Is America becoming a Hispanic(Latino) country?

It's unbelievable! If you come to California, Texas, Florida and some southern states as a tourist, it looks like as if you were in Mexico or Cuba! The United States is becoming an Hispanic country and it's happening much faster than anyone expected! The Hispanic population is growing more quickly and dramatically than demographers had estimated! The number of white Europeans is declining cause of low birth rate in contrast the Latinos population has doubled in the past decades due to high birth rate and illegal immigration! May be 50 years from now the national anthem of the US will be sung in Spanish or the constitution will be amended to make Spanish the official language(actually the US has no official language)!

    Maybe if you bother to learn history you'll know that CALIFORNIA, TEXAS, FLORIDA, WERE FOUNDED BY SPANISH SPEAKERS AND IT WAS PART OF THE SPANISH SPEAKING WORLD UNTIL THE USA TOOK OVER IT.

    I am from Texas and there has always been mexicans here.....

    i dont know what makes u think europeans are native to this land??? white americans are vastly german and irish immigrants who got here escaping poverty and famine!

    mexicans are mostly native indians.

    I personally think the United States will not become a Hispanic/Latino country anytime soon, if ever. 63% of the US population is Non-hispanic white or European. Hispanics/Latino (of all racial backgrounds) only make up 16% of the population. African American are roughly 12%, Asians are 4% and the rest are other ethnic backgrounds. In total, that leaves 84% of the country as Non-Hispanic/Latino. We just have to learn to share. This was a nation founded on immigration after all.

    Not in the least. Most people speak English. Most Latino Americans speak English to other Latino Americans. They only speak spanish to older family members. Also, I live in San Antonio, a city which people think is only Mexicans since it's over 60% Hispanic, but 95% of the places you go, you see white people, even in places that are mostly Hispanic or African American.

    You're exaggerating extremely.

    I grew up knowing California and Texas were leveraged away from Mexico. Of course there are Hispanics all over the southwestern U.S. Many of them are from families that have lived in those regions for hundreds of years, long before the country was founded.

    Cubans fled to Miami because of Castro, Dominicans because of Trujillo and Puerto Ricans because they are a commonwealth of the United States.

    It would be wise to learn Spanish. Language always changes. England wasn't speaking English when the Normans invaded. Get used to change, or don't.

    As I know it the US has the official language of English, and still.

    But you're right, and statistics show it that America is becoming a Hispanic/Latino country, and it's because of illegals having their children here, because we have opened our doors to immigrants (and at this time more are coming from the spanish/hispanic/latino countries and their leaders aren't stopping them, they send money home), because other groups have gotten a lot of education (college, masters, doctorates) and the spanish are struggling to keep up so while in the process of doing that they're having lots of children, lots are on welfare. While those with lots of education used to have 1.5 children per couple well now they have .8 children and know that children are expensive to raise, need a quarter of a million dollars to have one kid). This too, depending on welfare is what's pulling America down.

    The United States is not going to be majority Hispanic at any time in the near future.

  • 7 years ago

    In a way yes. Then again it makes sense because the US was filled with immigrants in it's heyday. It is quite a shame to see the country go. I doubt it will become a Hispanic country, just the groups will rise and have more presence.
