I have a friend I met in the eighties who was born in Mexico and became an American citizen legally. We were watching TV at his place, and Ronald Reagan began a press conference. My friend watched Reagan so intently that when his wife came in to ask him if he wanted a beer, he shushed her and waved his hands to let her know he did not want to be disturbed while he was listening to the President. I asked her later about that about that and she said that he did that all the time, whenever Ronald Reagan was on TV.

I am not being snarky or deliberately obtuse with this question:

When your friend of Mexican origin watched President Reagan was it televised in English or on of the Spanish-language outlets?

TV comes with multi language closed captioning now adays.

He watched his favorite President in English on a regular American station. He is an engineer and also has his own successful business.

There is a Spanish language TV station called "Immigrante TV" which only covers the illegal side of the debate. And it is on 24-7. Liberty-loving non-English-speakers deserve to hear the truth, and if Roger Ailes wants to make a run at it I am all for it.

You have to start somewhere.

I’d rather Fox deliver programming for Spanish speakers than the DNC.

Mexicans are very family oriented and, I think, we have a chance of making inroads. This is a start. Yes, they have to learn English too.

In fact, Jerry Brown’s slam about Meg Whitman’s maid was not meant to sway Caucasians, it was to thwart her successful outreach to hispanics. It can only help.
