Did you notice how Obama is so cozy with 'La Raza' ?

Question

If a GOP candidate sought votes from a white group calling itself the "National Council of the Race," he'd rightly be shunned as a racist. But let Democrats do the same and they're called "progressive." The difference, of course, is that in the latter case both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama were appearing before the National Council of La Raza ("The Race"), a radical Latino group. Trolling for votes, Obama pandered to La Raza's convention in Miami over the weekend, selling himself as one who marched alongside Latinos at last May 1's illegal immigrant amnesty rallies. Clinton, by contrast, insisted she was "at home" among the La Raza crowd, having hired a top La Raza official, Raul Yzaguirre, as her national co-chair. . . .

The irony is that La Raza is no ordinary organization. . . The organization has been around since the 1960s, with many name changes. . . La Raza is not only the loudest proponent of illegal immigration in the U.S. It fosters ethnic separatism in schools. It runs Hugo Chavez-type handouts for indigents and has ties it refuses to renounce to fringe groups like MEChA, whose own slogan is derived from the rhetoric of Cuban dictator Fidel Castro: "Through the race, everything; outside the race, nothing." Today's La Raza is a $52 million not-for-profit group that lives off congressional earmarks, shakes down big corporations like WalMart and Bank of America . . . for financial support, and has made illegal immigration and ethnic separatism its leading agenda. . . . What matters to La Raza is amnesty for illegals, if not through the Senate, then through the 1960s tactic of silencing opponents by smearing them as racist.

. . . Obama stood out as the most willing race-baiter, his Chicago activist experience coming in handy. He denounced immigration bill foes as "both ugly and racist in a way we haven't seen since the struggle for civil rights." It's pure charlatan logic. The illegal immigration issue is about whether to reward foreign invaders who've broken the law, just because there are 13 million of them. Obama should know that there are also 300 million other Americans of every skin color and ethnicity -- including Latinos -- who oppose amnesty and resent efforts to intimidate them through charges of racism. Americans have already shown they won't be intimidated. They believe in the rule of law .

Answer 1

They aren't the only candidates who support illegal aliens.
Huckabee worked hard for benefits for illegal aliens in AR as governor. Now, he claims to be anti-amnesty and benefits.
He's trying to fool voters. I abhor Clinton's and Obama's "cozy" relationship with La Raza, but I equally denounce the recent reversals of Huckabee and Giuliani.
Giuliani is high-profile and almost everyone aware of his pro-illegal stances and protectionism as mayor of NYC. However, for many Huckabee is an unknown. As a victim of his gubernatorial policy I'm aware he's a wolf in sheep's clothing. At least with Clinton and Obama, there is no disguising their pro-illegal stances. Forewarned is forearmed at the voting polls.

Answer 2

Obama is not cozy with anyone, he is a politicain. The Clintons have a history of authorizing illegals for politican gain. Do not forget their involvement with La Raza when he first came to power.

Answer 3

We also believe in the power of vote. And those that are pro-amnesty are going to be in for a shock during the next election....

Answer 4

Yes I noticed and all I can say is that Obama and Hillary are a disgrace to America.

Answer 5

Racism- is across the board, some minorities are more racist than caucasions ever were, being a minority doesnt give a person the right to be racist or to support racism!

Answer 6

Viva La Raza!

Answer 7

They are the biggest of the hypocrites, obviously....
