Hispanics, women help Hillary

(via Washington Post) · January 20, 2008 · 8:55 AM

Washington Post writers Paul Kane and Jonathan Weisman find that Hillary Clinton's win in Nevada is owed to her ties to the Latino community and to female voters.

    maybe women and latinos will see why they should have considered Senator Obama --

    Link above is today's speech at Ebenezer Baptist Church (MLK church)

    we all have more in common than what separates us

  2. I'm a bit confused about how Hispanics tend to vote. Not that i want to clump everybody together, but it seems that many Hispanics vote very differently from Blaks.

    The group that face lag behind in our society in many areas are not united. Why is that hispanics do not like Black candidates? I belive that many Hispanics have intense dislike for Blacks.

    I also believe that many Hispanics love being led by Whites and have an inferiority complex. Why would you vote for someone who want to put you down? It seems to me that many Hispanics just hear what they want to hear and don't think at all.

  3. The relationship between Hispanics and Whites generally is pretty tight probably because similarities between the two cultures is much closer than it is between Blacks and Hispanics.

    In fact that tends to be the case between other cultures (races) and Whites. I am not sure why - seems to be Bliblical

  4. Who paid for the signs the culinary workers are using? They are very expensive signs and I am sure the union didn't pay for them.
    I support my union
    I support Hillary

  5. I really thought the Hispanic women were smarter than that. What they failed to understand was that a white woman will say Anything to get their vote. If Hillary gets control of our lives we'll all wish we were in South America.

    Obama doesn't care about women and children. Check his voting record. He voted against the Head Start program. He voted against getting more help to pregnant women, mothers and kids programs on the same day that he voted to give a million dollars to preserve woodstock. He voted against healthcare that would have covered all children in the United States and he voted against health insurance for kids whose parents draw Social Security.

    When asked why he doesn't salute the american flag....he response was that he does salute it.... sometimes. He voted against the Desecration of the American Flag Act, stating that to burn our flag was just a "freedom of expression'.

    Check his voting record. He votes less than 25% of the time, but when it comes to women and children he almost always casts a "Nay" vote. Again check his voting record.

  7. Pattydarling,
    Go directly to the source www.barackObama.com to get accurate facts... don't believe the lies. Hear him speak, read his plans, learn the truth. This eletion is way too important to be spreading misinformation.
