I don't think illegal immigrants will get the right to vote for several years, if they get it at all, but I started wondering, if they were to get the right to vote, would lean republican or democrat? Many Mexican immigrants came to America to earn higher wages - very capitalistic and Republican. Many are Catholic and pro-life, and support the church - again, more conservative than liberal. But would they see Republican resistance to amnesty as racist and be inclined to vote Democrat on that one issue?
I am genuinely curious to hear what people think about this. On paper it's easy to peg illegals as liberals, but looking at their motives and religion, they may be closet conservatives.

Definitely a third party. The immigrant population is large enough and potentially influentual. Immigrants that come to this country have a range of experiences Republicans and Democrats don't have. While both appeal to values immigrants carry, by no means do they represent the immigrant experience enough to meet their needs.

The only reason the Democrats want "amnesty" for illegals is because they will vote Democrat at the next election. The Hispanics will never vote for Republicans because they want less government. That means less social services such as free healthcare and free education. Obongo wants to put 12 million illegals before American citizens who cannot find jobs. That creature should be impeached!

I think it becomes obvious to people once they are here a bit, that the democrats pander to the minorities, whether it be real empathy or just begging for votes. Eventually I believe immigrants will vote democrat, unless they have someone like Ahnold who tries to play both sides of the fence. He sure was giving Bush a hard time about the border at California.

Both republicans and democrats are Americans. However, the illegals prefer to remain Mexicans even post amnesty. To begin with, let them speak English and mix with the mainstream culture. Then, whatever they are would be healthy for the country.

certain. we are fortunate in that we provide such an excellent style of reward that we are able to assert what style of immigrants we'd like, and would fill those diverse kinds without resorting to those who wreck our guidelines. you'll listen of agricultural themes, yet even the illegals in simple terms stay a little while in that market with the aid of the indisputable fact that's fullyyt seasonal artwork, and illegals who're planning to stay favor earnings year round. in the interim, with the aid of competition from illegals, farmworkers have lost each and each and every of the earnings and earnings valuable homes the UFW had made lower than Chavez (who become violentlly antagonistic to unlawful immigration for in simple terms that reason) so as that they favor to artwork year round. What has to regulate is employer's expectation that they could pay below a residing salary. It doesn't even artwork to save workers of their market WITH unlawful immigration, and the the before agricultural workers are all draining preparation wellbeing care and social provider money. With a residing salary, we are able to up the SEASONAL workers, and not in any respect have the down facet mass immigration would convey. playstation , depending on a submit above me, study were finished and if farmworker wages were raised from the poverty factor (an enhance of 40%) expenditures of produce would bypass up $10 for a relations of four over the approach a year. exertions is an truly small area of the cost of produce.

As for Mexican immigrants, I can't say. But in terms of say Cuban immigrants, I've noticed a trend of Republicans.

They would be democrats until they hit the lottery or struck it rich. Then they would compromise their morality and choose greed. So in turn they would turn Republican. They would continue to go to church and judge others all the while forgetting were they came from. It's the American way.
