2. Unless you are a Cuban
Majority of Cubans in Miami are Repukes. Bay of Pigs thing. They can't let it go.

3. They are the swing voters of the next 20 years
If either side can dominate that vote, they will dominate the nation.

An interesting demographic because economically, they would tend to support Democratic positions more, but as a group, they are more pro-life than average, and also own small businesses at a higher rate than others, and both of those groups vote overwhelmingly Republican.

It will be an interesting fight.

5. It's one the Democrats will have a good chance at winning
Maybe making a Hispanic a prominent figure in national politics would help.
