Thread: Does anyone have the link

I need the link or source of Michelle Obama saying that her husband would grant amnesty to the illegals. Can anyone help me?

You may want to go check the archives out at NumberUSA. I believe that is where I remember reading the story. She said that while pandering to a group of Lations (don't remember the name of the group she was pandering to).

I found it and you all might want to read it again.

DENVER -
Michelle Obama told a Hispanic caucus to the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday that they should not have to live in fear of raids by immigration agents.

Obama told delegates that her husband, Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, wants to reform immigration policies and provide 11 million illegal immigrants a path to citizenship.

Obama says Hispanics are often the first to suffer in an economic downturn and the last to benefit during a recovery.

Obama told the caucus that blacks and Hispanics share a lot of issues facing Americans and her husband wants to improve health care, education, and economic opportunities for all Americans, not just a select few.

Michelle Obama rallies Hispanic caucus
By STEVEN K. PAULSON – Aug 27, 2008

DENVER (AP) — Hispanics should not have to live in fear of raids by immigration agents, Michelle Obama told a Hispanic caucus to the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday.

Her husband, Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, wants to reform immigration policies and provide illegal immigrants a path to citizenship, she said.

"We would have an immigration policy that brings 12 million people out of the shadows," she told cheering caucus members who shouted "Yes we can" in Spanish.

Hispanics are often the first to suffer in an economic downturn and the last to benefit during a recovery, she said.

She told the caucus that blacks and Hispanics share an interest in providing access to affordable health care, education and economic opportunities for all Americans, not just a select few.

"We all know our country's journey toward equality isn't finished yet. We have more work to do," she said.

Hispanics could play a key role in the November election, especially in the West where the Obama campaign has been courting them.

Researchers say that although Hispanics make up about 15 percent of the U.S. population, about 9 percent of eligible Hispanic voters are registered to vote and only 6.5 percent do vote, a statistic Republicans and Democrats are trying to change.

Raymond Pedraza, a member of the Nevada Democratic Party's executive committee, said Hispanics are flocking to Obama because they feel they share a similar heritage of economic and civil rights struggles.

"He's our story. He has walked in our shoes and he has walked our mile," Pedraza said.

what civil rights struggles are the hispanics talking about beyond teh civil rights of all legal residents of this country, their right to parity of their Spanish language with English, that kind of civil right?
