John McCain and Barak Obama each to address major Latino gathering (La Raza)
LA Times ^ | 6/9/08 | Don Federick

San Diego usually is a fine place to be under any circumstances, but for a couple of days this July the political world will flock there for clues about one of the crucial questions in the John McCain-Barack Obama matchup: Whither the Latino vote?

The National Council of La Raza, a leading Latino civil rights and advocacy organization, announced today that both presidential contenders have accepted invitations to speak at its July 12-15 convention in San Diego. No details yet on when each will speak, but their appearances likely will be among the most important they make during the month.

For Obama, the mission is straightforward: Woo an ethnic group that is absolutely essential to his hopes of carrying several key states in November but which heavily supported his rival, Hillary Clinton, during the just-completed Democratic primary season.

That’ll be fun to watch.

Which will promise to grant the greater number of amnesties for illegals?

McCain's campaign has released the text of his La Raza speech. Here it is:

"How many square miles will you be wanting?"

This should wrap up the conservative vote for McCain.

We already have many unsuccesful imports in legal, taxpayer-supported Graybar Hiltons, hospitals and schools near you.

We do desire any more, the results are in.

La Raza is, on its face, a racist organization.

That we’ve sunk to the point that presidential nominees feel comfortable pandering to it is beyond unfortunate.

McCain will face more of a balancing act when he takes center stage

WHy?...is he going to stand on a ball & juggle?...might as well.

This is getting tiring.

Better not post this. McCain worshippers will denounce you for defacto voting Obama.

Don’t forget. It is the white folks who are “racist”. White people apparently have lost the will to survive and protect what our ancestors fought for, died for and passed to us. We are being grinded into the ground with all this race crap and most whites just mumble something about not being “racist”. Which is ludicrous. It doesn’t matter whether you are are not. They are. That is why they have race based political & advocacy groups. They don’t care whether you are or not. No matter how many times you proclaim you are not or how you try to prove you are not IT DOESN’T MATTER. The politicos embrace it all too including Mr McCain. This mantra will be pushed until all whites either surrender and in turn surrender America or stand up.

Attending a La Raza conference in 2008 is akin to attending a US Communist Party conference in 1988. Both organizations are dedicated to the destruction of the USA.

It's unbelievable any Presidential Candidate would do such a thing. Well, it used to be unbelievable. Nowadays, pandering to America's enemies obviously is OK.

I don’t think the Raza’s will be getting in line to become O-Bots. The crafter ones know who was kissing the butt of amnistía and that was “their good friend” little Juan.

"I don’t think the Raza’s will be getting in line to become O-Bots."

It could not be stated any better. It's just that simple, on so many levels.

McC and Hernandez will then quaff a liter of Absolut vodka to toast the start of Reconquista.

BACKSTORY A recent FR report indicated a Corpus Christi Sheriff is looking for 19 undocumented immigrants from Honduras who had cell phones and may be receiving help to remain hidden from authorities.

(Snort) The prevailing wage in Honduras at $3 per day.........yet they have cell phones and are able to pay the freight to get over the border?

THE REAL STORY These invaders are working for drug cartels who supply them w/ cell phones and all that is necessary to clear the way for bigtime drug smuggling.

Even as we type, Mexican and Columbian drug cartels are waging war in border towns near New Mexico to carve out their turf.

Two reasons:

(1) Drug cartels envision huge profits now that Mexican trucks are hauling on US highways--- the trucks are easily loaded up with drugs and illegal aliens (drug runners) with no fear of L/E-----b/c Bush authorized this atrocity.

(2) The US is overrun by invaders from Third World countries, who are organizing themselves into a voting bloc. They use fraudulent documents, stolen IDs and multiple addresses to register in several precincts.

The longterm plan is to takeover the US government to change the foundation of our country from the rule of law to mob rule.

Drug cartels are setting themselves up to benefit from latino mob rule.
