Update II: See also "Hopes Frustrated, Many Latinos Reject the Ballot Box Altogether" (Calmes. NYT). None of this will come as a surprise to residents of Wisconsin's 8th Assembly District, the heavily Latino, most densely populated district with the lowest voter turn-out in Wisconsin. Folks there know they are not getting a lot of love from the Obama administration, and thus turn to greater community to support extended families and communities, as they shun electoral politics.
Update: See The Severe Hispanic Midterm Falloff Problem, because it's the right thing to do and the smart thing to do: Amnesty for Immigrants Now.
Now would be a good time to for blanket Amnesty (forget about a "path") for undocumented immigrants by president Obama.
This will not make Obama popular with white supremacists, and various other constituencies of white America; begging the question: What do you care about these idiots?
They will be rushing to the polls anyway come November, and I think they won't be voting Democratic.
