Linda Chavez points out, in the San Diego Union-Tribune, that the hardline posture on immigration could prove to be a permanent problem for the Republican Party.
The impending explosion of Hispanic citizens in this country and what it might mean has been discussed for a long time. It is a segment of the population that both parties have pursued for years, and it wasn't too long ago that Republicans talked about winning a permanent political majority in this country by securing about 40% or so of the Hispanic vote. But that talk went away after the 2006 elections, when Hispanic support for the Republicans fell into the low 30s.
Republicans have alienated many Hispanics, and they may be paying the price for a generation or more.

My suggestion for an enduring solution to the immigration issue: Annex the entire North American continent into the United States - Canada, Mexico and everything down to Panama.
Let's skip the North American Union nonsense and just annex them. Take their land, take their oil, tax their citizens and assimilate them into our culture.
I advocate annexation to enhance our national security, not to solve the immigration problem. But it would make most of our immigration problems a moot issue.
I realize this must sound like a radical proposal, but when it becomes clear that Russia and China are expanding their territories and inserting their influence into our realm, annexation should be given serious consideration.
