Summary

Latino voters begin to shift their historical partisan allegiance away from the Democratic Party toward Republicans. What Democrats have treated as a bloc is rapidly splitting along economic and academic lines, with working, non-college degreed citizens more strongly toward the GOP. How can conservatives take advantage of Latino affinity for faith, family, economic freedom and schools that educate rather than indoctrinate? Scott Ott, Stephen Green, and Bill Whittle create five new episodes of Right Angle each week. We're funded and fueled by our Members, who create their own content in the Member-written blog, forums and comments at https://BillWhittle.com When you get to our site, see if you can figure out how to become a Member.

0:00.0	We're all about individualism. We're all about the dignity of the individual.
0:06.7	Bienvenito al Partido Republican, my amigo. Hi, I'm Scott out with Bill Whittle and
0:11.3	Stephen Green in this episode of Right Angles brought to you by the members at Bill Whittle.com.
0:15.6	And gentlemen, according to the Wall Street Journal and some smart political consultants and
0:19.6	pollsters, Latino voters are starting
0:23.4	to experience the kind of division that Democrats are famous for, but Democrats aren't going to
0:27.8	like this one.
0:29.1	Stephen Green, what's happening is that Latino voters are starting to split along economic
0:34.2	lines and working class, non-college educated, or rather, I should say, people
0:39.9	who do not have a college degree, they may have gone to some college, are tending to move
0:46.0	toward Republicans. And it's not an insignificant shift. If you look back, first of all,
0:51.9	there are a lot of voters involved in this. There are 16 million
0:55.1	some Latino voters in 2020, about 10% of the electorate. Joe Biden got 63% of that vote in the 2020
1:05.0	election. However, that's down 8% from the 2016 election. And if you look at non-college degreed Latinos, it's down 11%.
1:16.0	In other words, there's an even greater shift among them.
1:19.3	They're starting to move toward Republicans largely because of a couple of key issues.
1:25.2	It's faith.
1:26.3	It's family.
1:31.3	It's the economy, stupid, and it's the schools.
1:39.2	Put ice the cake with the fact that Democrats have never fulfilled their promise to find a pathway to citizenship for for immigrants. And you have a recipe for what some say are the new Reagan Democrats. Steve Green, what do you think
1:46.4	Republicans should do to embrace this opportunity? Wow. Well, number one, they probably need to
