And, remind them that them that the demographic with highest Unemployment Rate in the nation are Latinos.

Not so. According to the July BLS statistics, "Among the major worker groups, the unemployment rate for Hispanics (10.3 percent) edged down in July, while the rates for adult men (7.7 percent), adult women (7.5 percent), teenagers (23.8 percent), whites (7.4 percent), and blacks (14.1 percent) showed little or no change. The jobless rate for Asians was 6.2 percent in July (not seasonally adjusted), little changed from a year earlier.

Black unemployment rates have historically always been higher than any other group, including Hispanics.

Well, Ted Cruz, former Solicitor General to the Supreme Court, who is Latino and just won the GOP nomination for the U.S. Senate from Texas, was on O’Reilly last night. He said the highest Unemployment rate in the nation was in the Latino Community. Just quoting him. He could be wrong.
