Let's face it, Pat Buchanan's racism has never been subtle, nor is it this time either. Let's get it straight, if Hispanics overtake the population we should start worrying about if we will survive as a country. Go Republicans, your strategy is working. I can see the people lining up now to switch parties.

And look what happened to South Florida when the Cubans took it over! Or are they okay, Pat, because they're "anti-communists"? Damn foreigners ruining everything! And there's even some like me who put their kids in Spanish-language schools! Egads! People talking foreign! Yes Pat, your paranoia is justified.
