One thing is for certain about Obama's speech tonite....
The Goppers can kiss the Latino vote goodbye!
You know they won't do anything to pass a bill for comprehensive immigration - heck - they wouldn't even do that for Dubya when he tried.
Instead they are going to whine, scream, stomp their feet and shout Emperor and Impeach!
Let them. All they are doing is making sure they will never win another Presidential election.
No - what the President was able to do tonite is not enough but the Latino Population knows which political party has their back and which one treats them as sub-human.
================================
According to U.S. Census Bureau population estimates as of July 1, 2013, there are roughly 54 million Hispanics living in the United States, representing approximately 17% of the U.S. total population, making people of Hispanic origin the nation's largest ethnic or race minority.
The U.S. Hispanic population for 2060 is estimated to reach 128.8 million, constituting approximately 31% of the U.S. population by that date.
Among Hispanic subgroups, in 2012, Mexicans ranked as the largest at 64%. Following Mexicans were Puerto Ricans (9.4%), Salvadorans (3.8%), Cubans (3.7%), Dominicans (3.1%), Guatemalans (2.3%),and the remaining 13.7% were people of other Hispanic or Latino origins.

Now the real question about Democrats - will they have the President's back? Will they take charge of the message or will they continue to play defense to the GOP foot stomp?
