When are democrats gonne be satisfied with the integration of hispanic?

No need to panic

Yah. See Latinos and the American political parties | Pew Research Center

"October 11, 2016

"Democrats Maintain Edge as Party ‘More Concerned’ for Latinos, but Views Similar to 2012

"4. Latinos and the political parties
By Mark Hugo Lopez, Ana Gonzalez-Barrera, Jens Manuel Krogstad and Gustavo López

"Latino registered voters have long said the Democratic Party has more concern for Latinos or Hispanics than the Republican Party, with Democrats losing some ground on this measure since 2012. Over the same period, Democrats have not made significant gains in party affiliation, with 64% of Latino voters identifying with or leaning toward the Democratic Party in 2016, a similar share to 2012 when 70% said the same.

"Which party has more concern for Latinos?

"Today, 54% of Latino registered voters say the Democratic Party has more concern for Latinos than the Republican Party, while 11% say the Republican Party has more concern – a 43-point difference. The Democratic advantage on this measure has remained relatively stable since 2012, when 61% of Latino voters said Democrats had more concern for Hispanics, compared with 10% who said the same of Republicans. At the same time, 28% of Latino registered voters today say there’s no difference between the two parties on this measure, a share that is relatively unchanged from 2012."

(My emphasis - more @ the URL)

More civic engagement would likely lead to more Hispanics voting Democratic. Or more higher education would likely lead to the same outcome.
 
Re: No need to panic

The way I understand it is, like 70-80% of Hispanics vote democrat. What's surprising to me is that 20-30% vote republican. I assume the ones who vote republican are small business owners and religious types.

When will white people integrate into the Hispanic culture in Texas and California? White immigrants just refuse to assimilate.

Sure. All they have to do is stop eating corn, potatoes, chile, tacos, tortillas, salsa, burritos, …

& White immigrants was a fair description of the Spanish themselves, when they showed up in the New World in 1492 CE. (That's changed, of course.)

Cubans mostly vote Republican. Learned this in 2016 when I expected Trump to lose Florida. Something having to do with Castro.

Most Hispanics who came from Cuba vote Republican, most Hispanics who came from Mexico and Central America vote Democratic. You can see this in Florida where Cuban Hispanics voted for Trump 54-41 while all other Hispanics voted for Clinton 71-26. I used Florida as an example because of their large Cuban-American population. But it applies across the entire U.S. Here's the Historic breakdown of all Hispanics.

I just feel weird dumping my trash cans in the front yard instead of taking them out to the curb. I know it would be easier to illegally park in a handicapped spot then ignore the ticket. I just believe that creating legal problems will eventually come back to bite me. Making noise all hours of the night also goes against my grain.
 
Re: No need to panic

Hispanics over age 50 also tend to lean more Republican. That why it's so important to keep importing a fresh supply of Democrat voters.

We do... look at all the street names and Mexican restaurants... College kids were even having Sombrero parties until Latinos called them racist.

Have all the 'cultural fusion' you want but every now and then some white guy loses it and goes on a murdering rampage.

When are you going to stop making race baiting posts and go back to Stormfront?

Careful. Don't let it get to you. Every now and then some white guy loses it and goes on a murderous rampage. It's that culture of sudden violence that white peope brought with them when they immigrated to the Hispanic areas and refuse to leave behind. They just won't assimilate, they bring their culture with them and impose it on the natural demographic.

You say that like it's a concession. That's not how assimilation works.

Most Hispanics are white. So race is not relevant here.

Umm, there is no longer any “natural demographic” there. Do you even know history? Hispanic simply means Spanish speaking. There would be no “Hispanic areas” if not for Spain. What point are you even making? It sounds like you’re just using buzzwords with no knowledge behind them

The Spanish colonized and assimilated their lands just like the British did. The area that’s now Texas is not a majority Hispanic area and never was outside of the South, the furthest north that was Hispanic populated was San Antonio, and those people (the Tejanos) widely supported the Texas secession movement. And later US annexation (also CSA secession, many tejanos fought under arms for the confederacy).

Whatever point you’re making, makes no sense. Like nearly all leftist noise.

You know damned well what I'm talking about. Culture. Hispanic culture, white American culture, two different things. Right? Right? And the situation in the American Southwest, where white Americans brought their violent gun culture into a Hispanic area and now occasionally go on the rampage pretty much mirrors the fears Americans have about Muslim terrorists. They just won't assimilate. They bring their violent culture with them and impose it on the native demographic.

I was joking about, but in all seriousness there was not a lot of Mexican culture here prior to the Americans showing up. It was sparsely populated and I would argue that "white" American culture has assimilated more into Mexican culture than the other way around.

White culture from the south west isn't very different from north Mexican culture, they value religion, close family, and hard work to get ahead. The only difference is language.

Yes there are cultural differences, a different language, more connection to indigenous peoples, the Hispanics largely follow the one true Catholic Church whereas the Anglo Whites were protestant, true.

Let's stop right here, you're seriously going to argue there's no violence in Hispanic cultures? You might want to exit this highway now.

No, it doesn't. It's not remotely similar. For many historical reasons.

They just won't assimilate.

There was no dominant culture or functioning state apparatus to assimilate into.

I would say violence, most generously, is equal between the cultures, there was no native demographic, the area was largely unpopulated and the Hispanic populations were largely Mestizos with majority Spanish ancestry whose ancestors arrived after 1700.

Hell white Americans stationed in California threw such a fit about zoot suiters (a mostly hispanic fad if i recall correctly) was such an embarrassment FDR had to order the navy to move.
