Presidential Candidates To Address LaRaza ~ The Illegal Pandering Auction Begins
John McCain and Barack Obama each to address major Latino gathering
The National Council of La Raza, a leading Latino civil rights and advocacy organization, announced today that both presidential contenders have accepted invitations to speak at its July 12-15 convention in San Diego. No details yet on when each will speak, but their appearances likely will be among the most important they make during the month.
For Obama, the mission is straightforward: Woo an ethnic group that is absolutely essential to his hopes of carrying several key states in November but which heavily supported his rival, Hillary Clinton, during the just-completed Democratic primary season.
Presumably his campaign already will be hard at work on this task before the La Raza get-together, but his speech will offer him a golden opportunity to try to connect with a voting bloc that so far has generally resisted his appeals.
McCain will face more of a balancing act when he takes center stage at the convention.
As an Arizonan who last year was one of the few prominent Republicans on Capitol Hill pushing for controversial legislation that would have created a path to citizenship for most illegal immigrants in the nation, McCain is primed to build upon the inroads President Bush made four years ago in attracting Latino votes to the GOP banner.
Wild Thing's comment........
La Raza is, among the many horrible things it stands for and has done is a racist organization.
That we’ve sunk to the point that presidential nominees feel comfortable pandering to it is beyond unfortunate to say the least.
Attending a La Raza conference in 2008 is akin to attending a US Communist Party conference in 1988. Both organizations are dedicated to the destruction of the USA.
It's unbelievable any Presidential Candidate would do such a thing. Well, it used to be unbelievable. Nowadays, pandering to America's enemies obviously is OK.

La Raza should be on the State Department's list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs) along with al Qaeda, Hamas, and Hezbollah.

The fact that La Raza is allowed to operate in this country and spew their anti-American hatred and destruction of the United States is a sign of a nation committing national suicide.
Barack Obama and John McCain's pandering of Hispanic voters by appearing at La Raza sends the wrong message that breaking the law and anti-American behavior is not only acceptable, but encouraged. The founding fathers and mothers must be turning over in their graves.
