Great to have you on the program, sir. Hi.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Mega dittos.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Thank you, sir.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Quick question. How do you see the pending demographic shift in this country working for the GOP with the shift to more and more Hispanic voters who are traditionally Democrat-leaning.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125109.Par.89380.ImageFile_57914581387c6.jpg\" width=\"265\" height=\"484\" class=\"alignright\"\/>RUSH: How do I see that affecting Republicans, did you say?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yeah, in the future. You know, with the Democrat shift going to more and more Hispanic or to just traditionally Democrat, how do you see the GOP fighting that and molding their message to gain some of that demographic vote?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Very simply. You talk about unconventional wisdom, this is it. In fact I was in a conversation not long ago with a high-ranking Republican and a high-ranking Democrat, and they were talking about reelect 2012 and what each party was gonna have to do with this group and that group and this group and what they had to do to get the votes of this group and I held up my hand, and I said, &#8220;You know what, I don\u2019t understand you guys. I can\u2019t relate to you. That\u2019s why I couldn\u2019t be in politics \u2019cause I don\u2019t look at people this way.&#8221; I think human beings are human beings, and I would go after the Hispanic vote the same way I\u2019d go after the white vote. I\u2019d go after the Hispanic vote the same way I\u2019d go after the female vote. What I would not do is take a group and say, &#8220;Okay, what do you guys want? Oh, you want X, okay, fine, I\u2019ll give you that, here\u2019s my speech for you,&#8221; and next go over to the women, &#8220;What do you women want? Well, okay, here\u2019s my speech for you,&#8221; then hope the other guys don\u2019t hear it. <\/p>\n<p>I couldn\u2019t categorize the country: the Hispanics, they have a tendency to vote Democratic, because of what? Okay what do we have to do therefore to get those people? I couldn\u2019t do it. That\u2019s why I will stay here and be on the radio. And I told these two guys, these ranking Republicans and Democrats, who were basically asking me similar opinions to your question, I said, &#8220;I can\u2019t answer it that way because I don\u2019t look at the country this way. I don\u2019t look at this country as group A, group B, group C. I think a message of individual liberty, freedom, rugged individualism, basic conservatism, the message of founding of this country will appeal to every human being who hears it if the message is presented with no excuses with confidence, energy and leadership.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>So I\u2019m sorry. I\u2019m sure I\u2019m letting you down with your question. But I really don\u2019t have an answer. &#8216;Cause I would not pander, I would not say, &#8220;Okay, we\u2019ve got Hispanics, whatever somebody\u2019s gonna tell me they want.&#8221; &#8220;Well, Mr. Limbaugh, this is why you will never win an election because the Hispanics want amnesty for every Spanish speaking person.&#8221; No, they don\u2019t. I don\u2019t believe that\u2019s true. If every Spanish speaking person in this country wants amnesty for illegals, I\u2019ll eat my hat. I just don\u2019t believe that. And if that\u2019s what they want, there\u2019s no hope the Republicans can ever get them because if the Republicans offer that, they lose their base. <\/p>\n<p>And I think all these questions are actually traps, and I gave you people a little insight not long ago about how I think and I gotta be very careful here &#8212; consultants in the broadcast business can do harm, particularly in television. And I think political consultants can do the same kind of harm because what they\u2019ll apparently do quite readily is decide that candidate A can\u2019t be himself on issue A. Go ahead and be yourself on issue B, but on issue C, no, we gotta come up with something else for you to say. This is why there is so much timidity in candidates, why there is such a reluctance to be forthright and honest, because somebody\u2019s told \u2019em, &#8220;If you say that you\u2019re gonna anger that group over there.&#8221; I can\u2019t do that, as one who does not look at people as victims. I do not look at people as members of groups.<\/p>\n<p>When I do this radio program I guaran-damn-tee you I have never once said, &#8220;Okay, how do I attract the 18-year-old crowd?&#8221; To the chagrin of program directors all over the country. I have never once said, &#8220;What do I need to do to attract women?&#8221; I do that naturally. I don\u2019t look at it that way. I believe people are people. I think there\u2019s some universal messages. I think good radio is good radio. Smart, honest politics is smart, honest politics. And if you have the right message for people that live in this country, want to be Americans, I don\u2019t think you need to categorize it.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Now, I want to go back to our caller in the last hour who asked me &#8212; Snerdley, it\u2019s Open Line Friday. Do you think that was a setup call? Do you think that was a call attempting to entrap me, the host? You remember the question. What should the Republicans do about the Hispanic demographic? You don\u2019t think so? Okay. He\u2019s worried that the Republicans are going to blow the Hispanic demographic. Well, he might be like a lot of people, then, who think the Republicans &#8212; this caller thinks that if we don\u2019t get the Hispanic vote that we don\u2019t win anything, and if we don\u2019t get the Hispanic vote, that we\u2019re never going to win. So how would I advise the GOP to get the Hispanic vote? And you heard my answer. <\/p>\n<p>Now, that again, you talk about being gamed and being set up, unfortunately the media is setting that premise, and we\u2019ve got people on our side that just fall right for it, are willing to accept the premise and go into a 100% defensive mode. But I\u2019ll just say again, I\u2019m not the one to answer that question because I don\u2019t look at it that way, and I guess this is one of the reasons why I could never do politics. I just don\u2019t have the ability to categorize people. I don\u2019t have the ability to tailor a message for a finite group of people and then another message for somebody over here or that group. I\u2019m not made that way. I couldn\u2019t do it with a free conscience. And I don\u2019t think I would be genuine at all, so I couldn\u2019t do it. <\/p>\n<p>Hispanics do not vote in lockstep. In Texas they vote Republican. They vote in droves for Republicans in Texas. Now, if I recall correctly, Democrats got 60% of the Hispanic vote in the 2010 midterms. We\u2019ll have to double-check that. But that\u2019s only 60%. The premise of the caller was that we get none of it. Okay, so we got 40% of the Hispanic vote in the midterms and we weren\u2019t even campaigning, we didn\u2019t even have a message. That vote was purely anti-Obama. That vote was purely anti-Democrat. So 40% of the Hispanics, on their own, voted against Democrats. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125109.Par.4584.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"250\" class=\"alignright\"\/>See, I believe &#8212; and you may call me naive &#8212; but I believe Hispanics want jobs, too. And I\u2019m pretty sure Hispanics have to buy gasoline. And I know that they have to buy hamburger. (interruption) I have just been asked if I understand the fear that if we\u2019re not careful, the Democrats could coalesce the Hispanic population as they have the black population and end up getting 90% of the Hispanic vote every election, and if we don\u2019t do something, the Republicans don\u2019t do something as a party, then the Democrats are gonna succeed at that. No, I don\u2019t concede that. I don\u2019t concede anything. I do not concede anything. I don\u2019t concede any segment of the audience doing this program. <\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m sorry, folks, I don\u2019t think this way. I know that they buy hamburger. I know they buy gasoline. I know that they need health care. I know we\u2019ve got some stereotypes that Democrats are trying to turn as many of them into dependents. I know that\u2019s going on, there\u2019s no question that that\u2019s the battle. The thing is, I don\u2019t think we have to convince Hispanics or any other group to become conservative because reality will do that. Ultimately that will happen. It\u2019s one of the many advantages of being on the right side of the truth. It\u2019s racists like Harry Reid who say that people of Hispanic heritage will never vote Republican. We don\u2019t say that. Dingy Harry is out saying things like that. We are a party of converts. <\/p>\n<p>You know, once upon a time, ladies and gentlemen, it was an indisputable truth that Southerners would never vote Republican. It was also an indisputable truth that Catholics would never vote Republican. Now, the bad news for the Democrats regarding Hispanics and blacks and any other minority that they pander to is that eventually people get tired of being forever doomed to being helpless and poor and downtrodden. At some point everybody ultimately wants to take their fate in their own hands. Now, I know what you\u2019re shouting at me. &#8220;Wait a minute, this hasn\u2019t happened in the black population.&#8221; Yeah, it hasn\u2019t. I think that\u2019s a special consideration, and I do not see the same set of circumstances existing with the Hispanic population here that existed with the black population. We\u2019ve never had Hispanic slavery, for example. We do not have institutionalized hatred of this country being taught in Hispanic households. <\/p>\n<p>We don\u2019t have to give up on this. There\u2019s no reason to cede this. The Democrat Party does not like independent thinkers, and they don\u2019t like people who want to take fate in their own hands and run their own lives. I might remind you, it was a conservative Hispanic who beat Harry Reid\u2019s son for governor of Nevada. So I don\u2019t fall for all of this conventional wisdom business. I\u2019m just telling you, I believe that I could go where Obama went. I believe I could go to El Paso, and I believe I could do a standard Rush to Excellence appearance, and I\u2019ll bet you I would have no problems being appreciated, being applauded, being understood, without having to pander one time to \u2019em. Just talk about America, as founded, the freedom, the prosperity, the opportunities, how it\u2019s accessed, how it\u2019s happened, give examples. They may not have heard it before. They may not be accustomed to it. (interruption) Well, anywhere, Snerdley. Los Angeles. I just said El Paso because that\u2019s where Obama went. (interruption) Well, yeah. I\u2019ve routinely done it in Los Angeles. Well, not routinely, but in the early days when I was doing the Rush to Excellence Tour. <\/p>\n<p>My point with this is that I believe that the message of conservatism is a universal pro-human message. It is the essence of what this country is all about. And I believe that Hispanics, there are enough of them that want to be genuine Americans and that they can be reached. I don\u2019t believe this notion that every damn one of them wants to be a member of the welfare state. I just don\u2019t accept it. I know that\u2019s the battle, the Democrats trying to create as many dependent people as possible. So I may not be the guy to give you the answer you want on how to politically deal with various demographics, how to get the Hispanic vote, \u2019cause I don\u2019t think that way, which is why I am not in politics.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: San Antonio, Texas. This is Nick, and it\u2019s great to have you with us on the EIB Network, sir. Hello.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125109.Par.78179.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignright\"\/>CALLER: Same here, Rush. It\u2019s the greatest honor to speak with you right now, for me being a Hispanic man and openly saying I\u2019m the biggest fan of you. I want to get on the topic because I heard you on the radio right now and it just really got my blood going in a good way, but yet in a way to a point where when I was listening to you, it\u2019s like, how much does Rush really know about his fan base of the Hispanics? I mean what I\u2019m trying to get at is just like, Obama\u2019s promised so much to the Hispanic voters but yet he\u2019s never done nothing for them. Your word is actually being heard by the Hispanics. You\u2019re being heard by us.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, what was it I said that got your blood going in a good way?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, just, you know, hearing you, you know, the Hispanic voters, you know, just on that &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Let me help out. Was it when I was saying in response to a question, how would we protect the Hispanic demographic &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: &#8212; as Republicans, I don\u2019t look at \u2019em that way, they\u2019re Americans, they\u2019re human beings, I just approach them with the right message, I don\u2019t look at people as members of groups? Is that what you\u2019re referring to?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes, sir. Yes, sir.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, thank you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: See, the thing is, you know, Hispanics, we\u2019re not really into the whole politics thing, but we do listen to what the politicians are saying, and that\u2019s what the words, for example, Obama, his words are what got the Hispanics to vote for him. But yet we don\u2019t ask for much.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, look human nature is human nature. This is the big problem with the Democrat Party and liberalism. I don\u2019t care who they\u2019re speaking to, they\u2019ll promise anybody anything. And they do look at people, in fact, they want people to be victims, and they want people to think they\u2019re victims because the Republicans have made them that, and the Democrats will say, &#8220;We\u2019ll give you this. We\u2019ll give you that. We\u2019ll protect you here.&#8221; Doesn\u2019t matter whether they follow through on it. I don\u2019t know why they still get 90% of the black vote. Black people, for as long as I\u2019ve been alive, have been complaining about the same injustices and the same economic problems. They\u2019ve been voting Democrat for as long as I\u2019ve been alive and they\u2019re not improving. The Congressional Black Caucus goes up and complains to Obama, &#8220;Look, male unemployment, African male unemployment, 54%, what are you doing?&#8221; They want more money. They\u2019re not innocent here. They\u2019re just looking for more money for themselves, but the point is it isn\u2019t getting better. The Democrats don\u2019t make life better for anybody other than themselves.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Right. Agreeable. But, see, here\u2019s the problem with the Republicans. They need to step up, because, like I said &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: And do what?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, they need to start going out there and they need to start being aggressive. They need to be aggressive, especially if they want to start winning back their votes. I mean I\u2019m pretty sure that Hispanics never really gone with the conservative way and they\u2019ve always listened to the liberal, but still, time to step up.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, but &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Go out there and start attacking and start going after these votes, because we Hispanics, even the gay votes, it don\u2019t matter, any votes out there that were turned on by Obama\u2019s words, they\u2019re not there no more. Now step up and start attacking. Go after it. You know, don\u2019t let this vote go away \u2019cause one thing of experience, Rush, is that once a Hispanic gives up on a politician, they won\u2019t go back and vote. They won\u2019t. And I know this from experience because I\u2019ve always preached to my parents, my family &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: &#8212; we need to keep on going, we need to vote.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, here\u2019s what I know. Hispanic governor of New Mexico, Hispanic governor, Nevada, Hispanic Senator, Florida, all Republican. This notion that they\u2019re just one way of thinking is absolutely wrong.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You know, whether you\u2019re talking about Hispanics or any other quasi-minority group, one of the truths of life is that the Republicans are never gonna be able to outbid the Democrats with freebies. It\u2019s never going to happen. To go down that road is an absolute loser, a total waste of resources and time. It\u2019s a waste to even make the Hispanics or whatever minority group you\u2019re talking to think that you\u2019re gonna enter the contest. There\u2019s no way. The Democrats will give away the country to get those votes, which is what is happening. It is a mistake to pander to minority voters in that way, period. <\/p>\n<p>This is one of many reasons why I\u2019ve always disagreed with the Republican idea of illegal immigration, how to reform it, which is basically amnesty. It\u2019s a race for those voters and it\u2019s disingenuous. It\u2019s an insult if you ask me. I think these people are smart enough to figure out what\u2019s happening. When you hear Obama talk about a path to citizenship, which, you know, at a campaign stop at the Hispanic prayer breakfast yesterday, Obama said a path to citizenship is a moral imperative. That\u2019s amnesty. That\u2019s what he means. Now, just think about that for a moment. Think about how out of whack Obama\u2019s moral compass is if he really believes that, if he really believes that amnesty is a moral imperative. Well, whether he means it or not, he\u2019s saying it, and he wants them to believe he means it. <\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no way the Republicans can outbid that. It is silly, therefore, to even get in the game under that pretext using those rules. And I fear that many on the Republican side think that that\u2019s how they are going to have to compete for Hispanic voters. The Democrats, the aggressors in any conflict set the rules. The Democrats are offering the store, Democrats are offering freebie here, freebie there, whatever. Institutionally the Republicans can\u2019t outbid because they will never give more than the democracy would be willing to \u2019cause the Democrats will give the country away, in terms of destroying our fiscal solvency. They\u2019ll do it. We can\u2019t. We won\u2019t. It\u2019s silly to even target Hispanic voters that way. I wouldn\u2019t. <\/p>\n<p>Just the way I approach each of you as members of this program\u2019s audience, and that is with a profound respect for your intelligence, your awareness, the fact that you\u2019re informed and involved, that you\u2019re engaged, and to not be condescending in any way, shape, manner, or form, to look down upon you or to think that you\u2019re incapable of understanding something I would say. I think there\u2019s too much of this that goes on in politics in terms of wooing voters, and of course the Democrats have it as a policy, to dumb down. They did it in the education system, and this has to stop. And you don\u2019t compete with it by being Democrat-lite. It isn\u2019t gonna work. They\u2019re not gonna be persuaded anyway. Meaning whatever minority happens to be the target, they simply won\u2019t be persuaded. The Democrats are who they are. There\u2019s plenty of evidence of it.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re not gonna get all of them, don\u2019t misunderstand. The objective here would be to bust up the near monopoly, which is not now. I mean the Democrats in the midterms in November got 60% of the Hispanic vote. That\u2019s not 90. That\u2019s not the percentage that the Democrats get of the black vote. What do you think would happen in a presidential race if the Democrat candidate only got 75 or 80% of the black vote instead of the 92%? It would make a pretty big difference. <\/p>\n<p>END TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>*Note: Links to content outside RushLimbaugh.com usually become inactive over time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: This is Jeff in St. Louis as we kick off.
