Bush urges Hispanics to speak up
by Stephen Dinan
The Washington Times
President Bush yesterday told Hispanics to step into the middle of the immigration debate and make sure senators who have been bombarded with calls from opponents also hear from those who support the bill.
"There’s a lot of emotion on this issue, and it makes sense to have people from around the country come and sit down with members of Congress to talk rationally about the issue," he told those attending the Hispanic Prayer Breakfast in Washington yesterday.
He was speaking a day after the bill, which collapsed last week, was revived by the top Democrat and Republican in the Senate."Send them Back." "Build a damn wall and be done with it."

Bush's original intent is very simple; With Hispanics coming out as being the majority minority group with in the nation; bush saw the Hispanic vote as a Path for republicans to stay in power indefinitely.
It was the path that he chose for the Republican Party with out really consulting the republicans that put Him on a collision course with republican ideology.
When all is said and done? It still comes down to the numbers.
That's the reality of politics.

A little back ground on when bush came into power in 2000, when his administration took hold, bush kept out the right wing of the republican party "which created a divide with in the party".
What bush did not fore see was that there were still some right wingers with in his own administration who still held a moderate ideology, but with the underlying ideology being one of conservatism?
In other words; the Party WAS willing to change, but not at the cost of it's core ideology. That's were he ran into a WALL.
