Not sure if you're merely trolling, but: I wonder if you live in the LA area? Because not many thoughtful people here talk like that any more -- not since Pete Wilson's time. Arnold Schwarzenegger flirted with it around 2005, but quickly back-pedaled.
I think the decline of this politics may have come from seeing where immigrant-bashing goes (typically, nowhere helpful). Or perhaps just demographics and the continuing integration of Latin American immigrants into the economy here. Just curious.
