McCain Advisor: "Think Mexico First"

"We are betting that the Mexican-American population in the United States... will think Mexico FIRST! ...But now I want the third generation, the seventh generation, I want them all to think 'Mexico FIRST'," so said Dr. Juan Hernandez on the popular broadcast Nightline, June 7, 2001.

Anyone who has seen the dual-citizened Hernandez in media interviews knows that his rhetoric is offered with forked tongue smoothness. As a former advisor to Mexico's former president Vicente Fox, his credentials for having less than 100% loyalty to America's interests is easy to point out.

With the Florida state flag as a backdrop, Republican presidential hopeful Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., speaks at a campaign event at the Borini Theater, Kings Point Clubhouse, in Sun City Center, Fla., Saturday, Jan. 26, 2008. (AP Photo/Charles Dharapak) Related Media: VIDEO: McCain Talks Tough on Insurance and FEMA He has in his own words defended Mexican bus operators bringing illegal aliens to America. He is on record as supporting driver's licenses for illegals in the U.S., in addition he has advocated vociferously for easier methods for illegals to send money earned in the U.S. via special banking agreements to Mexican citizens, as well as advocating for the implementation of mortgage programs for illegals who are working in America. Sum it up by saying that on nearly every issue in which the American interest was at odds with the interest of Mexican illegals, or Mexican nationals - Hernandez sided against America.

So why should anyone care?

Well for starters he has been closely related to the McCain campaign for President 2008. Which is troubling for many reasons.

McCain, if elected, will sell us out for cheap labor.

"Hernandez is a “non-paid” adviser."

So what? He is still an adviser.

“He is an outspoken Evangelical. I’ve met the guy, he is likeable, like so many public people are.”

I have seen this character multiple times on TV but never had the “pleasure” of a personal visit. From what I have seen of him on TV, he is nothing more than a smarmy snake. He smiles warmly and nods as he tells the US that we cannot EXISIT without “pioneers from Mexico, with or without documents.” If I were to ever cast a movie with a person playing the devil, I would have Dr. Hernandez on the set in a heart beat! This creep is nothing more than Geraldo Rivera with a smoother demeanor.

He may be an Evangelical, but he is NOT an evangelist for Christ! He is an evangelist for criminals, theives, murders and for the existence for a slave class in the US UNTIL they bleed us dry.

He literally makes me sick.

Well, you try to get McCain the nomination, and I’ll try to get Romney the nomination, and we’ll see which one of us succeeds.

“So what? He is still an adviser.”

Think. A paid position is an additional indication of importance. Anyone accepted for their willingness to work on behalf of a voting block can potentially be called an advisor. Being an advisor just mean that they’re recognized as can bring something to the campaign and aren’t so disdained as to require them to reject affiliation.

I guess we need to cut back on the Mexicans and bring in more Somali Muslims.
