California is many things to the American public, namely the state acts as a popularly depicted poster child of the deeply progressive blue dystopia which many fear is the future of the United States as a whole, and which is suffering all of the expected consequences of rule by what many people would call the “radical left”. This image, while generally accurate, also obscures another: that Heritage Californians, real Californians, are a much more complex and distinct group of people than the large minority and immigrant populations they live among.
47% of White Californians voted for Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election, barely a 4-point gap with the 51% of White Californians who voted for Joe Biden. This divide, this swing vote nature, plays out in numerous other ways among White Californians. When asked to identify with a political camp 37% of White Californians identify as Conservatives, 37% identify as Liberals and 26% identify as Moderates.
In contrast 82% of Blacks in California vote blue and so do 75% of Hispanics, 76% of Asians, and 59% of other racial groups. It does not matter what camps these groups fall into on a “political identity” chart when they block vote in the same manner in each and every election.
This reality means that the politically competitive nature of the Heritage American population of California is drowned out in a sea of minority voters who practice a form of monolithic political partisanship that is alien to Americans both in California and in general. The true California is obscured by this massive diverse population and the only way to give historic Californians their voice back is to give them their home back through a policy of humane repatriation.
Today 35% of Californians are White, 39% are Hispanic, 15% of the state is Asian, 5% is Black and a final 4% of people are multi-racial Americans. Additionally, 27% of the state’s population, or about 10.5 million people, is composed of recent (first-generation) immigrants. This foreign-born population is nearly double the 14% foreign-born average for American states and represents 23% of all foreign-born people in the United States.
This foreign-born populace is the natural place to start in any attempt to repatriate recent immigrants and their descendants from California. 45% of immigrants to the state do not have US citizenship and are therefore easily removed. Canceling the visas and green cards of these non-citizens would enable the removal of some 4.725 million people, 88% of whom will be Hispanic or Asian.
Combined with the removal of the 2.6 million acknowledged illegal aliens in the state (there are many more, but we are using official statistics for this piece) the minority population of California could be reduced by some 7.3 million people without stripping anyone of their citizenship.
These actions alone would increase the historic Californian share of the state’s population from 35% today to 42.6%, a jump of some 7.6% just by removing non-citizens from the state.
As illegal aliens leave the state, and immigrants pack up to return to their homelands thanks to these policy prescriptions, the adult returnees must also be obligated to take their underage children with them. We do not support policies that result in family separation, and so our position remains that immigrants with US citizen children under the age of 18 must take their children with them upon departing for their ethnic homeland.
As such, some 750,000 K-12 students in California with illegal alien parents would leave the state with their parents, or be deported as illegal aliens themselves as is the case for 240,000 students in the state. In total 46% of children in the state of California have at least on immigrant parent and so as many as 8.6 million second-generation immigrants in the state could be asked to leave alongside their parents.
With illegal aliens, resident aliens, and non-US citizens out of the way this brings us to the very large minority population in the state that has a US passport. The most efficient method to deal with this population is through mandatory review of their citizenship and immigration paperwork, specifically in the realm of family reunification.
70% of immigrants in the United States are admitted on the basis of family ties, not for work or school. This means that a large portion of people who have acquired US citizenship are likely to have done so fraudulently. The proof for this is best demonstrated by a 2008 incident wherein the US State Department discovered, through DNA testing, that over 80% of individuals admitted into the US as a family member of a “refugee” were not related to that individual. The US government has since mandated DNA testing for refugees who request their family members come to the US, but this DNA testing mandate has not been put in place for any other category of family reunification.
By simply requiring proof that immigrants are related through marriage and birth certificates, and yes DNA testing, it is likely that more than half of naturalized US citizens in California, and the nation as a whole, could have their citizenship revoked on the grounds of fraud. Citizenship can also be revoked on the grounds of felonies committed before a person becomes naturalized.
This process could, assuming a generously low fraud rate of just 50% (and in all likelihood, the fraud rate is closer to the aforementioned 80%), result in 2.88 million naturalized immigrants in the state of California losing their US citizenship and being removed from the state and the nation.
In total, the abovementioned policies could result in the removal of some 17.145 first and second-generation immigrants from the state of California. And it is worth noting that our projections are based on the most conservative of fraud and illegal immigration figures.
Still, this process would result in the historic American population of the state increasing from 35% today to 61.2% and reduce the states population from 39.5 million today to 22.4 million people, helping to alleviate some of the severe and ongoing crises related to the state’s overpopulation such as drought, vehicle-related smog, and some of the worst traffic in the nation.
