Clinton Tops in Hispanic Outreach Efforts

[William769]

Senator Hillary Clinton and former Governor Mitt Romney each lead their opponents when it comes to the depth and strength of their current Hispanic voter outreach efforts. Both have competent Spanish-language sections on their website, both have aggressive Hispanic media relations efforts, both employ some heavy-duty Hispanic staff or strategists and both work with high-profile Latino surrogates.

In Clinton's case, that includes a slew of elected officials and high-profile Latino activists.

Former National Council of La Raza president Raul Yzaguirre is the co-chair of the Clinton campaign and travels the country speaking on the Senator's behalf. "Clearly, she has done very, very well. The national polls for Latinos show that we are over 60 percent among Democrats and doing very, very well among all Latino voters,” says Yzaguirre.

Mitt Romney has sent his Spanish-speaking son Craig to South Florida several times. Craig has also voiced over themost recent of three Spanish-language radio ad campaigns that have aired in Miami.

1. Hence her unwillingness to take a position on the illegal immigration question.

:shrug:

11. If you are referring to the debate -

It was not an immigration question - it was an identification question.

Big difference - one is a federal issue the other, and question she was asked, is a state question. Last time I looked she is not in the N.Y. legislature.

2. No tiene sentido a mí.

:-) :hi:

3. Doesn't seem anything does to you.

:shrug:

5. De nada, señor. - I always can count on your thoughtful nature and

magnanimous outreach to those who do not see "eye to eye" with you. ;) ... :spray:

[William769]

6. Well I always try to reach out to people who don't see at all.

4. NAFTA?

So is she going to push to abolish NAFTA? Or is her intention to keep the status quo?

:shrug:

9. Her position on NAFTA is the same as Obama, Edwards, Biden

and all the others except Kucinich.

Maybe you should learn about the candidates before you start hating them.

[Popol Vuh]

10. Touché

Maybe you shouldn't be so presumptuous. FYI I don't hate Hillary, I simply don't agree with her or trust her. Also, FYI I don't support the other candidates either. Kucinich is the closest in my choice, but, I have some problems with him as well - but nothing like the other candidates.

Maybe you should learn about a person before being so presumptuous.



Peace.
Popol...

12. But I presumed correctly

You are hostile to HRC and you did assume her position on NAFTA was somehow different than the others.

So how is this a lesson or me on not being presumptous? You were the one who incorrectly presumed about HRC's NAFTA position, not I. The lesson here is to make educated presumptions, not ignorant ones.

[Popol Vuh]

13. What the fuck are you talking about?

Where did I mention anything about the other candidates supporting or not supporting NAFTA? Again you're incorrectly being presumptuous. First it was an incorrect assumption that I hate Hillary. Now its an incorrect assumption about the meaning behind my leaving out remarks of the other candidates in a thread about Hillary. That's your blind obsession toward Hillary causing you to make ignorant presumptions not unlike the ones we laugh at the freepers making.

Here's a little clue for you. If its a thread about Hillary, expect comments to be directed toward Hillary. If its a thread about Edwards, expect comments to be directed towards Edwards. If its a thread about Obama, expect comments to be directed towards Obama. Is that simple enough for you?

LOL.....no wonder why you're a Hillary groupie.

7. Reach out and get Bill Richardson as your running mate, Hillary!

Clinton/Richardson '08 will destroy any team the GOP can muster.
