Sorry, David, but while numbers aren’t everything, we at least should get them right. As Ramesh tirelessly points out, Bush did not get 44 percent of the Hispanic vote; he got 38-40 percent, still good for a Republican, but still a landslide against him.

Also, the entrepreneurship thing is something that particularly bugs me. Immigrants used to be more likely to own their own businesses decades ago, but aren’t any longer. And Hispanic immigrants are among the least entrepreneurial of all immigrants, with their self-employment rates at half or less the rate for the native-born. If you want entrepreneurship, it’s Koreans and Middle Easterners you want. See Table 9 here; for an older, but more detailed, examination, look here.

Hispanics are indeed more pro-life than whites. So are blacks. Your point is …? It would seem to be at least as relevant to voting behavior to know that 43 percent of all Mexican-immigrant-headed households are on welfare.

Saying that Hispanics vote (and have been voting for as long as anyone has checked) “against their economic interests and their values” is the same kind of patronizing thing the leftists say about any Republican who’s not driving a Mercedes. Voters — of all ethnicities — are adults and know what they’re doing.
