I'm a mostly reasonable person and willing to lend an ear to rational points well made. That said, I'm skeptical of this "Latino-Focused Bus Tour" and the use of Spanish. Frankly, I see it as an admission of defeat. How so? An admission that assimilation has largely failed and that a once-united America has devolved into a Balkanized constituencies of special interests. From my perspective, Conservatism alone is sufficient. I see no need for such niche marketing to a given ethnic segment. This is America and those who wish to partake in it should thoroughly adopt our values, our language and our cultural norms.
But I'm still willing to listen to a persuasive, logical argument from another perspective. And, in advance, I thank you in advance to taking this on if you're so willing.
for now, since it is 2:30 in the morning here, i will just say this: i agree with just about everything you posted... and in order to share that message, it may be that it must be shared in a language other than English... i get that you see it as admitting defeat... i see it as seizing an opportunity... doing what you can with what you are dealt... and it may be that most of those in this particular audience don't ever learn English... but perhaps they will see how important it is for their children to learn English... to learn to be American... in my opinion, to do no outreaching at all is admitting defeat...
i can discuss this further tomorrow... (actually, later today)... and i do appreciate your willingness to listen... your "reasonability."
