Could you please link to these "studies?" I am sure they're not questionable in any way. |

You're right pp, many of the Hispanic illegal aliens have no interest in assimilation. They want to turn the USA into the third world countries that they came from. They can have "the country", because in a few years, it will be ruined if they continue down this path. Most of us won't want it anymore. I know I won't. I'll move to my dh's home country and be an immigrant there. And I'll do my best to assimilate and show his country some respect, unlike the some of the immigrants that have been coming into the USA lately. |
Here's one: http://www.ppic.org/content/pubs/report/r_502JGR.pdf Here's the op-ed piece where I got it from: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/28/opinion/sunday/douthat-when-the-assimilation-of-immigrants-stalls.html Here's a book written about it: http://www.amazon.com/Generations-Exclusion-Mexican-Americans-Assimilation/dp/0871548496 |

Hispanics are assimilating just as quickly as earlier groups:

Italian Americans were considered a different race 100 years ago. The same is happening with Latinos. http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/politics/2014/05/hispanics_opting_to_identify_as_white_how_are_hispanics_assimilating.html |
Well, I certainly hope these studies are right rather than the earlier ones. Time will tell I guess. |
