'The America We Know and Love doesn't Exist Anymore'

 Laura Ingraham has come under attack for what many considered a racist comment.
 "In some parts of the country, it does seem like the America we know and love doesn't exist anymore," she said. "Massive demographic changes have been foisted on the American people, and they are changes that none of us ever voted for, and most of us don't like." 
   How soon in life people get married, and how many live together without getting married are among the demographic changes in America. But, so is race. How many are Hispanic is one of the demographic changes. 
   Although it might seem she was referring to a greater proportion of Hispanics, Ingraham on Thursday said, "I made explicitly clear that my commentary had nothing to do with race or ethnicity. But rather a shared goal of keeping America safe and her citizens safe and prosperous."
   If Ingraham was referring to an up shift in the Latino population, and is suggesting Latinos are making America unsafe and less prosperous, isn't she only diving deeper into trouble? Does her clarification only pile more racism on the original racism?  
   If we go back to her quote, and finish it, we find that she wasn't speaking of such things as more people living together outside marriage.
   "From Virginia to California," she said, "we see stark examples of how radically in some ways the country has changed. Now, much of this is related to both illegal, and in some cases, legal immigration that, of course, progressives love."
    It would seem that what Ingraham is saying is that it is immigration that is bringing the demographic changes, and, therefore, it is not the Latinos, themselves, who are inclined to make America unsafe and less prosperous, but just those Latinos who move in from other countries. 
   Or, maybe she is saying that those coming from outside our country and moving in have led us to be less safe and prosperous. The influx is reflected in the increase of Latinos simply because Latinos are a dominant part of the immigration, therefore, in this case, making it possible to spot the change immigration is having in America. But, if the immigrants were Caucasian, it would not be so easy to spot the change because the immigrants would be just like the rest, and therefore wouldn't show up as a change in democraphics. Is that what Ingraham is saying? I do not know. 
   Can we say, if that is what she meant, then it wasn't a racist comment?
