The Republican Party should ditch any attempts to reach out to the Hispanic vote and instead focus on courting more white voters. Thats the advice of longtime conservative activist Phyllis Schlafly.
While appearing this week on the Focus Today radio program, Schlafly told host Perry Atkinson that the recent attempts by the GOP to reach out to Hispanic voters through immigration reform constitutes a great myth because immigrants are unlikely to vote conservative anyway.
The Hispanics who come in like this are going to vote Democrat, she said. There isnt the slightest bit of evidence that they are going to vote Republican.
The people the Republicans should reach out to are the white votes the white voters who didnt vote in the last election. There are millions of them. I think when you have an establishment-run nomination system, they give us a series of losers, which theyve given us with Dole, McCain, and Romney and they give us people who dont connect with the grassroots.
