SELF-DEFENSE of the community must rely on the combined strength of the people. The front line defense will come from the barrios, the campos, the pueblos, and the ranchitos. Their involvement as protectors of their people will be given respect and dignity. They in turn offer their responsibility and their lives for their people. Those who place themselves in the front ranks for their people do so out of love and carnalismo. Those institutions which are fattened by our brothers to provide employment and political pork barrels for the gringo will do so only as acts of liberation and for La Causa. For the very young there will no longer be acts of juvenile delinquency, but revolutionary acts.

I also didn't say that you, specifically (though you did, actually, in another post where you equated Spanish Monolinguals with Illegals), fail to distinguish between Hispanic and illegal, but rather that the rhetoric du jour often slips into that mode. For example, when Lars, on his radio show, observes that so-and-so alleged criminal has a Hispanic surname, it seems that we all ought to speculate on whether he or she is in the country legally. So, it's understandable why others with Hispanic surnames may be sensitive to this kind of talk, and also why they would be unwilling to vote for someone who they perceive as aligning themselves with an anti-immigrant movement (due to reasons of ethnic solidarity and also, there may be native-born or naturalized Hispanics here who have family here illegally, and are thus even more sensitive to the issue). Why do you think no politicians dare touch the issue with a ten-foot pole? They have judged, quite accurately in my opinion, that to alienate the Hispanic vote is to commit political suicide. Again, I could be wrong.

Thus, native-born Hispanics, offended by such clumsy nativist rhetoric, are certainly not likely to support anyone who aligns with it. Nobody who alienates the Hispanic voters can win a presidential election. But, Le Pen recently surprised everyone by giving Chirac a run for his money based on an anti-immigrant/French Nationalist campaign, so who knows.....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11266150.post-1118695362453930712005-06-13T13:42:00.000-07:002005-06-13T13:42:00.000-07:00Let me guess... you must be a Hillary Clinton fan....Let me guess... you must be a Hillary Clinton fan.
