“Why shouldn’t he go to speak to La Raza, he’s going to speak to the NAACP, isn’t he? I’d say there are just as many radicals in the latter group, as in the former.”
Holy smokes, who is next on the list, the KKK?
Our fellow citizens of Mexican birth or Mexican ancestry are for the most part insulted by the presumption that they feel insulted or threatened by opposition to illegal immigration. Why should anyone presume that these citizens favor contempt for our immigration laws?
I’ve seen some of our leaders make some of the most insulting comments related to the very issue you mention. When one of our leaders talks about insulting U.S. Citizens of Mexican ancestry, they are at once intimating that these citizens are unable to understand the concepts of right and wrong, legal and illegal. I can’t explain it, other than to state what utter fools our elected officials can be.
The KKK doesn’t represent a major ethnic group. They’re just racist kooks. McCain would nave no reason to talk to them.
“They’re just racist kooks. McCain would nave no reason to talk to them.”
Yet he’ll talk to “The Race” and the NAACP. Imagine that.
Not that old canard again. La Raza = The People not The Race. Also, exactly how many non Hispanics has La Raza or for that matter the NAACP lynched?
I've checked a variety of web-based translation services; they're in nearly-unanimous agreement that "la raza" translates to "the race".
Also, exactly how many non Hispanics has La Raza ... lynched?
Lynched? Probably none.
Shot, stabbed, raped and killed-by-drunken-vehicular-homicide? By members of and adherents to La Raza? Thousands.
Both of those groups are considered established political groups by a wide number of Americans. Most folks consider the KKK a bunch of sheet wearing kooks, and rightly so.
According to www.freetranslation.com “La Raza” DIRECTLY translates to “The Race.” You are either WRONG or you are a liar. I don’t care which.
I think Duncan said it best. “The Race” kills in all kinds of ways.
“Both of those groups are considered established political groups by a wide number of Americans.”
And that makes what they stand for something to be proud of? Something that makes you want your Republican nominee to go talk to them?
“Most folks consider the KKK a bunch of sheet wearing kooks, and rightly so.”
“The Race,” just the Klan with a tan.
He's also "Banned or Suspended".
;o)
And there are people begging for conservatives to vote for this guy? How stupid is this?
I am sick of Spanish speakers, sick of paying for them, sick of standing in line behind them, and I am sick of D.C.
To hell with the GOP.
You've guzzled the leftist kool aid. Ya got it all over yourself.
The only reason La Raza is considered anything outside of a radical, extreme racist group, with thousands of of their members bent on gaining total control of this country is due to the fact that insider politicos like Bush and McCain have allowed, and even publicly encourage tens of millions to invade this country illegally.
Now with upwards of 40 million in country, of course some of the naive out there are going to somehow think racist organizations like La Raza are harmless political groups.
I can't believe some of the comments I am reading here.
Is everyone on drugs? Sold their souls for profits?
Many Hispanics consider La Raza a spokes-group, and we know that the majority of blacks, and most whites think the NAACP speaks for and represents black interests. Because of this, it is important for the nominee to speak with members of those groups. Why ignore them, and continue the fiction that Republicans don't care about the votes of those large ethnic groups?
The KKK only represents a miniscule number of disaffected white racists, thus are not representative of the vast majority of white people.
