McCain Proposes La Raza Town Hall
TOWNHALL ^ | Monday, June 16, 2008 | Amanda Carpenter

Posted on 06/16/2008 1:33:00 PM PDT by Checkers

GOP presidential candidate John McCain is inviting his Democratic rival, Barack Obama, to participate in a joint town hall at an open-borders advocacy group’s upcoming meeting in California.

“There is a meeting in California of La Raza,” McCain told reporters at an Arlington press conference Monday. “Both of us have accepted invitations. I say that we have a town hall meeting together in front of La Raza. I think that the people will be far more informed and in some ways, entertained if we had that format.”

You are kidding, right?
The meetings were set up by his “hispanic outreach director,” Juan Hernandez.

The same guy who does not even believe that America is a separate country. - Google the name...

Vote for lesser evil A or lesser evil B or you ensure A wins. Right... that works for me. Either way I would be voting for evil. It is line drawing time.

Wonderful....

And Republicans wonder why so many conservatives do not like McCain. The GOP needs to get a clue that conservatives love America more than any political party including the Republicans that want to sell us out.

> If you simply cannot vote for a major party candidate, please at least consider voting third party rather than not voting in the Presidential race.

I agree, but we need to rally around one candidate. WE -- not Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, Ann Coulter -- the grassroots, the conservatives, starting with FReepers.

The media heavyweights can be helpful in the cause, and they'll give the publicity to get the steamroller rolling. But if it doesn't start with the people, then it's meaningless and futile. A tsunami builds up by originating from the smallest of waves.

Then vote for Obama.... I think you’re on the wrong forum... You’re obviously going to push your cause to discrdit McCain so you think some fantasy candidate from the right will materialize in 2012

I hope that won't conflict with his meeting with the Young Communists for a Brighter Tomorrow.

I criticized your peculiar and erroneous statements ... sometimes it is better to have facts ... facts never cause funny feelings crawling up ones leg!

Freepers,

Is it not now painfully clear that both major political parties have been irreparably compromised?

American Patriots had better band together to form a new party before our country is lost forever.

There would be hope for us then!

“We’ve discussed all that.”

“Unless you think Obama is a better choice? Is that what you are saying?”

Well you said it best; “We’ve discussed all that”

Neither man is better over all than his opponent, in short no matter who wins, America loses.

A townhall meeting with a blatant racist organization like La Raza? This must be a nightmare...or a bad C movie....

I think MCcAIN considers Conservatives a hate group.

Well then, that would fit right in with his La Raza tour!
