Having lived in Southern Kalifornia, I can't emphasize too much the HORRENDOUS corruption that has seeped up from the banana republic to the South. During the Recall and the Presidential elections, I COULD NOT get them to send me an absentee ballot. I COULD NOT get one word of information out of the Registrar's office. In short, I COULD NOT VOTE!
Mexico's absence of a sense of honor (except perhaps their ultra left-leaning worship of La Raza, that militant subversive organization that means to take California back by force) has infiltrated the cities, counties and (obviously) the state government levels as well.
There's a general air of hostility, suspicion, arrogance and even violence all over the Southern part of the state. I'd even describe it as a potential powderkeg.
The problem isn't that Villaraigosa is Hispanic, the problem is that he is RACIST and a SOCIALIST, and the best friend gangs and criminals could ever have. He voted against crack down on gangs.
No worries.
They will all become good little conservatives one day like magic.
