The Clintons break bread and build ties with Julian Castro, stoking talk of a 2016 ticket
The Washington Post ^ | August 14, 2014 | Ed O'Keefe and Philip Rucker

As she expands her political network in advance of an expected presidential run, Hillary Rodham Clinton and her husband have been cultivating an important ally who some believe could become her vice presidential running mate.

Former president Bill Clinton invited Julian Castro, a former San Antonio mayor and incoming Obama Cabinet secretary, to the Clintons’ home in Washington last week for a private dinner that friends described as a chance for Democratic leaders from different generations to become better acquainted.

Castro, 39, who is scheduled to be sworn in Monday as secretary of housing and urban development, traveled to New York in July to join Hillary Clinton, as well as Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, at a children’s song and dance performance for the Bronx Children’s Museum’s youth arts program.

And in March, Hillary Clinton sat next to Henry Cisneros, who served in her husband’s Cabinet, at a private luncheon in New Mexico, where Cisneros said they discussed Castro and his political future.

“It’s a natural friendship waiting to bloom,” said Cisneros...

UGH---Hillary and smirking Castro---the pic to end Hillary's 2016 plans.

Castro is Obama's appointee to head HUD---
HUD is 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.

Castro warned Speaker Boehner WRT holding up comprehensive immigration reform.....so I guess deferring amnesty will put the kibosh to the ambitious Castro family's violent, separatist plans for America, thank God.

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)

The Castro brothers are a much bigger threat to Texas and the nation than Abortion Barbie could ever hope to be.

THIS JUST IN---The hot NY political buzz is 2016 prez wannabe
Gov Andy Cuomo is considering Massachusetts Gov Deval Patrick
as his 2016 running mate.

Lame duck Deval is trying to up his name recognition,
hoping to score brownie points with Cuomo.

Here, VP hopeful Deval sap-happily applauds his state's
new police chief---wearing her spiffy Commandant
Herman Goerring uniform (not photoshopped).

Anybody know how to say versimilitude in German?

Agreed----they are a nasty bunch of subversives.

Except that Barbie did show women how to shoot a guy in the crotch (cackle).

She’s going after the Latino vote. That would scare me at one time but.... #1. Most Latinos will vote Democrat anyhow. (If the GOP wanted to “counter” that, they could nominate Ted Cruz for President or Susan Martinez, Governor of New Mexico, for the VEEP spot.) and #2. I, sincerely, think this nation is fatigued with the names Clinton and Obama...... I think America is ready for a fresh face.

Do the RATs and liberal media honestly think its a good idea to put a hispanic candidate on the ticket named “Castro”?
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

That would be as crazy as trying to nominate someone for President with the middle name of Hussein. Oh..... wait...... never mind.
