OK, ACORN (COI) is not all THAT bad.

They DO have some good programs to help Latinos and Hispanics:

"Thanks To ACORN, Undocumented Can Now Purchase Homes" (2005) Spanish-to-English Translation Telemundo Channel 47, archived from 2005 ^ | 7 September 2005 | Delines Batlle (translated from Spanish) Posted on Tuesday, October 14, 2008 11:36:03 PM by AmericanInTokyo Talk about a smoking pistola! "UNDOCUMENTED (ILLEGAL ALIENS) CAN NOW PURCHASE HOME" (Indocumentados pueden comprar casa) By Delines Batlle TV47 Telemundo, 7 September 2005 [TRANSLATION SPANISH TO ENGLISH BY FREEPER] "New York, NY-- Thanks to a private bank initiative, it is now possible for undocumented immigrants to the United States to purchase a home, without having a Social Security Number. A new program, it will now help those immigrants who have not been able to purchase a home, and to help them achieve the American Dream. For a very long time, Elena Hernandez did not have the illusion of being able to buy a home, not because she did not want to, but because she did not have legal immigration papers. The Mexican immigrant said "I knew that for me, the door was closed for me to purchase because I did not have a SSN, and without an SSN, you know you cannot do anything," she said. Traditionally, undocumented who wanted to buy a home in the United States had to resort to underhanded means, such as with false documents, or with the help of other persons.... But now thanks to the Citigroup, in alliance with a group ACORN, the Asociation de Organizaciones Comunitarias para Reformas", they are able to help immigrants to buy homes who do not even have Social Security numbers..... (el snippo)....this could be accomplished just with a Taxpayer Identification Number.... it is important for all those interested, who want to take advantage of this new program, to contact a center of ACORN Housing Corporation, and you can do it in the following communities: Nueva York Nueva Jersey Bridgeport, CT Washington DC Miami Baltimore, MD Chicago California For more information, you can visit by Internet ACORN HOUSE, and below that, ACORN Housing and Citigroup Partner on Remarkable Home Loan Product, where you will find more details. For the office of ACORN closest to you, just contact ACORN in Spanish." (END OF SPANISH TO ENGLISH TRANSLATION)
