California Republicans Sue Hispanic Dem Candidate For Being Too Inspirational
A law firm with ties to the California GOP is deeply bothered to see Mexican-American Jose Hernandezs name on the ballot for U.S. Congress (that is not the joke yet, but we could probably just stop there, ha ha) because he has listed himself as astronaut on the line for his occupation. Hernandez, the son of migrant Mexican laborers, is a retired astronaut, a fact the law firm pointed out in a lawsuit filed last week. This means that Hernandez is CHEATING, by describing himself according to his career accomplishments over the span of more than say, the last week. May the Republicans suggest a more rule-abiding generalized occupational description such as Brown person instead?

Well, maybe he *was* a "businessman", but he certainly isn't anymore. Let the lawsuits begin!
