Many in the Republican Party don’t understand the political ramifications of amnesty. If they did, they wouldn’t support it.

GOP reform advocates don’t understand that Democrats are pushing immigration reform because they want the country to turn permanently Democrat and to lurch leftward and unhook from America’s founding principles of individual liberty and limited government.

The problem is these former illegal aliens and their children won’t even see the GOP narrative. Culture is a more powerful force than reason, and certainly more powerful than the Republican Party’s ability to generate and penetrate with a narrative. Race groups like LULAC have built a cultural edifice around these populations that no RNC Growth and Opportunity Project tweet will penetrate.

The closest thing to a “victory” from the moderate pro-amnesty wing of the GOP usually consists of being subsumed by the agenda of the left.

That isn’t a victory. That’s eradication.

Instead of a Republican or conservative narrative, the former illegal aliens, now American citizens, will see the narrative created by folks like the four individuals who landed in my email box today.

A left-wing group sent me an email announcing a crop of “FirstGEN Fellows” to work on immigration issues. These are the people who want the GOP-driven immigration amnesty. Let’s meet them. First, Genesis Garfio. From the press release:
