Univision CEO Asks Commission to Reconsider Debate Moderators (Guess why?)
TV Newser ^ | September 2, 2016 | Mark Joyella

Univision chief executive Randy Falco has written to the Commission on Presidential Debates, expressing “disappointment, and frankly disbelief” at the decision not to include a Spanish-language moderator for the upcoming series of presidential debates.

“Simply put: it’s an abdication of your responsibility to represent and reflect one of the largest and most influential communities in the U.S,” Falco writes in the letter, addressed to commission executive director Janet Brown.

Friday morning, the commission announced its choices for the three presidential and one vice presidential debates. The presidential debate moderators are all from English-language television: Lester Holt of NBC News, Martha Raddatz of ABC News, Anderson Cooper of CNN, and Chris Wallace of Fox News....

Americans speak English. What is that Moron complaining about?

Illegal Invaders from Mexico, Central and South America who do not have the Right to Vote in our Elections speak Spanish, or Portuguese (if they are from Brazil).

ENGLISH IS THE LANGUAGE SPOKEN HERE; NOT SPANISH!

It's way past time to lawfully make it the national language and make EVERYONE speak and read it; no matter where they came from originally!

That's right, there should be a conservative on that panel.

Whore-Hay is standing by...having superglued his cranium back together after Trump’s visit to Meh-Hee-Ko.

What the hell do they intend to do, have an illegal ask questions in Spanish and then translate them for Trump and Clintoon? These Univision jerks sound like they’ve been doing too much “recreational” happy smoke. Sorry Amigos! This is an AMERICAN election. We speak ENGLISH in America whether you like it or not.

Well... This is America and we speak English here. If you speak Spanish, you are likely an illegal.

It’s simple, we were an English colony and speak English. You were a Spanish colony and speak Spanish. Now GFYS.

I guess Univision wants to represent the drug cartels, MS-13, MS 18, Los Locos, Los Macheteros, FALN, MIR, La Raza, Mecha, Voz de Atzlan, and all the other illegal criminals, irredentists, terrorists and illegally registered to vote Democrats.

If they admit to that, I say, give them a voice in the debates. It will be worth it, and another 5 million votes for Trump.

I totally agree! I would add that all ballots must be in English only - no more printing ballots in upteen languages as I heard is done in at least some states. Same with every other government (fed, state and local) document, test, etc.

Let’s see what the front oF US Coinage says :
In God we Trust.
Liberty.
Nope, nothing about Mexicans in them words

Let’s look at the back :
E Pluribus Unum!
What does that mean?
E Pluribus Unum is Latin for “out of many, one.” Sometimes it is translated more loosely as “one from many.”

Nope, nothing about Mexicans in them words

And sometimes (if you are Al Gore), it translates to: “From one, many”
