GO MITT. The Bobsey Twins—Snowe and Collins endorsed McQueeg.
They must also agree with his choice of Dr. Juan Hernandez joining his campaign team:
Dr. Juan Hernandez on John McCains campaign staff as a 'non-paid volunteer' as a McCain spokesman said.
U.S.-born dual citizen Juan Hernandez was in Vincente Fox's cabinet as Director of the Office for Mexicans Living Abroad and is notorious for having said of Mexican Americans on Nightline on June 7, 2001, "I want the third generation, the seventh generation, I want them all to think 'Mexico first.'"
From Amerpundit:
This is a man who insisted that any securing of the borders was racist, and closed-borders proponents were equivalent to Nazis.
By the way, he himself is a dual citizen born in Texas, university—teaching at the University of Texas and on the Vicente Fox cabinet. And he said, “I work with the community in the United States, the Mexican community because I don‘t want them essentially going native on us. We want them continually tied emotionally, linguistically, politically to Mexico, because then they‘ll continue to send money home.”
From GatewayPundit:
Juan Hernandez, head of the Mexican government's Office of Mexicans Living Outside Mexico, told U.S. Representative Tom Tancredo that the North American southwest "is not two countries; it's just a region."
From www.juanhernandez.org:
Last month, when Hernandez appeared to endorse issuing a so-called ''survival kit'' to help Mexican migrants safely cross the border into the USA, U.S. officials criticized the proposal and demanded an explanation. Hernandez quickly backed down.
Hernandez:
"I believe it is time now for Congress to put the issue of immigration on a front burner before the next election cycle causes the issue to become mired in election-year politics."
In 1996, Hernández invited Vicente Fox (then Governor of the Mexican State of Guanajuato) to speak at UT, Dallas and meet George W. Bush (then Governor of Texas) -- a historical meeting that marked a new outlook in Mexico-U.S. relations.
After beating the party that had ruled for over 71 years, President Fox hired Hernandez as the first US-born cabinet member, heading the President’s Office for Mexicans Abroad. Operating from Los Pinos (the Mexican White House), the Office had as its principal objective to serve and dignify the 24 million whom President Fox has called heroes -- the countrymen who live in foreign lands.
Hernandez speaking of banks and illegals:
It is difficult for those who struggle with English to have the self-assurance to open an account and discuss financial transactions when that conversation is more likely to lead to confusion than to certitude. Imagine yourself trying to open a bank account in Paris with only halting knowledge of French. So the first request to financial institutions on my Christmas list is to try to ensure there is at least one person trained to speak Spanish in any branch of your institution.
Hernandez:
We must not only have a free flow of goods and services, but also start working for a free flow of people."
Juan Hernandez also created The Organization for Hispanic Advancement, (HispanA, a non-profit 5O1c3).
From the www.hispanicorganization.com website:
In April of 1996, Juan Hernández, former professor at The University of Texas at Dallas, and Vicente Fox, now President of Mexico, began a long conversation on the need for greater recognition and further advancement of Hispanics in the U.S. and Mexican societies. The conversation was joined by many others over the years, including President George W. Bush, former President Bill Clinton, former President Jimmy Carter, many governors, legislators, business leaders, heads of La Raza, LULAC, Maldef, directors of town-home associations, media experts, migration researchers, priests and pastors.
