    Default A Hispanic Voter Boom

    Between 1990 and 2000, the Hispanic population grew by over 57 percent, from 22.4 million to 35.3 million, according to the Census Bureau. In 2010, the population is expected to grow by another 41 percent, to 49.7 million, making up just over 16 percent of the country as a whole (based on Census projections from 2008).

    There is no such thing as an "Anchor Baby".
    American citizens must be 21 to sponsor their parents into the United States. If the parents were undocumented, they must return to the country of origin for 10 years before re-applying. Cancellation of deportation can be considered for only those who have been in the United States for 10 years with a limit of 4,000 applicants per year.

    Thus there is no immediate incentive to seek legalization through a birth of a child.

    The US Census is just a head count of everyone in the United States regardless of status.

    So basically you are saying that 80% of the illegals counted are hispanic. That would explain the large increase.

    Yes, But by coming here illegally they are eligible for WIC.
    A certain number are able to request relief for deportation.
    Also that Anchor baby will be able to go to college and get aid at the in State level. So they are in fact anchored here and getting benefits from being the parents of Criminals.

    We don't know because it was not on the census questionnaire.

    I'm presume the DHS could determine the number by those who stayed beyond their visa mandates. Since the United States is one of the few countries that does not have a exit immigration controls, even that number may be not accurate.

    US Citizenship is not required to get WIC. But you must be Pregnant, or breastfeeding a baby under 1 year of age, or had a baby in the past six months. Parents, step-parents, guardians, and foster parents of infants and children under the age of 5 can apply for their children.

    Its just milk. How much federally subsidized dairy products get spoiled after the expiration date.

    A certain number are able to request relief for deportation.
    Only 4,000 per year after they have proven to be in the United States for 10 years.

    Also that US Citizens will be able to go to college and get aid at the in State level
    Depending on which state, you must be a state resident to get in-state tuition. Some states in the Big Ten allows for reciprocal in-state benefits.

    Hence the driving incentive to push out an anchor baby ASAP.

    How do Hispanics generally vote? Is there a clear consensus towards voting for one party, or is it rather balanced?
