    The RaceCard. The GOP will lose every time they attempt to use the race card against the Dems. Note the recent Supreme Court decision that disenfranchised Hispanics looking to unionize. The decision was 5-4, with the 5 voting for disenfranchisement affiliated with the GOP.

    Pulaski, how can you argue that affirmative action is a liberal program. Colin Powell, our Secretary of State, championed this fine program before thousands of people at the GOP Convention. The problem with Estrada, and the reason so few Hispanics are behind his candidacy, has to do with the composition of the Supreme Court. Recently, Hispanics have been outraged, and outspoken, against the 5-4 Supreme Court decision denying illegal immigrants the right to unionize. Hispanics realize that the five who voted against Hispanics are GOP sympathizers, and will do anything to ensure that another ultraconservative isn't appointed to the Supreme Court. If you watch Univision and Telemundo, you perceive the outrage. Estrada is not friendly to Hispanic interests, and it is to their credit that Democrats have yet to have a hearing on his nomination.
