the coloring of America

[Anonymous]

A couple of years ago, I moved from NYC to Virginia.
A former client called me and asked me to take a case. My fees are around $1,000 per hour, she knows that and is OK with that (although she always complains).
I can't take the case because I let my NY bar license lap, so I refer her to another lawyer. He wants more than $1,000 per hour, and she balks. I refer her to a another lawyer, who agrees to $1,000 per hour.

The client is African-American; I'm Hispanic and I grew up speaking Spanish; the second referral lawyer is Muslim and was born in Pakistan.

In the next several decades, these NYC demographics will spread out to the rest America, and America has nothing to fear.

And continue the melting pot metaphor. You could have written a similar comment 100 years ago. We aren't that special.

I think it's actually funny, because the large Hispanic population that's growing is VERY Catholic, VERY patriarchal, and can be very conservative. Many Hispanics are business owners and detest high taxes. They also come from cultures that push very strong traditional family values, and they're way more anti-lbgtq in many parts of central America where Christianity and Catholicism are much stronger. Also, Hispanics helped vote in GOP Bush and Abbott in TX. It just showed you how they eventually establish themselves as very conservative traditional family value types over time. It's going to be so funny when all of this backfires on the Dems. As they always say, be careful what you wish for. Dems will get their diversity alright, but it probably isn't going to turn out the way they intended.

The majority of Hispanics still vote Dem.

First generation immigrants are always liberal. But look at Italians now. They're often very conservative. Hispanics are not going to give up Catholicism over 1 or 2 generations as they become more established. They remain very very Christian and family oriented. Many eventually own businesses. Go look at a state like TX where they have lived for a lot longer than most states. They vote very conservatively.

Yes but once they realize that the GOP want them out and don’t consider them real Americans, they vote with the Dems. It happened to my Hispanic immigrant DH. They will learn that the GOP support policies that will hurt them.

Except they don't do that in Texas. The governor of Texas literally put up razor wire to keep illegals out and Hispanic voters keep voting for GOP governors. There's no way Bush or Abbott win the gubernatorial race without the Hispanic vote. They voted for GOP.

Didn’t work that way for Asian Americans. They actually became more Democrat the longer they’ve been in the U.S.

The majority of Hispanic voters are not first gen. It's the other way. First gen are usually more conservative. Next gen less so. Same thing happens in the Asian American community.

-Asian American child of first gen from CA.

Hey dummy... subsequent generations of Hispanics also tend to be less hardcore Catholics.

CA is like 40% Hispanics, and the majority of voters keep voting for liberals.

Nearly all African American (96%) and white (94%) likely voters are native-born US citizens, compared to 70% of Latino likely voters;
