A Race for the Future: How Conservatives Can Break the Liberal

A Race for the Future: How Conservatives Can Break the Liberal Monopoly on Hispanic Americans

A landmark work examining the impact of Hispanic immigration on American politics, with a blueprint for what conservatives must do to recapture the American electorate.
Â
Since 1965, millions of people have come to this country from Latin America and the Caribbean, seeking freedom and the chance to make a better life. Now accounting for more than 16 percent of the population, HisÂpanics have emerged as a decisive voting bloc that overwhelmingly skews liberal as they influence pivotal electoral races. But it doesnâ€™t have to be that way forever.
Â
In A Race for the Future, Mike Gonzalez describes what the term Hispanic means, correcting the erroneous assumption that it is a homogenous group and presenting an un- varnished look at the challenges each nationÂalityâ€”Mexican, Puerto Rican, Dominican, and many othersâ€”faces in America.
Â
Despite their growing political power, HisÂpanics have largely been kept separate from mainstream America, and many of them are consigned to an underclass status. A Race for the Future reveals exactly how bureaucratic decisions that encourage public assistance and discourage assimilation hinder Hispanics and allow them to be politically monopolized by progressives.
Â
Gonzalez shows how conservatives can begin to reverse this damaging trajectory by supporting policies that would help Hispanics thriveâ€”education choice, family values, and financial freedom.
Â
By returning to their core values of community, industry, and independence, conservatives can actively court the vital Hispanic vote. The fate of too many key battleground states, from Texas to Floridaâ€”analyzed in depth hereâ€”depends on the Rightâ€™s ability to successfully do just that.

A powerful take on a rapidly changing and diverse community, A Race for the Future is a much-needed course correction on how our country can successfully enable Hispanics to flourish while standing firm on our principles.
