October 22, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Eduardo Verastegui, producer and lead actor of the 2007 American film Bella, met with Senator John McCain on October 17 in Miami, where they discussed the human rights at stake in this presidential election. Now Verastegui is using his star power – and more – to help McCain and Governor Sarah Palin win the votes of Latinos.
Verastegui said, “I am endorsing Sen. McCain for president because of his commitments to end abortion, protect traditional marriage and fix immigration law."
On Gov. Palin’s leadership, he said, “I love her. She’s a great role model for women.”
Verastegui has spoken at several McCain-Palin rallies. In Miami, the capital of Latin America and the first U.S. city where Verastegui lived, he campaigned for John McCain with McCain’s Senate allies Joe Lieberman and Mel Martinez, as well as Florida’s former governor, Jeb Bush and Governor Charlie Crist.
Verastegui said, “There I was, just an actor from Hollywood, not even a politician.
“I said more than 45 million babies have been killed by abortion in America and more than 200,000 Latino babies are killed by abortion each year. I told everyone that we need to put an end to this and, when I finished, I went to John McCain and I said, ‘Senator, thank you for your commitment to life. I’d like to give you something.’ I gave him a Miraculous Medal blessed by Pope Benedict XVI and he was amazing. He said, ‘Thank you so much! Look what I have here in my pocket.’ Then Sen. McCain took a medal out of his pocket that he carries everywhere and it was a Blessed Mother Teresa medal. He said, ‘Eduardo, now I am going to keep both.’

Wonderful news. :o)
We watched “Bella” just last week. Such a wonderful movie. So glad to learn the main actor is a pro-life advocate with a voice for a worthy cause!
Great post! Thanks!
I think we’re going to have to see a photo here!
How beautiful this is, I get goose bumps reading it. God bless Eduardo. And, oh my gosh, is he a hunk or what? Muy, muy guapo.
Don’t forget “Chasing Papi”!
Plot summary for
Chasing Papi (2003)
The successful and handsome wolf executive of the cosmetic industry Thomas Fuentes has three sexy Latin girlfriends: in Miami, the waitress Cici; in Chicago, the intellectual lawyer Lorena; and in New York, the “daddy’s girl” Patricia. When the three women decide to visit him in Los Angeles, Thomas is in a big trouble. Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
A comedy which revolves around three disparate women—a buttoned down lawyer from Chicago, a Miami cocktail waitress, and a wealthy, sheltered New Yorker—who discover they share something in common: a boyfriend from L.A. Unfortunately, they are all involved with the same irresistible, charming lothario who has been three-timing them across the country, with great expertise. They decide to teach their papi chulo a lesson, but instead end up on a wild adventure of their own, which takes them to a beauty pageant, a dance festival, and into some dangerous run-ins with a pair of shady characters.

NOT GUILTY!!!!!!!
Also, we need excerpts:
“Obama speaks about ‘change,’ but what change are we talking about?” he asked. “Fidel Castro spoke about change in Cuba. Hugo Chavez talks about change in Venezuela. A lot of other charismatic dictators promised change, but look what happened to their countries.”
Verastegui explained, “Obama’s change agenda is very, very dangerous. This is a historic moment. Whoever wins the presidential election will affect this country and the world for decades.
“Obama doesn’t represent the values of our Latino community. He has never done anything for us. He doesn’t know who we are.”
Thanks for the photo request and excerpts!
Just following the rules, your Honor. Hehe.
Lordy.
Time to rent Bella and Chasing Papa....
NOT GUILTY (and never will be guilty in a court of women) but LOL - that lion cub photo just cracks me up!
I can truely say that what Eduardo has between his ears (a thinking, compassionate brain) and what he has in his heart is much sexier then that thing between his legs that lion cub is protecting!
It’s one woman’s opinion.....
Well stated.
