As the population of the ethnic minority increases, the politics will also changes

When the Wall Street crisis broken out, almost the whole nation turned attention on economic issue and neglected others such as immigration. However, it does not mean that those issues were solved. The Census showed that the between 1990 and 2000, Texas’s population growth was the result of natural increase (49.7 percent) and immigration from other states and from other nations (50.3 percent). Especially in the states as Texas, as Hispanics become the principal ethnic group and Anglos lose their majority status, politics and government will be influenced dramatically. In Texas, Democrats outnumbered Republicans by a two-to-one margin in party identification among Hispanic voters. Moreover, not only Hispanics but also other racial groups such as Asian Americans are coming to the United States by immigration. If Republicans keep advocating for restricting immigration, they will not only lose this presidential election but future. I recommend this commentary which supports the above belief and wish politicians could realize this fact: “Hispanics turn cold shoulder to McCain” http://www.mysanantonio.com/Politico_Hispanics_turn_cold_shoulder_to_McCain.html
