JOHNDOE2, The the AARP response reminds me of the form letter responses I have from Senator Kamnesty Bailey and Congressman Pete Olson in Texas, I have to cut Olson some slack for now but not much longer, he just took office in Jan. 09.

I didn't like this answer so I sent this back!
Thanks for the response but, are you teaming up with LULAC?
Many of my friends want to know.
This group along with another racist group La Raza (The Race) were
the reason this country is in the state it is in. THEY FORCED banks to
give money to people that couldn't even pay their FIRST mortgage
payment!!! They thought the American dream was for them. Many are illegals froMexico.
Please answer the first sentence when you get back to me so I can
post it on the Internet where people are VERY mad at AARP.
You need to make a choice, Are you for Americans or illegal
immigrants?

Got this back!
Thank you for your e-mail.
Latino leaders are lobbying President Obama to take action on an
ambitious agenda that includes increased access to health care and
education, better enforcement of civil rights, and help for people
facing foreclosure and bankruptcy.
For Rosa Rosales, president of the League of United Latin American
Citizens (LULAC), nothing is more important than pressing the new
Obama administration to help Hispanics secure health care coverage.
Rosales, 64, says her heart sinks when she hears from uninsured
Hispanics who need a doctorÂ’s care and older Latinos struggling to
pay for medicine. She knows first-hand the shortfalls in current
health care coverage: her husband, who is covered under Medicare,
pays $150 each month for medicines that arenÂ’t covered by the
programÂ’s drug plan.
While LULAC takes the stance that the federal government should make
sure all Americans have access to affordable health care, Rosales is
willing to settle for ObamaÂ’s plan to expand health care coverage
through a series of measures that stops short of ensuring coverage
for all.
"We want universal health care, but we would accept the Obama health
care plan as a beginning of things," she says.
Health care is just one item at the top of a longer list of
priorities. Rosales and other Latino leaders are lobbying the
President to take action on a Hispanic agenda that includes better
access to education, increased civil rights enforcement, and help to
Latinos who are unemployed or struggling to pay mortgages and keep
their homes.
Strength in Numbers
Although Hispanic organizations lobby every new administration, there
seems to be a lot more optimism today based on ObamaÂ’s campaign
promises, and the expectation that the new President will focus on
the communityÂ’s needs, because Latino votes helped elect him. And
that optimism has sparked action.
The Hispanic community is "now fully awake, engaged, and
influential," says Sen. Bob Menendez, D-NJ. "And thatÂ’s going to pay
dividends in the way Obama and Congress govern. The first reflection
of this is the good representation of Latinos in the Obama Cabinet
and White House. Now the question will be if it shows up in policy. I
think we are starting from a place of much greater understanding of
how certain issues— like jobs, education, health care, and
immigration—not only disproportionately affect the Latino community,
but how they also fit squarely within an overall American agenda."
Leading Hispanic advocates didnÂ’t wait for President-elect Obama to
take the oath of office to begin to lobby him on a Hispanic agenda,
meeting in December with John Podesta, head of the PresidentÂ’s
transition team, and other transition officials.
But their effort really began the previous summer, when leaders of
Hispanic organizations pressed Sen. Obama and rival Republican Sen.
John McCain of Arizona to consider the National Hispanic Leadership
Agenda, a series of initiatives agreed on by 26 national Hispanic
groups that include LULAC, the Mexican American Legal Defense and
Education Fund (MALDEF), the National Council of La Raza (NCLR),
Southwest Voter Registration Education Project, and the U.S. Hispanic
Chamber of Commerce.
The agenda calls for more federal funds for educational programs
serving Hispanic students, new steps to more accurately count
Hispanics in the 2010 census, better efforts to combat hate crimes
against Hispanics, and comprehensive immigration reform that would
allow the nationÂ’s 12 million undocumented workers to pursue a path
toward citizenship.
The agenda also contains initiatives that would extend sick-leave
benefits for all workers, bolster the ability of small businesses to
provide health coverage for workers, establish incentives for
Spanish-speaking Medicare providers, help homeowners facing
foreclosure, and revisit the bankruptcy reforms that make it
difficult for Hispanic households to protect their homes and assets.
In addition, the Hispanic groups seek to restore full food stamp
benefits to legal immigrants and fight any attempts to establish a
national voter identification program that could prevent older
Hispanics, who are less likely to hold driverÂ’s licenses or other
required types of identification, from casting votes. Florida,
Georgia, Hawaii, Indiana, Louisiana, Michigan, and South Dakota
require voters to provide a government-issued photo identification
before they can vote, and anti-immigrant groups want to extend the
measures nationwide.
We hope this information is helpful.

My last correspondence with them:
WRONG ANSWER!!!
I can see from this last response that you fell for their lies hook, line, and sinker!
Nothing like sending me talking points for these corrupt organizations. I know more about them than you do.
They are lobbying for illegals NOT AMERICANS!!! You are being conned.
I shall spread your word through out the Internet. You will now have to replace me with some illegal immigrant.
You are now NOT representing older Americans you are catering to a racist Hispanic group that has spread vile in America with it's commando tactics.
I can see you are going to "help" Obama in his Socialist, Marxist, Black Liberation Theology agenda.
You have also drank the Kool-Aid.
Do NOT send another piece of mail to my home address.

Just another reason to import ILLEGALS for positions United States Citizens refuse to accept; to become members of AARP, a group that supports ILLEGALS to serve their own Agenda by increasing their bottom line at the expense of United States Citizens!

I shouldn't be surprise but I did see that lulac's website is "powered" by GM another organization that is surviving on the money from the United States Citizens in the form of Federal BAILOUTS; GM and lulac are natural partners in the fleecing the United States.

I read your letters from AARP WorriedAmerican. It is just outrageous, outlandish, and absurd that once-good American organizations are falling all over themselves trying to please RACIST GROUPS WHO SUPPORT ILLEGAL ALIENS.
DID YOU READ THE LIST THAT HISPANICS WANT FOR THEMELVES? Why dont they just ask for new homes in their own special villages, so they can attend their own schools, shop in their own malls, and have mail service that hands them a special government check every week to live on. Who cares about us Americans who built this country and made it a success. Obviously Obama, Congress and everyone else that hold any power dont give a rats behind about us.RIP Butterbean! We miss you and hope you are well in heaven.-- Your ALIPAC friends
