I work for an online sporting goods firm, and many or most of our warehouse employees are Latino, and most of them are Mexican.
One burly Mexican guy, named M., is a guy that I get along with quite well. He does not speak much English, and I speak a little broken Spanish. He was missing for a few days. He came back today and showed me his citizenship card. He is a new American citizen, and he told me that his wife became a citizen too.
A second later he said, "NO Trump." He became a citizen to vote for Hilary. I grimaced and gave the thumbs down sign and replied, "No Hilary".
He seemed hurt by my response.
This a smart, hardworking, decent man. He showed me pictures of his $200,000, handsome house out in Ramsey, where he resides. He showed me a series of shots he took on his smart phone of a before, during and after landscaping bed that he cleaned out, laid down matting and filled it in with plants and orange crushed rock. This man is ambitious, decent, honest a worthy neighbor.
But, he sees the anti--immigration movement as racism by whites and Trump against Latinos. M. is incorrect and misled by the socialist race-baiters on the Left, corralling and herding them into the Hilary tent.
The conservative revolution, part Mavellonialist and part Tea Party, combined with the traditional American Way, cannot uplift, enrich and free all Americans and all people everywhere, unless we end immigration here, and get our house back in order with the constitutional republic restored and recharged.
We will grow supercitizens out of regular citizens only if race and group-affiliation little interests people in the future, as they concentrate on building a life for themselves. I wish I could explain that to M. and all Latinos.
