ParticipantThis tickles my curiosity. I have driven through Hemet/San Jacinto a few times and didn’t see anything unusual. They are surely not highly desireable places to live. But if you want some perspective, see what it feels to live in Cudahy

ParticipantHispanic immigrants were targeted by Pete Wilson
For sake of accuracy, Prop 187 was against Illegal Immigrants and not Hispanics or other immigrants. I don't see much sense in calling illegal immigrants as immigrants and complaining every action to inconvenience them as immigrant bashing.

ParticipantUS is much different now from WW II days. During WW II days, racial segregation was completely legal, even in military. Today, US is extremely diverse, highly tolerant with more than even protection extended to “minorities” { Affirmative action, Voting rights etc., }. So, I think the fear of ABC/Chinese bashing is not very rational. Now, if you are in Mississippi, Alabama… etc., well, you would be already aware of how they look upon “outsiders”.

ParticipantAmericans have economy on the brain
WASHINGTON (CNN) – The state of the economy is the number-one issue on the minds of Americans as the presidential election approaches, according to a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll released Wednesday morning.
Eighty-two percent of Americans said the economy will be extremely or very important to their vote for president. Economic conditions edged out Iraq by two points, with 80 percent of those surveyed saying that the war is ‘extremely or very important’ to their vote.
Also, among the top five issues on the public’s mind when contemplating their next vote for president are health care (76 percent), terrorism (76 percent), and Iran (73 percent).
The state of the overall economy weighed more heavily on the minds of voters than specific economic issues such as gas prices (67 percent), poverty (65 percent), taxes (63 percent) and immigration (61 percent).
The CNN/Opinion Research Corporation telephone poll of 1,024 American adults was conducted over the weekend and had a sampling error of plus-or-minus 3 percentage points.
