Maybe Harry has not seen the polls showing his son trailing Brian Sandoval (who is Hispanic) for Governor
Libs like Harry believe everyone should think and agree with them - and carry their ACLU membership card with pride

His comment is nonsensical because there is no such thing as "Hispanic descent." Hispanics are persons with national origins in Spanish-speaking countries, and nationality cannot be genetically transmitted. His opponent's campaign is no better informed, as they also inaccurately believed that he was referring to a racial group. And what's so relevant about Rubio? He's one white man reprimanding another.

Hispanics aren't a race; therefore, it's not possible to make racist remarks about them as a group. It is possible to mistakenly categorize an Indian sub-class of Hispanics as representative of the group as a whole, and disparage them. But Marco Rubio is of no relevance to that, since he is a white man.

Indians...or rather, re-socialized "mestizos." The difference is somewhat like that between Africans and African-Americans.
It's interesting that you chose that particular image, which is bandied about quite often on white supremacist sites that I visit, like Stormfront and the Vanguard News Network. One wonders when racial minorities are ever depicted in a positive light on this rightist message board.

By other people who are making poor word choices. But the background of that is that there are fears that it makes racial profiling of Indians more probable.
A significant number of people simply don't have a tolerance for racial profiling, and noticed the race-based language in the bill that had to be removed when it was publicized, and realize what the nature of its de facto implementation will be.
It's clear that if the potential for this profiling to occur rises, the target will be an Indian phenotype. Now, what of the fact that native Arizonans possess an Indian phenotype, often possess Spanish surnames and adhere to Roman Catholicism because of the historical Hispanic (Spanish and Mexican) control of the region, and may speak broken or accented English? Is English a more authentically Arizonan language than dine bizaad?
What's needed is for the indigenous governments of the region to condemn this authoritarian policy. In a declaration of opposition passed by the Tohono O'odham Legislative Council, the problems were openly stated:
"[A]lthough Native Americans have been present in what is now Arizona since time immemorial, many tribal members speak English as a second language, do not speak English, or were not issued birth certificates and lack documentation establishing their citizenship and lawful residence in the United States...SB 1070 therefore will expose Arizona tribal members to arrest if they are suspected of being illegal aliens and cannot document their citizenship or lawful presence in the United States.
There is an authorization for tribal Chairman Ned Norris and the Domestic Affairs Committee to jointly offer a resolution of opposition to the Inter-Tribal Council of Arizona, as well as for the tribal delegation to the National Congress of American Indians to also introduce such a resolution.

The Tohono O'odham reservation contains effectively all of Pima County, and borders Joe Arpaio's Maricopa County, so the only stronger message that could be sent are condemnations from higher echelons or a similar resolution from the government of the Navajo Nation, I would say, since that would emphasize for the citizens of Arizona that the indigenous residents of the state are not willing to tolerate the latest offensive policy of European encroachment.

Ariz. immigration law mirrors federal version but with state enforcement
MSNBC host Joe Scarborough has an odd obsession for criticizing conservatives for calling Mr. Obama a "Nazi" all the time, yet he has no problem comparing the newly signed Arizona immigration law to "Nazi guards asking to see your papers." Even President Obama did not go that far, but he did call the new law "misguided."
On both accounts Mr. Scarborough is wrong. One day he will hopefully realize that LaRouche Democrats who attend various protests with Nazi images of Mr. Obama are not conservatives and Arizona's new immigration enforcement law is designed to mirror federal immigration laws already in place.
Federal law mandates that aliens register and carry their documentation. Arizona's new law functions the same way. Why hasn't the MSNBC host called the federal law "Nazi" in nature?
"Let's clarify what isn't in the bill. The law does not give police officers any additional powers to stop or pull anybody over. You're still going to have to abide by lawful contact," said Bob Dane spokesman for the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) , a Washington, D.C., based immigration nonprofit.
Mr. Dane made it clear that an officer of the law cannot simply walk up to an individual who is not committing a crime or traffic violation and ask the person for his or her legal status.
"You need a legitimate reason ... speeding, reckless driving. The law is predicated on the protections of the fourth amendment against unreasonable searches and seizures."
If an individual committing a violation or crime is found out to have an illegal status, the law enforcement officer will contact immigration authorities.
"They’re going to contact ICE, immigration law enforcement support center in an attempt to verify status. ICE will need to properly staff and resource themselves in order to support the new Arizona law, although I wouldn’t expect a surge of illegal aliens being identified and arrested," Mr. Dane said, pointing to Oklahoma's tough immigration laws that he says led to more "attrition" through enforcement than anything else.

Reid's problem is that he thinks of hispanics as a racial group, which of course they aren't.
His other problem is that he thinks that all hispanics are sympathetic to illegals, which they aren't.
The majority of the people in Arizona are in favor of cracking down on illegal immigration 60% favor the new law. White non-hispanics are only 58% of the population in that state, obviously other races/ethnic groups favor this law.

You just like arguing semantics don't you. Never arguing facts or getting to a point but always trying to redefine words that are defined by what they mean to a majority of people. I.e. Communism equates to USSR, Hispanic equates to people born from those of Spanish decent or Spanish speaking countries. Words have many meanings but it would be good for you to know what those meanings are instead of trying to create your own based on loosley pulled together ideas from a very small minorty.

In this instance, the dichotomy is between the ignorant and people who know what they're talking about. Hispanics can be of any race, whether Indians of Mexico, blacks of Panama, or whites of Argentina. The migrants to the U.S. that are generally from the cultural area of Mesoamerica are certainly not of predominant Spanish descent.
