Simply Translating an Ad Isn’t Enough (Latino vote propaganda)

H2 Note: Another Latino propaganda piece trying to convince us the Latinos are now in control of American politics and the destiny of the United States of America. These propaganda pieces are believed to be 'the real thing' among many gullible globalist liberals now dominating the MSM, public education, and even much of organized religion. The LaRaza loving author mentions the word Latino fourteen times, and spews off enough unverifiable LaRaza propaganda numbers sufficient to numb the mind of any gullible borderline Obama voter.

Latino voters will elect the next president of the United States -- again. In 2000 and 2004, George W. Bush’s ability to secure up to 40 percent, higher by some estimates, of the Latino vote helped him win the White House by carrying Florida with Hispanic support. In 2008, Senator Barack Obama’s strong showing among Latino voters over Senator John McCain was central to his ability to carry several states previously won by President Bush, including Colorado, Florida, Nevada, New Mexico and Virginia.

My organization projects that 12.2 million Latinos will vote in November, up 26 percent from the 9.7 million who voted in 2008. Nationally, the Latino vote which will represent 8.7 percent of the electorate. Our estimates are conservative and based on analyzing the trend in Latino voter performance over time; the organization’s estimate of 9.2 million voters in 2008 was off by only 5.7 percent.

Candidates fail when they assume Latinos are a single-issue constituency.

Latino voters will be particularly influential in states with large Latino populations including Arizona (where they will be 12 percent of all voters), California (26 percent), Illinois (18 percent), New Jersey (10 percent) and Texas (21 percent). In addition, Latinos will have a role in affecting the statewide outcome in several swing states including Colorado (where they make up 9 percent of voters), New Mexico (35 percent) and Florida (18 percent).

As President Obama and Mitt Romney enter the next phase of the campaign, they will need to develop specific strategies to capture the share of the Latino vote they need to win come November. Most strategists believe that a Republican candidate needs 40 percent of the Latino vote to succeed, and a Democrat more than 60 percent. The best way for these candidates to meet those targets is to begin with the understanding that the Latino vote is not a single bloc nor monolithic. Both Obama and Romney should campaign actively among Latino voters, visiting their communities and learning of their concerns and priorities during this election cycle. Candidates fail when they assume Latinos are a single-issue constituency, and that a simple translation of an advertisement will do the trick.

Give me a break, without illegals voting the "Latino" voting bloc is 12% to 15% and with all the new Voter ID laws coming out Americans will be voting this General Election, "The All American Vote" and don't forget to pitch a fit about Spain counting our overseas vote! Soros owned and operated!

Let me remind these fools that McCain lost in part because of Juan Hernandez and his connections to the Mexican government.

Latino Voters will not elect the next President, White voters will because white voters make up the largest voting block in America and are much more likely to split votes between Democrats and Republicans whereas Latino voters always vote 65+ percent DEMOCRAT.
