THE SO-CALLED MEChA-BUSTAMANTE CONTROVERSY
California today is a place of numerous important political battles, each running parallel to each other. The first and most prominent is the recall campaign to remove Gray Davis; a campaign initiated by right-wing politicians and supported by a consistent majority of voters. The second battle is led by forces hoping to impose a right-wing governorship over the state. A third struggle is to keep out a progressive/leftist candidate from winning the post.
