Thread: AN OPEN LETTER TO HISPANICS ON BEHALF OF RON PAUL

Every one needs to take a hard look at Paul's record. There is a reason the 'hispanics' support him.

Here's just some:

Oh, good grief!!

Yes, I think he will represent all races - and all Americans - and America.

To me this says, 'we are afraid of this man because he has the support of the American people - not big business (our friend), not politicians (our friends), but the American people - from all walks of life, all ages, all political leanings. That scares us.'

If one wants to use this as a reason to not vote for Ron Paul, you didn't plan to vote for him in the first place, and that's certainly your right.

The media (the illegals best friend) don't like him, the corporations (the illegals good friend) don't like him, the politicians (the illegal's protector) don't like him.

Ask yourself why the 'hispanics' would like him. They don't.

The last thing they want is someone in the Oval Office that is supported by the people and not by some political party or big business.

He is speaking common sense, running the country by the constitution, that bothers Mexico, it bothers politicians, it bothers big business, it bothers the media - and the hispanics representing illegals love him? Give me a break.

The fact is we do have a relationship with Mexico and have had forever. They are our neighbor - and nothing wrong with recognizing that. It's just when the relationship suddenly got out of hand, and our politicans began giving them the keys to the kingdom that things went awry.

They are still our neighbor, we still have a relationship - at present, they are just not our friends.

This guy sounds very racist toward Hispanics.

I agree about Ron Paul; however, it's disconcerting to read such racist rhetoric.

I agree I don't like pandering - but I doubt we could find any politician who hasn't pandered to either the hispanics, the blacks, the Asians, the Puerto Ricans, on and on and and on.

They all do this and it is distasteful to me - but somewhere in every politicians voting record is something like this.

One thing, when they dig this hard - and try this hard - you know that Ron Paul is somehow getting people's attention.

Why try to hard, dig so hard, use small inane things to use against a man 'who can't win'?

Kind of leaning toward Romney, not the perfect candidate, but light years ahead of the rest

I agree will you. I do think Ron Paul would be worst than Romney.

Very well said nntrixie.

You know, I don't know if Ron Paul is the best one - right now he is to me. He is saying things I have said, believed and was taught by my grandparents, and it sounds good to hear a politicians finally saying it.

He wants (he says) to put the power back in the people's hands, through the states. That's what the constitution intended. Yes, these are different times, but that's the BEST reason for doing it.

We have no power now - oh, we can stop a vote on amnesty - and we can sway some things - but it's a constant battle to take two steps foward and 1 3/4 backwards.

If we were all just dealing with our own state houses, we would have a much better chance of affecting change on so many levels.

This is what we are supposed to have - a government for, of, by the people. Not a government that political parties, big business, and foreign governments make the rules. WE are supposed to. In order to do that, we have to break the problem down a little into manageable pieces. That means taking the power away from the federal government and giving it back, to the respective states. The citizens of each state could deal with the issue as they saw fit. That's our only hope.

His immigration stance sounds good to me, his stance on the war, foreign policy sounds good to me, don't know beans about the federal reserve, but the idea of returning the power to the people through their state governments is the greatest of all to me.

We Hispanics are proud of our kaleidoscope of national cultures ranging from Chile to Puerto Rico, from Mexico to Costa Rica. We hold onto our beautiful traditions. They are alive and well in our language, our cuisines, our music and our history. Hispanics balk at any attempt by the majority to assimilate us or to only speak English because we're in someone else's country. Ron Paul's principles in action demonstrate that he would never support a policy that Hispanics in America need to do as Americans do.

Can we say racist as hell? The more I read the scarier our country is becoming.

I agree. It is very divisive and racist. I don't like this sentence "Ron Paul's principles in action demonstrate that he would never support a policy that Hispanics in America need to do as Americans do." WHAT ON EARTH?!
