Desperate they are, frantic and violent they will become.

In short, because Sen Cruz is conservative.

It's hard to keep track of which "Catholic" media outlets are leftist and which aren't. This one's clearly CINO.

I'm very disappointed.

Strange.

The alternative is continued murder, rape,
beheadings, slavery and crucifixions\
from Iraq to Syria to Egypt to America.

Apparently Mario T. García and his employer
supports those felonies and ATROCITIES.

Mario Garcia is hyperventilating. I hope he has a brown paper sack handy.

“Secondly, Cruz is out of step with most Latinos on immigration.”

Isn’t it funny that every ‘Cinco de Mayo’ all these Mexicans celebrate Mexico, (which btw, is NOT the correct reason for Cinco de Mayo) but they leave it and come live here.

And HATE the idea of going home to MEXICO.

Mexican Americans have famous conservatives. Is this a racist rant? That conservatives are whites and not representative of latinos?

They understand who feels for them and who supports programs that benefit them.

And so there you have it. It's all about "what's in it for me" politics. This will be our destruction if we allow it to continue.

Those who see themselves as “Latinos”, and think it’s the job of the government to give them stuff won’t vote for any Republican no matter how much they pander. Those who think of themselves as “Americans” and just want a chance to succeed on their own will without having to be pandered to.

Cruz took 40% of Latino voters when he ran for office in Texas. He will take at least that percentage of Latino voters and likely more in November 2016.

This is the Left one --- National Catholic Reporter --- which Fr.Z calls "The Fishwrap". The conservative one is National Catholic Register.

"Why Latinos won’t, shouldn’t support Cruz for president"

Well, if "Latinos" want to continue living under abject poverty let them continue voting for Democrats. Hell! If we don't close our borders we'll be living in South America anyway. Yippy Skippy!

“Latino” and “Hispanic” are made up words. They are all from somewhere; Mexico mostly but also El Salvador, San Salvador, Ecuador, Columbia, Peru, Brazil, Chile, Argentina, Costa Rica, Panama, etc.

And don’t call an American of Cuban descent a “Latino” or “Hispanic”. They take offense to the term.

And that was his first election victory, next time he runs for any office he will get more votes.

Next week Rubio and Paul will be in the race and we will see the Obama102 press bashing them too.

What we need is rich Republicans ownership of media before we get balance in political coverage. Or the networks lose massive viewership.

Cruz isn't an authentic latino because he doesn't have the correct politics.

Liberals care about civil rights like Adolph Hitler cared about the brotherhood of nations & Mao Tse-tung cared about open public discourse.

Mexicans don’t celebrate Cinco de Mayo. It’s a minor event in their history. Now, Mexican restaurants and shops in America do of course to sell stuff.
