Latino vote could save Harry Reid and other Democrats

Latinos have no more reason to vote for Democrats than the rest of the voters.

1. AS we are all aware, while many of small businesses are in financial trouble, lots of big name companies are reluctant to expand businesses, even with adequate capital.
　
From what I understand, they might take into account that plenty of ordinary households are still facing Stagnant Income Raises & Runaway Healthcare Cost, and beyond, say, low demand.
　
Given, the choice is clear, which one is going a long way to desperately needed job boost, tax credit for 95% of middle class or others.

To my knowledge, solar industry became more cost completive with the counterparts.

Images of Boss Tweed come to mind. As they cross the border, he shakes their hands, but instead of providing a loaf of bread, he says, “We’ll get you a SS card (several if you need them) and a driver’s license. Just remember to vote Democrat!”

You will say it’s the government’s fault. We have laws on the books. If a few slip through the cracks, it’s not their fault for trying. It’s government’s fault for not enforcing its laws.

Harry Reid is a representative of government. He finds himself in a position to where enforcing these laws works to his detriment. As the Senate majority leader, he is in an important figure in determining how sharp the teeth of government are in enforcing immigration laws on the books. It’s in his interests to make those teeth as dull as possible.

Democrats make a big issue of saying that they have steps in place to where businesses can input the SS number of an applicant to verify the validity of said applicant’s “right to work.” Curious that such measures aren’t also used to determine the right to vote.

And somewhere, Boss Tweed is smiling.

Peadawg, please dial down the nativist stuff. why would American citizens “go back home and become citizens the right way”? If non-citizens are voting, whose fault is it?

Two sets of questions:
1. Is it inherently racist to presume there is a “latino vote”? Why should all Latino’s vote the same way? Are their intersts all the same? Does race trump economic status, education, citizenship, faith, conviction or past experience? Can we do better in our country than identity politics? Why is he progressive instinct to look for blocs of voters based on race or gender?
2. Is this why Obama was suggesting that Latino’s punish their “enemies”? Is that kind of rhetoric appropriate for the president to use when referring to his polictial opponents? Doesn’t that kind of language raise the question that its really the democrats who are hoping to use race as a driving issue? Is it ok for Obama to call his political opponents “enemies”? What is the long term implication of having the president of the country seeing a significant number of American citizens as his enemies? Would you be ok if the parties were reversed and a leader of the other party while he was President called you his enemy?

From MSNBC: Democrat Kendrick Meek told NBC’s TODAY show that he had discussions about the race in Florida with Clinton during the former president’s visits to the state to campaign on his behalf. But he denied that Clinton asked him to step down. “I never once told him that I was getting out and he never once asked me to get out.”
A number of media on Thursday, including Politico and CNN, reported Clinton had tried to persuade Meek to drop out of the race to prevent a win by the contest’s frontrunner, Republican Marco Rubio. “The argument was: ‘You can be a hero here. You can stop him, you can change this race in one swoop,’” a Democrat familiar with the conversations told Politico.
According to the Politico report, Meek agreed, and planned to endorse Crist, but then failed to go ahead with the withdrawal. Politico cited Clinton spokesman Matt McKenna. Meek denied there was any plan for him to drop out. He also rejected poll numbers showing him getting only about 15 percent of the vote in next Tuesday’s election.
Crist’s campaign, for its part, said in a statement: “While this story is accurate, the Governor’s focus is on uniting common-sense Democrats, independents, and Republicans behind his campaign because he is the one candidate who can defeat Tea Party extremist Marco Rubio and deliver bipartisan results for Florida in Washington.” The governor also confirmed to MSNBC’s Countdown with Keith Olbermann that the discussions did occur, saying he had “numerous phone calls” with people close to President Clinton.
You all think that the Hispanics will just vote for Harry Reid and other? They do have minds and they for the most part are more conservative than liberal…. They do not have a handout mentality…

You can certainly feel free to read between the lines (and that’s easy to do, seeing some of Cynthia’s past columns and posts). But, taking this at face value, Cynthia isn’t saying whether the LEGAL Latinos — who are the ones eligible to vote — do or do not have any valid reason to be offended by Angle’s ad. We can all have our opinions about that (and I certainly do!) but to a large degree, that’s irrelevant. The fact is, many Latino US citizens DO feel alienated, and are likely to vote for Reid.

On the other hand, I saw a summary of the Pew research, indicating that far more legal Latinos now view illegal immigration negatively, compared with just a few years ago. And i saw separate research indicating that many Latinos (and Catholics and women) who voted Democrat in the last election are expected to vote Republican this time around. Furthermore, Angle’s ad may be effective in getting more than enough non-Latino votes, from those who are fed up with the fed gov’s inability or unwillingness to effectively address the problem.

This will be a tight one, and it will be interesting to see how the Latino vote plays out.

Of course the majority will alway’s claim qualification but the fact is when the opportunities present themselves the priviledge is normally reserved for the majority.

I’ve heard the arguements time and time again, but majority preference not minority inability is the reason for lack of representation in many areas.

A large number of Nevada ballots already had Harry Reid’s name checked. In Arizona, an off-shoot group of SEIU dropped off almost 3,000 voter registrations on the deadline day…and over 60% of those were fraudulent due to forged signature, invalid addresses, and registrants being illegal immigrants. And in California, elderly voters were being told to hand over their absentee ballots to strangers at the front door. (And I’m not going to pretend this just happens for one party…both parties are equally devious and dishonest.)

But there is no way Harry Reid is going to lose this election, Cynthia. In a few elections, where it would be tremendously embarrassing for the Democrats to lose…Reid, Barbara Boxer, the “Obama” senate seat in Illinois…the Republican candidate might well win the election, but will lose the vote count.

How many of those Latino people are simply moving here to escape our benevolent foreign policy, such as Reagan’s dirty war in Central America, and Bush/Clinton/Bush Plan Colombia?

The U.S. Latino population probably feels betrayed by Obama because like so many of Obama’s campaign promises, meaningful immigration reform was sacrificed to cram through Obamacare. Reid will suffer for the same reasons. Hispanic Americans are concerned about the same things as everyone else: jobs, education, violence (particularly the drug wars in Mexico),and the future for their children. Democrats are making a fatal mistake by assuming that Latinos will blindly follow because of minority status. The Labor Unions have been responsible for starting trade wars with Latin america particularly in trucking. Harry Reid is too closely associated with Obama’s failed agenda to survive. The vote is not whether or not you agree with Angle. She will win simply because she is not Harry Reid and does not support Obama.

“By a wide 60-34 percent, voters disapprove rather than approve of Obama’s handling of the economy. Fully 90 percent rate economic conditions negatively, and more than twice as many say they are worse off today compared with two years ago (36 percent) as say they are better off (16 percent).

A 55 percent majority of voters disapproves of the job Obama is doing on health care. In addition, many would like Congress to repeal the new health care law, either entirely (29 percent) or in part (29 percent). Others would like to see the law expanded (20 percent). The smallest group is the 15 percent who wants to leave the law as it currently is.

Of the issues tested, the president receives his highest approval rating for his handling of Afghanistan: 43 percent approve and 45 percent disapprove.”

Federal Reserve Board data show that:

During those same explosive three years, private investment banks — not Fannie and Freddie — dominated the mortgage loans that were packaged and sold into the secondary mortgage market. In 2005 and 2006, the private sector securitized almost two thirds of all U.S. mortgages, supplanting Fannie and Freddie, according to a number of specialty publications that track this data.

It was the unregulated private mortgage companies that made the bulk of these loans, not banks.

Profiles of Troubling Tea Partiers
Karen Pack
Karen Pack describes herself as “a Christian, a Tea Party Member, a Constitutionalist and a Patriot”, is the leader of the Wood County Tea Part in Texas.. But she also has a history with the Ku Klux Klan. Documents show that Karen Pack of Winnsboro, subscribed to the “White Patriot” tabloid, and that Thom Robb’s Knights of the Ku Klux Klan listed her as an “official supporter.

Roan Garcia-Quintana
Roan Garcia-Quintana of Mauldin, South Carolina is involved in several local Tea Parties and served as “advisor and media spokesman” for the 2010 Tax Day Tea Party rally in Greenville, South Carolina. Garcia-Quintana recently joined the National Board of Directors of the Council of Conservative Citizens (CofCC), the largest white nationalist group in the country and direct descendant of the white Citizens Councils that fought to defend Jim Crow segregation during the 1950s and 1960s.

Peter Gemma
Peter Gemma, a resident of a Sarasota, Florida, belongs to the ResistNet Tea Party faction. Gemma is also a professional white nationalist. He served as head of Design, Marketing, and Advertising for the white nationalist Council of Conservative Citizens newsletter, the Citizens Informe — which has complained that minorities were turning the U.S. population into a “slimy brown mass of glop”.

Clayton R. Douglas
Sixty four year old Tea Partier Clay Douglas lives in Tucson, Arizona. The biker and one-time mayor of the tiny hamlet of Bingham, New Mexico is a member of the ResistNet Tea Party faction. Douglas uses his ResistNet website profile to advertise his Free American website and radio program — which has run racist stories like, “Are the Jews Behind the Destruction of America?” At a conference of another anti-Semitic group, Douglas once blamed Jews for the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.

Larry Pratt
Larry Pratt of Virginia is a member of two different national Tea Party networks: Tea Party Nation and 1776 Tea Party. He has been promoting the gun and militia movement for years, and in 1992 spoke at a Colorado meeting of Aryan Nations leaders, former Ku Klux Klansmen, and adherents of so-called “Christian Identity” — a doctrine in which Jews are considered Satanic and persons of color are referred to as “mud people.”

Billy Roper
Billy Joe Roper is an enrolled member of the ResistNet Tea Party, a write-in for Arkansas Governor and a founder of the White Revolution.

Voter registration is not voter fraud….sorry…thanks for playing.

Justice Department report shows very few prosecutions for illegally casting ballots. According to a report by the Public Integrity Section of the Justice Department, from October 2002 through September 2005, the Justice Department charged 95 people with “election fraud” and convicted 55. Among those, however, just 17 individuals were convicted for casting fraudulent ballots; cases against three other individuals were pending at the time of the report. In addition, the Justice Department convicted one election official of submitting fraudulent ballots and convicted five individuals of registration fraud, with cases against 12 individuals pending at the time of the report. Thirty-two individuals were convicted of other “election fraud” issues, including Republicans convicted of offenses arising from “a scheme to block the phone lines used by two Manchester [New Hampshire] organizations to arrange drives to the polls during the 2002 general election” — in other words, these convictions were connected to voter suppression efforts, not voter fraud. Several other people listed in the report were convicted of vote-buying.

The handbill with a simple McDonald’s logo at the top recommended votes for Republicans John Kasich for governor, Rob Portman for U.S. Senate, and Jim Renacci for Ohio’s 16th congressional district. A Renacci campaign flier was also included.

300 to 900 people) said they were not U.S. citizens;” This was based on a telephone survery with no verifiable evidence, nor were jury pools created solely from voter registration records…they included drivers license registration.

But the St. Petersburg Times reported on October 29 that the claim was based on “two controversial and flawed state databases” that had been rejected by the state’s Republican secretary of state, Glenda Hood. In addition, the St. Petersburg Times noted that a preliminary investigation by its reporters “quickly found” two people on the list who were, in fact, eligible to vote.

…you need to have money to get a visa, and people dont make crap in mexico…

That’s only part of the problem. The are only a certain number of immigrant visas allotted for each country, so even those that have the money must stand in a long line.

The number of family-sponsored immigrant visa applicants is listed below. The number of immigrant visa applicants in the six countries listed individually make up just over two-thirds of the total number of family-sponsored applicants for the 2010 fiscal year.

Mexico 1,174,033
Philippines 435,274
Vietnam 184,516
China 183,910
India 170,589
Dominican Republic 115,478
All Other Countries 1,105,655
Worldwide Total 3,369,455

IF we want to preserve our heritage we need to restrict legal immigration, as well. Or greatly increase our fertility rate. I’ve got no problem with treating illegals at the ER. But then they go home! And children of illegals do not deserve citizenship. They and their parents need to return home. If it takes an amendemnt to the Constitution, so be it.
