Mexican actor and soap star Eduardo Verastegui has teamed up with two conservative groups to attack President Obama for his stands on abortion and immigration.
In doing so, the groups hope to reduce his support in the Latino community, Politico reported Friday.
The Latino Partnership for Conservative Principles and the Susan B. Anthony List are using Verastegui in a robocall and Web campaign that encourages Latino voters to support Mitt Romney.
The calls will target voters in six states: Nevada, Colorado, New Mexico, Virginia, North Carolina and Florida.
Obama's support in the Latino community overwhelms that of Romney, 73 percent to 21 percent, in a recent poll by Latino Decision.
At the same time, Latinos are slightly more opposed to abortion than the general population.
Same here.
God bless him. I really hope Latinos will start waking up and voting for conservative values.
LOVED Bella. I own it. Did you know that 2 of the many “civilian” sponsors of that film — people whose money paid for the distribution of the film — were Gov. Jeb and Mrs. Bush?
But, why waste Eduardo on a robo-call? Such a beautiful face should be in a TV ad. He had a small part in “For the Glory” too — more recently.
I think the one true characteristic about the Latino population in America...is that they really don’t want a hand-out. These are people that want to show up at the job each day, and appreciate opportunities that present themselves.
I appreciate the sentiment, but if he’s still a Mexican citizen it sets a bad precedent for him to enter the debate.
