Meg Whitman: GOP needs to grow up on immigration

Speaking at a George Bush Institute conference in Dallas, California’s recent losing GOP candidate for governor Meg Whitman said the GOP has it all wrong on immigration–or at least has the language wrong.

She told blogger Ruben Navarette, Jr., who writes at pajamasmedia.com, that demonizing Latinos is not the way to go if Republicans want to lead on the issue.

“My view is that the immigration discussion, the rhetoric the Republican Party uses, is not helpful; it’s not helpful in a state with the Latino population we have,” Whitman said during a brief interview following a speech at a George W. Bush Institute conference on the economy. “We as a party are going to have to make some changes, how we think about immigration, and how we talk about immigration.”
