGE Republicans. The fact that they're Catholic and believe in alot of socially conservative principles was icing on the cake for them. It never really made sense to me that Republicans act like these minority groups are one big monolith in terms of ideas and approaches to life. Not all Latinos think its admirable to steal money from the government or to enter the country illegally. Myself case in point. To use a tired but still valid idea, I'm sure white Republicans do not like paying for ,say social services, but then again status conscious and class climbing Hispanic, Asian and Black Americans don't like to either. White Republicans should concentrate on those minorities and commend and flatter those whose lifestyles match theirs.carolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00301532430070292401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21079623.post-61762383830638610782009-03-03T11:11:00.000-08:002009-03-03T11:11:00.000-08:00Neo,All this makes Michale Steele and Bobby Jindal...Neo,<BR/>All this makes Michale Steele and Bobby Jindal even more "outsiders" in their own party - hence thier close hewing to Republican orthodoxy.Philip H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12049875206738422083noreply@blogger.com
