Hillary Clinton’s campaign is likely to choose Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Julián Castro or another Hispanic politician to be her running mate, former HUD Secretary Henry Cisneros said in an interview that will air Sunday.
“What I am hearing in Washington, including from people in Hillary Clinton’s campaign, is that the first person on their lists is Julián Castro, the ... Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, who use[d] to be the Mayor of San Antonio,” he said in an interview with Univision’s “Al Punto.”

I bet it will be Cory Booker instead. Blacks won’t turn out in sufficient numbers if it is a hispanic running mate.
Julian Castro and Hillary share a common set of values when it comes to harvesting donors to enrich themselves and build power
is this the best America can do?
Hillary needs to nail down the illegal alien, La Raza vote.
Not surprising. Note that Barack Obama is at least smooth, but both Castro brothers come across as smirking little imps. Bad presentation - there must be better latinos out there for Hillary to choose.
Now that obama has opened things up with Cuba, I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised.
The Clintonista Crime Syndicate campaign handlers know this. This is simply the name of a potential veep candidate being publicly and deliberately planted now as a lure to get the Latino voter bloc (and donors) on board early.
It's a good tactical move....the Hitlery War Room is on the ball....and should never be underestimated.

Let me see if I understand this: An ultra left wing zealot, who’s trying to hide the fact that she is an ultra left wing zealot, wants to place an ultra left wing zealot, on her ticket as Vice President. What am I missing here?
Yes. Especially in the primaries.
Which is why her camp will say this, but not actually do it. She’s running hard Left to prevent another Obama-like challenge from knocking her off in the primaries, but will need to tack somewhat to the center for the general.
Classic bait and switch.
And the rainbow vote? Inquiring minds want to know.
See post #9. This is being done to help her win the primaries and the nomination. She’s not even masking her Left wing zealotry anymore, see the WaPo article on her unabashed Progressivism from last week.
First a Hussein and now a Castro ?!?
OMG
“smirking little imps” indeed. I live near SA and every picture of the twins shows them grinning like village idiots. Being a figurehead mayor does not equate to any useful experience except money grubbing. Their La Raza commie mother no doubt has had great influence of these two posers.
Might as well go full commie...
Booker’s got way too much baggage.
And there will be far more often still illegal Latinos with all the registrations, IDs and circuit rides to multiple nearby polling stations to assure an (illegal) victory.
Hillary and the smirking Castro---La Raza is salivating as we type.
====================================================
Castro warned Republicans about holding up comprehensive immigration reform. So I guess nada amnesty will put the kibosh to the ambitious Castro family's violent, separatist plans for America. BTW, Castro was speaking from The La Raza Bank---that is to say HUD---now known as the La Raza Bank---withdrawls only. ================================================
BEWARE THE CASTROS (1) US Cong Joaquin Castro, (2) his identical twin brother, ex-Mayor Julian Castro--heads HU), and, (3) their mother---Maria “Rosie” Castro--a hardline La Raza activist.
God only knows the tax dollars these three have confiscated for the blood-thirsty La Raza.
BACKSTORY Castro---2012 Democrat convention keynoter---genially introduced the mother, Maria “Rosie” Castro to the convention-goers. Mamasita Castro is a radical ethnocentric, anti-assimilationist....a key figure in the activities of the blood-thirsty, tax-funded “La Raza."
(Castro is mentioned as a possible 2016 Dem VP candidate---and has been photed w/ Hillary.)
====================================================
AMERICANS ARE ALREADY FUNDING MAMASITA CASTRO'S HATE-FILLED ORGANIZATION: In 2005 alone, $7.9 million in taxpayer funding was given to La Raza charter schools in the form of US Dept of Education grants.
LA RAZA schools stress Latino culture, the Spanish language, the re-conquest of the American Southwest, the establishment of the mythical Atzlan on US soil, and even Aztec math.
In addition to using taxpayer funds to enforce the teaching of murder and violence in US public schools, the federally-funded La Raza organization operates 100 charter schools across America.
LA RAZA TEACHES HATE-AMERICA WITH OUR TAX DOLLARS La Raza Studies do not even try to sugar-coat its anti-America agenda and its bloodthirsty plans to kill off Americans: Raza Studies textbook “Occupied America,” by Rodolfo Acuña, includes a violent and blood-curdling speech given by university professor Jose Angel Gutierrez: “We have got to eliminate the gringo, and what I mean by that is, if the worst comes to the worst, we have got to kill him,” (pg. 323). The following is taken directly from La Raza's Occupied America: “.......execute all white males over age 16,” (p 167--AKA the Plan of San Diego).
===============================================
La Raza also got Democrat Congressional earmarks and tax dollars for "mortgage counseling." The super-secret Congressional Hispanic Caucus calculatedly launched a housing initiative called "HOGAR"-- Spanish for home. Conspiracy and collusion were the watchwords....... race-based "La Raza" was given tax dollars and Congressionsl earmarks to finance its so-called mortgage activities. La Raza's "strategic partnerships” with Wachovia and Bank of America forced the falsifications of mortgage-application and the dumbing down of mtge requirements and documentation standards.......which caused taxpayers to be socked w/ billions in bailouts as the US economy tanked.
La Raza aided and abetted risky federal and private-home loans to latinos over the last decade. thanks to the lending industry’s version of “don’t ask, don’t tell.”
In addition to millions of federal tax dollars, La Raza also collected a $1 million Democratic earmark that funded “community-development” projects. Analysts report that much of it went to "mortgage counseling."
(waiting for hysterical laughter to die down)
No joke. That is old news Henry. Everybody knows that.
Dang; first woman and first Latino on the national Ticket. How can we compete with that almost “unbeatable” slate? Answer: Gov. Susana Martinez for GOP VP slot.
