Friends of ALIPAC,
Each day new reports come in from across the nation that our movement is surging and more incumbents, mostly Democrats, are about to fall on Election Day. Obama's approval ratings are falling to new lows as he makes highly inappropriate statements to Spanish language audiences asking illegal alien supporters to help him "punish our enemies."

Obama's
Remarks to La Raza

National Council of La Raza (NCLR)

National Council of La Raza (NCLR)
San Diego, California
I've got to tell you, being here with all of you
today feels a little like coming home. Because while I stand here as a
candidate for President of the United States, I will never forget that the most
important experience in my life came when I was doing what you do each day -
working on the ground in our communities to bring about change.
As some of you know, after college, I moved to
Chicago and went to work for a group of churches to help families that had been
devastated when the local steel plants closed down. I knew change in those
communities wouldn't come easily - but I also knew it wouldn't come at all if
we didn't start bringing people together. So I reached out to community leaders
- black, brown, and white - and formed coalitions on issues ranging from
failing schools to illegal dumping to unimmunized children. We set up job
training for the jobless, helped prevent students from dropping out of school,
and taught people to stand up to their government when it wasn't standing up
for them.
That work taught me a fundamental truth that has
guided me ever since: that in this country, change doesn't come from the top
down. Change doesn't happen just because someone in Washington says it should.
Change starts when you teach a child to read, or register someone to vote, or
help a family buy their first home. It starts when you heal broken bodies and
troubled spirits; when you organize neighborhoods into coalitions, and workers
into unions. It starts when you send leaders to Washington committed to taking
this country in a new direction.
That's the kind of change you're making every
single day. The theme of this conference is the work of your lives:
strengthening America together. It's been the work of this organization for
four decades - lifting up families and transforming communities across America.
And for that, I honor you, I congratulate you, I thank you, and I wish you
another forty years as extraordinary as your last.
I come before you today at a defining moment for
our nation. I'm thinking of an article I read in the newspaper a while back
about struggling schools in Los Angeles. The article told the story of a boy
named Gonzalo, who started falling behind in the seventh grade and wasn't
getting the support he needed to catch up. When his mother called the school to
complain, nothing changed.
"Maybe the system is not designed for
people like us," she said.
Not designed for people like us.
It was a comment about education, but it
reflects a broader feeling that so many people today share - that the system
just isn't working for them. And they're right. It's not.
The system isn't working when a child in a
crumbling school graduates without learning to read or doesn't graduate at all.
Or when a young person at the top of her class - a young person with so much to
offer this country - can't attend a public college.
The system isn't working when Hispanics are
losing their jobs faster than almost anybody else, or working jobs that pay
less, and come with fewer benefits than almost anybody else.
The system isn't working when 12 million people
live in hiding, and hundreds of thousands cross our borders illegally each
year; when companies hire undocumented immigrants instead of legal citizens to
avoid paying overtime or to avoid a union; when communities are terrorized by
ICE immigration raids - when nursing mothers are torn from their babies, when
children come home from school to find their parents missing, when people are
detained without access to legal counsel.
When all that's happening, the system just isn't
working.
And I know how frustrated many of you are right
now. Your jobs are hard on a good day - and having a President who cuts your
budgets doesn't help. Having a President who's torn gaping holes in the safety
net for the people you serve doesn't help. Having a struggling economy - an
economy that's left so many people in need of your assistance - that doesn't
help either.
I know that sometimes, you get tired. Sometimes,
you start to lose heart. You start to feel like you're walking that long, hard
road alone - like no one sees the sacrifices you make or appreciates the
services you provide.
But I know how hard you're working. I know the
difference you're making in our communities. And I'm here today to make you
this promise: I will be a President who stands with you, and fights for you,
and walks with you every step of the way.
Because here's something else I know: that when
the system isn't working, people who love this country can come together to
change it.
That is the history of the Hispanic community in
America. From fighting to desegregate our schools and neighborhoods, to
organizing farmworkers, to standing up for the rights of immigrants, you've
reminded us that those words about liberty and equality put to paper over 200
years ago mean something. And you've sought to remake this nation in the shape
of those ideals.
It's work that reflects the character of this
community in which so many people have come here with so little, but had big
dreams, big hearts, and a thirst to succeed. A willingness to struggle and
sacrifice so the next generation doesn't have to. It's the same reason my own
father came here from Kenya so many years ago - in the hope that here in
America, you can make it if you try.
For centuries, those values - hard work,
patriotism, faith and family - the values that have made the Hispanic community
strong - have made America strong too.
That's what's at stake this November. This
election is nothing less than a test of our allegiance to the American Dream.
And it's a test of our commitment to all those who are counting on us to keep
that Dream alive - the people you serve every day.
The 12 million people in the shadows, the
communities taking immigration enforcement into their own hands, the
neighborhoods seeing rising tensions as citizens are pitted against new immigrants...they're
counting on us to stop the hateful rhetoric filling our airwaves - rhetoric
that poisons our political discourse, degrades our democracy, and has no place
in this great nation. They're counting on us to rise above the fear and
demagoguery, the pettiness and partisanship, and finally enact comprehensive
immigration reform.
Now, I know Senator McCain used to buck his
party on immigration by fighting for comprehensive reform - and I admired him
for it. But when he was running for his party's nomination, he abandoned his
courageous stance, and said that he wouldn't even support his own legislation
if it came up for a vote.
Well, I don't know about you, but I think it's
time for a President who won't walk away from something as important as
comprehensive reform when it becomes politically unpopular. And that's the
commitment I'm making to you. I marched with you in the streets of Chicago. I
fought with you in the Senate for comprehensive immigration reform. And I will
make it a top priority in my first year as President. Not just because we need
to secure our borders and get control of who comes into our country. And not
just because we have to crack down on employers abusing undocumented
immigrants. But because we have to finally bring those 12 million people out of
the shadows.
Yes, they broke the law. And we should not
excuse that. We should require them to pay a fine, learn English, and go to the
back of the line for citizenship - behind those who came here legally. But we
cannot - and should not - deport 12 million people. That would turn American
into something we're not; something we don't want to be.
While we work to strengthen our borders, we need
a practical solution for the problem of 12 million people who are here without
documentation - many of whom have lived and worked here for years. That's why
we need to offer those who are willing to make amends a pathway to citizenship.
That way, we can reconcile our values as both a nation of immigrants and a
nation of laws.
But there's much more to this election than
resolving the status of undocumented immigrants.
This election is also about the couple I met in
North Las Vegas who saved up for decades only to be tricked into buying a home
they couldn't afford; it's about the Latino families who are the first ones
hurt by an economic downturn and the last ones helped by an economic upturn.
They can't afford another four years of the Bush economic policies Senator
McCain is offering - policies that give tax breaks to the biggest corporations
and the wealthiest Americans, while doing little for struggling families who
need help most.
They're counting on us to restore fairness to
our economy by giving tax relief to working families; by supporting our unions;
by ending tax breaks for companies that ship jobs overseas and giving them to
companies that create jobs here at home. They're counting on us to finally come
together to solve this housing crisis that's devastating our communities. I
especially want to commend NCLR for your leadership on this issue - for helping
so many families avoid fraud and foreclosure. I think it's time you had a
president who supported your work - and I intend to be that president.
This election is also about the Latino students
who are dropping out of school faster than nearly anyone else, and the children
who attend overflowing classes in underfunded schools taught by teachers who
aren't getting the support they need.
They're counting on us to invest in early
childhood education, stop leaving the money behind for No Child Left Behind,
recruit an army of new teachers; and make college affordable for anyone who
wants to go. Because that's how we'll give every American the skills to compete
in the global economy, and all our children the chance to live out their
dreams.
This election is about working women who can't
find affordable childcare or afterschool programs for their kids; women forced
to lose their wages or quit their jobs to care for a newborn baby or an elderly
parent.
They're counting on us to help them make a
living while raising their kids - to fight for equal pay for equal work, and
for childcare, family leave and sick leave, because here in America, there
should be no second class citizens in our workplaces.
This election is about the veterans - including
so many men and women from this community - who've served this country so
bravely, but then come home to face new battles with the bureaucracy at the VA
or the deplorable conditions at places like Fort Bragg and Walter Reed. And
we've all walked by a veteran whose home is now a cardboard box on a street
corner. It's a disgrace.
These American heroes are counting on us to
build a 21st century VA; to provide the benefits and health care they've
earned, including mental health care; and to ensure that no one who has served
this country ever has to sleep on the streets.
This election is about the nearly one in three
Hispanics who don't have health care - people for whom one accident, one
illness can lead to financial ruin. And it's about the small business owners
struggling to stay afloat because of the rising cost of insuring their
employees. They're counting on us to fix our broken health care system.
Here's Senator McCain's answer to our health
care crisis: vote against expanding the Children's Health Insurance Program - a
program that provides health care for millions of children in need. And propose
a radical plan that would shred our current system of employer-based health
care and tax individual workers for their health benefits for the first time in
history. A plan that would be financed by a $3.6 trillion tax increase on the
middle class - an increase of more than $1,000 for the typical family. Under
the McCain plan, many Americans could lose the health care they have - and pay
more in taxes for the health care they get.
I have a very different answer to our health
care crisis. I'll take on the drug and insurance companies, cut costs,
guarantee health insurance for anyone who needs it and make it affordable for
anyone who wants it.
And today, I'm announcing my plan to provide
real relief for small business owners crushed by rising costs, an idea
championed by my friend Hillary Clinton, who's been leading the way in our
battle to insure every American. It's a plan that would help more employers
provide health benefits for their workers - instead of making it harder for
them, as Senator McCain would do.
We know that small businesses are the engines of
economic prosperity in our communities - particularly Latino communities. And
under my plan, if you're a small business that wants to provide health care to
your employees, we'll give you a tax credit to make it affordable. My plan
won't impose any new burdens on small businesses. Instead, we'll help them not
just create new jobs, but good jobs - jobs with health care; jobs that stay
right here in America; the kind of jobs we need in our communities.
That's how we're going to change the system in
this country.
But I can't do this alone. So I'm here today to
ask for your help.
Make no mistake about it: the Latino community
holds this election in your hands. Some of the closest contests this November
will be in states like Florida, Colorado, Nevada and New Mexico - states with
large Latino populations.
And if you have any doubt about whether you can
make a difference, just remember how, back in 2004, 40,000 registered Latino
voters in New Mexico didn't turn out on election day. Senator Kerry lost that
state by fewer than 6,000 votes. 6,000 votes. Today, in 2008, an estimated
170,000 Latinos in New Mexico aren't registered to vote.
I know how powerful this community is. Just
think how powerful you could be on November 4th if you translate your numbers
into votes.
And I'm not taking a single Latino vote for
granted in this campaign. We're meeting with Latino leaders across the country.
We're reaching out to Latino organizations to get input on my policy proposals.
We've got a nationwide Hispanic media strategy. We're recruiting and training Latino organizers. We're holding Latino
voter registration drives across America. And when I'm President, I'll be
asking many of you to serve at every level of government.
That's how we'll change the direction of this
country - from the ground up, vote by vote, precinct by precinct, state by
state. And I hope every single one of you will join us. I need your advice and
expertise. I need you to organize people to knock on doors, make calls and
register voters. I need you to talk to your friends and family, co-workers and
neighbors, and make sure they cast their ballots on election day.
We walked together on the streets of the South
Side of Chicago. We walked together when I was a civil rights lawyer,
registering Hispanic voters and giving Hispanics a greater voice in City Hall.
We walked together in those marches for immigration reform. And if we get to
the polls this November, we will walk together through those White House doors
and into a new future for this country we all love.
That's how we'll make the system work again for
everyone. By living up to the ideals that this organization has always embodied
- the ideals reflected in your name - La Raza, the people. I'm told that the
original phrase was "La Raza Cosmica" - the cosmic people - a term
big enough to embrace the rich tapestry of cultures, colors and faiths that
make up the Hispanic community. Big enough to embrace the notion that we are
all part of a greater community - that we all have a stake in each other; that
I am my brother's keeper, I am my sister's keeper; and we rise and fall
together as one people.
So to that mother and all those who feel like
the system just isn't made for people like you, I say this: that system and
this country belong to every last one of us, black and white, Latino and Asian,
rich and poor, gay and straight, young and old. And this November, we're going
to come together to turn the page on the failed policies of the past. To bring
new energy and new ideas to meet the challenges we face. And together, we won't
just win an election - we will transform this nation.
Thank you, and God bless you.
Barack Obama is the President of the United
States of America.

Violence stemming migrant flow to U.S.
TENOSIQUE, Mexico – For years, Central
American migrants rode slow buses and freight trains across Mexico, then paid
“coyote” guides a few hundred dollars for a quick run or swim into the United
States.
It was a hard journey, but nothing like
today.
Warring mafias have turned once-sleepy farm towns and rail
crossings in Mexico into notorious junctions of kidnapping, torture and death,
creating a new geography of fear spanning from the U.S. border to the most
humble villages in Central America.
The soaring number of attacks on migrants in Mexico, and the
widely dispersed news of their barbarity, is discouraging many Central
Americans from even attempting the trip to the United States, according to
immigration officials, human rights advocates and the travelers themselves.
The flow of illegal Central American
migrants to the United States has been slowing since 2005, the result of the
sagging U.S. economy and increased law enforcement along the U.S. border,
experts say. But a powerful new reason has emerged: Today’s migrants face a far
more sinister journey and many have concluded it is just too dangerous.
“This is my fourth trip, but everything
is different now. They’ll kill you for nothing,” said Darling Diaz Garcia, a
Nicaraguan who was spending the night at a shelter in Tapachula across from the Guatemala border.

OBAMA AND THE FUNDING OF MEXICAN FASCISM FROM THE WHITE
HOUSE
FROM JUDICIAL WATCH
NCLR
Funding Skyrockets After Obama Hires Its VP
06/17/2011
A
Judicial Watch
investigation
reveals that federal funding for a Mexican La Raza group that for years has
raked in millions of taxpayer dollars has skyrocketed since one of its top
officials got a job in the Obama White House.
The
influential and politically-connected National Council of La Raza (NCLR) has
long benefitted from Uncle Sam’s largess but the group has made a killing since
Obama hired its senior vice president (Cecilia Muñoz) in 2009 to be his
director of intergovernmental affairs.
Ignored
by the mainstream media, Judicial Watch covered the
appointment
because the president issued a special “ethics waiver” to bring Muñoz aboard
since it violated his own lobbyist ban. At the pro illegal immigration NCLR,
Muñoz supervised all legislative and advocacy activities on the state and local
levels and she was heavily involved in the congressional immigration battles
that took place in the George W. Bush Administration.
She also brought in a steady flow of
government cash that’s allowed the Washington D.C.-based group to expand
nationwide and promote its leftist, open-borders agenda via a network of
community organizations dedicated to serving Latinos.Among them are a variety
of local groups that provide social services, housing counseling and farm
worker assistance as well as publicly-funded charter schools that promote
radical Chicano curriculums. Judicial Watch published a special report on this a few years ago.
This week a JW probe has uncovered
details of the alarming increase in federal funding that these NCLR groups have
received since Muñoz joined the Obama Administration. In fact, the government
cash more than doubled the year Muñoz joined the White House, from $4.1 million
to $11 million.
Not surprisingly, a big chunk of the
money (60%) came from the Department of Labor, which is headed by a former
California congresswoman (Hilda Solis) with close ties to the La Raza movement.
Since Obama named her Labor Secretary, Solis has launched a nationwide campaign
to protect illegal immigrant workers
in the U.S. Just this week Solis penned declarations with Guatemala and
Nicaragua to preserve the rights of their migrants.
The
NCLR also received additional taxpayer dollars from other federal agencies in
2010, the JW probe found. The Department of Housing and Urban Development doled
out $2.5 million for housing counseling, the Department of Education
contributed nearly $800,000 and the Centers for Disease Control a quarter of a
million.
Additionally,
NCLR affiliates nationwide raked in tens of millions of government grant and
recovery dollars last year thanks to the Muñoz factor. An offshoot called
Chicanos Por La Causa (CPLC) saw its federal funding nearly double to $18.3
million following Muñoz’ appointment.
A
social service and legal assistance organization (Ayuda Inc.) that didn’t
receive any federal funding between 2005 and 2008 got $600,000 in 2009 and
$548,000 in 2010 from the Department of Justice. The group provides immigration
law services and guarantees confidentiality to assure illegal aliens that they
won’t be reported to authorities.

LA RAZA SUPREMACIST HILDA SOLIS, SEC. OF DEPT OF LABOR.
Michelle Malkin
LA RAZA HILDA SOLIS - The U.S. Department of Illegal Alien
Labor
President Obama's Labor Secretary Hilda Solis is supposed to
represent American workers. What you need to know is that this longtime
open--borders sympathizer has always had a rather radical definition of
"American." At a Latino voter registration project conference in Los
Angeles many years ago, Solis asserted to thunderous applause, "We are all
Americans, whether you are legalized or not."
That's right. The woman in charge of enforcing our
employment laws doesn't give a hoot about our immigration laws ---- or about
the fundamental distinction between those who followed the rules in pursuit of
the American dream and those who didn't.

Labor Secretary Pledges Help For Illegal Workers
Last Updated: Tue,
06/22/2010 - 11:00am
Two months after the
Department of Labor launched a special program to assist and protect illegal
immigrants in the U.S. the Obama cabinet official who heads the agency is
personally encouraging undocumented workers to report employers that don’t pay
them fairly.
In a Spanish-language
public service announcement, Labor Secretary Hilda Solis
assures that “every worker in America has a right to be paid fairly, whether
documented or not.” Illegal aliens who are not getting fair wages are
encouraged to call a new hotline set up by the agency on a new “Podemos Ayudar” (We
Can Help) web page designed to administer worker protection laws and ensure that
employees are properly paid “regardless of immigration status.”
In the short video,
also posted in English, Solis tells illegal immigrants that it’s a “serious
problem” when workers in this country are not paid fairly and that all workers
have the right to receive their salary regardless of immigration status. She
encourages those who are not to call the new hotline and assures it’s free and
confidential. “Podemos ayudar,” (we can help), Solis guarantees at the end of
the brief segment.
THE HISPANDERING PRESIDENT!
We're recruiting and training Latino organizers. We're holding
Latino voter registration drives across America. And when I'm President, I'll

When all that's happening, the system just isn't
working.
And I know how frustrated many of you are right
now. Your jobs are hard on a good day - and having a President who cuts your
budgets doesn't help. Having a President who's torn gaping holes in the safety
net for the people you serve doesn't help. Having a struggling economy - an
economy that's left so many people in need of your assistance - that doesn't
help either.
I know that sometimes, you get tired. Sometimes,
you start to lose heart. You start to feel like you're walking that long, hard
road alone - like no one sees the sacrifices you make or appreciates the
services you provide.
But I know how hard you're working. I know the
difference you're making in our communities. And I'm here today to make you
this promise: I will be a President who stands with you, and fights for you,
and walks with you every step of the way.
Because here's something else I know: that when
the system isn't working, people who love this country can come together to
change it.
That is the history of the Hispanic community in
America. From fighting to desegregate our schools and neighborhoods, to
organizing farmworkers, to standing up for the rights of immigrants, you've
reminded us that those words about liberty and equality put to paper over 200
years ago mean something. And you've sought to remake this nation in the shape
of those ideals.
It's work that reflects the character of this
community in which so many people have come here with so little, but had big
dreams, big hearts, and a thirst to succeed. A willingness to struggle and
sacrifice so the next generation doesn't have to. It's the same reason my own
father came here from Kenya so many years ago - in the hope that here in
America, you can make it if you try.
For centuries, those values - hard work,
patriotism, faith and family - the values that have made the Hispanic community
strong - have made America strong too.
That's what's at stake this November. This
election is nothing less than a test of our allegiance to the American Dream.
And it's a test of our commitment to all those who are counting on us to keep
that Dream alive - the people you serve every day.
The 12 million people in the shadows, the
communities taking immigration enforcement into their own hands, the
neighborhoods seeing rising tensions as citizens are pitted against new
immigrants...they're counting on us to stop the hateful rhetoric filling our
airwaves - rhetoric that poisons our political discourse, degrades our
democracy, and has no place in this great nation. They're counting on us to
rise above the fear and demagoguery, the pettiness and partisanship, and finally
enact comprehensive immigration reform.
Now, I know Senator McCain used to buck his
party on immigration by fighting for comprehensive reform - and I admired him
for it. But when he was running for his party's nomination, he abandoned his
courageous stance, and said that he wouldn't even support his own legislation
if it came up for a vote.
Well, I don't know about you, but I think it's
time for a President who won't walk away from something as important as
comprehensive reform when it becomes politically unpopular. And that's the
commitment I'm making to you. I marched with you in the streets of Chicago. I
fought with you in the Senate for comprehensive immigration reform. And I will
make it a top priority in my first year as President. Not just because we need
to secure our borders and get control of who comes into our country. And not
just because we have to crack down on employers abusing undocumented
immigrants. But because we have to finally bring those 12 million people out of
the shadows.
Yes, they broke the law. And we should not
excuse that. We should require them to pay a fine, learn English, and go to the
back of the line for citizenship - behind those who came here legally. But we
cannot - and should not - deport 12 million people. That would turn American
into something we're not; something we don't want to be.
While we work to strengthen our borders, we need
a practical solution for the problem of 12 million people who are here without
documentation - many of whom have lived and worked here for years. That's why
we need to offer those who are willing to make amends a pathway to citizenship.
That way, we can reconcile our values as both a nation of immigrants and a
nation of laws.
But there's much more to this election than
resolving the status of undocumented immigrants.
This election is also about the couple I met in
North Las Vegas who saved up for decades only to be tricked into buying a home
they couldn't afford; it's about the Latino families who are the first ones
hurt by an economic downturn and the last ones helped by an economic upturn.
They can't afford another four years of the Bush economic policies Senator
McCain is offering - policies that give tax breaks to the biggest corporations
and the wealthiest Americans, while doing little for struggling families who
need help most.
They're counting on us to restore fairness to
our economy by giving tax relief to working families; by supporting our unions;
by ending tax breaks for companies that ship jobs overseas and giving them to
companies that create jobs here at home. They're counting on us to finally come
together to solve this housing crisis that's devastating our communities. I
especially want to commend NCLR for your leadership on this issue - for helping
so many families avoid fraud and foreclosure. I think it's time you had a
president who supported your work - and I intend to be that president.
This election is also about the Latino students
who are dropping out of school faster than nearly anyone else, and the children
who attend overflowing classes in underfunded schools taught by teachers who
aren't getting the support they need.
They're counting on us to invest in early
childhood education, stop leaving the money behind for No Child Left Behind,
recruit an army of new teachers; and make college affordable for anyone who
wants to go. Because that's how we'll give every American the skills to compete
in the global economy, and all our children the chance to live out their
dreams.
This election is about working women who can't
find affordable childcare or afterschool programs for their kids; women forced
to lose their wages or quit their jobs to care for a newborn baby or an elderly
parent.
They're counting on us to help them make a
living while raising their kids - to fight for equal pay for equal work, and
for childcare, family leave and sick leave, because here in America, there
should be no second class citizens in our workplaces.
This election is about the veterans - including
so many men and women from this community - who've served this country so
bravely, but then come home to face new battles with the bureaucracy at the VA
or the deplorable conditions at places like Fort Bragg and Walter Reed. And
we've all walked by a veteran whose home is now a cardboard box on a street corner.
It's a disgrace.
These American heroes are counting on us to
build a 21st century VA; to provide the benefits and health care they've
earned, including mental health care; and to ensure that no one who has served
this country ever has to sleep on the streets.
This election is about the nearly one in three
Hispanics who don't have health care - people for whom one accident, one
illness can lead to financial ruin. And it's about the small business owners
struggling to stay afloat because of the rising cost of insuring their
employees. They're counting on us to fix our broken health care system.
Here's Senator McCain's answer to our health
care crisis: vote against expanding the Children's Health Insurance Program - a
program that provides health care for millions of children in need. And propose
a radical plan that would shred our current system of employer-based health
care and tax individual workers for their health benefits for the first time in
history. A plan that would be financed by a $3.6 trillion tax increase on the
middle class - an increase of more than $1,000 for the typical family. Under
the McCain plan, many Americans could lose the health care they have - and pay
more in taxes for the health care they get.
I have a very different answer to our health
care crisis. I'll take on the drug and insurance companies, cut costs,
guarantee health insurance for anyone who needs it and make it affordable for
anyone who wants it.
And today, I'm announcing my plan to provide
real relief for small business owners crushed by rising costs, an idea
championed by my friend Hillary Clinton, who's been leading the way in our
battle to insure every American. It's a plan that would help more employers
provide health benefits for their workers - instead of making it harder for
them, as Senator McCain would do.
We know that small businesses are the engines of
economic prosperity in our communities - particularly Latino communities. And
under my plan, if you're a small business that wants to provide health care to
your employees, we'll give you a tax credit to make it affordable. My plan
won't impose any new burdens on small businesses. Instead, we'll help them not
just create new jobs, but good jobs - jobs with health care; jobs that stay
right here in America; the kind of jobs we need in our communities.
That's how we're going to change the system in
this country.
But I can't do this alone. So I'm here today to
ask for your help.
Make no mistake about it: the Latino community
holds this election in your hands. Some of the closest contests this November
will be in states like Florida, Colorado, Nevada and New Mexico - states with
large Latino populations.
And if you have any doubt about whether you can
make a difference, just remember how, back in 2004, 40,000 registered Latino
voters in New Mexico didn't turn out on election day. Senator Kerry lost that
state by fewer than 6,000 votes. 6,000 votes. Today, in 2008, an estimated
170,000 Latinos in New Mexico aren't registered to vote.
I know how powerful this community is. Just
think how powerful you could be on November 4th if you translate your numbers
into votes.
And I'm not taking a single Latino vote for
granted in this campaign. We're meeting with Latino leaders across the country.
We're reaching out to Latino organizations to get input on my policy proposals.
We've got a nationwide Hispanic media strategy. We're recruiting and training Latino organizers. We're holding Latino
voter registration drives across America. And when I'm President, I'll be
asking many of you to serve at every level of government.
That's how we'll change the direction of this
country - from the ground up, vote by vote, precinct by precinct, state by
state. And I hope every single one of you will join us. I need your advice and
expertise. I need you to organize people to knock on doors, make calls and
register voters. I need you to talk to your friends and family, co-workers and
neighbors, and make sure they cast their ballots on election day.
We walked together on the streets of the South
Side of Chicago. We walked together when I was a civil rights lawyer,
registering Hispanic voters and giving Hispanics a greater voice in City Hall.
We walked together in those marches for immigration reform. And if we get to
the polls this November, we will walk together through those White House doors
and into a new future for this country we all love.
That's how we'll make the system work again for
everyone. By living up to the ideals that this organization has always embodied
- the ideals reflected in your name - La Raza, the people. I'm told that the
original phrase was "La Raza Cosmica" - the cosmic people - a term
big enough to embrace the rich tapestry of cultures, colors and faiths that
make up the Hispanic community. Big enough to embrace the notion that we are
all part of a greater community - that we all have a stake in each other; that
I am my brother's keeper, I am my sister's keeper; and we rise and fall
together as one people.
So to that mother and all those who feel like
the system just isn't made for people like you, I say this: that system and
this country belong to every last one of us, black and white, Latino and Asian,
rich and poor, gay and straight, young and old. And this November, we're going
to come together to turn the page on the failed policies of the past. To bring
new energy and new ideas to meet the challenges we face. And together, we won't
just win an election - we will transform this nation.
Thank you, and God bless you.
Barack Obama is the President of the United
States of America.

Violence stemming migrant flow to U.S.
TENOSIQUE, Mexico – For years, Central
American migrants rode slow buses and freight trains across Mexico, then paid
“coyote” guides a few hundred dollars for a quick run or swim into the United
States.
It was a hard journey, but nothing like
today.
Warring mafias have turned once-sleepy farm towns and rail
crossings in Mexico into notorious junctions of kidnapping, torture and death,
creating a new geography of fear spanning from the U.S. border to the most
humble villages in Central America.
The soaring number of attacks on migrants in Mexico, and the
widely dispersed news of their barbarity, is discouraging many Central
Americans from even attempting the trip to the United States, according to
immigration officials, human rights advocates and the travelers themselves.
The flow of illegal Central American
migrants to the United States has been slowing since 2005, the result of the
sagging U.S. economy and increased law enforcement along the U.S. border,
experts say. But a powerful new reason has emerged: Today’s migrants face a far
more sinister journey and many have concluded it is just too dangerous.
“This is my fourth trip, but everything
is different now. They’ll kill you for nothing,” said Darling Diaz Garcia, a
Nicaraguan who was spending the night at a shelter in Tapachula across from the Guatemala border.

OBAMA AND THE FUNDING OF MEXICAN FASCISM FROM THE WHITE
HOUSE
FROM JUDICIAL WATCH
NCLR
Funding Skyrockets After Obama Hires Its VP
06/17/2011
A
Judicial Watch
investigation
reveals that federal funding for a Mexican La Raza group that for years has
raked in millions of taxpayer dollars has skyrocketed since one of its top
officials got a job in the Obama White House.
The
influential and politically-connected National Council of La Raza (NCLR) has
long benefitted from Uncle Sam’s largess but the group has made a killing since
Obama hired its senior vice president (Cecilia Muñoz) in 2009 to be his
director of intergovernmental affairs.
Ignored
by the mainstream media, Judicial Watch covered the
appointment
because the president issued a special “ethics waiver” to bring Muñoz aboard
since it violated his own lobbyist ban. At the pro illegal immigration NCLR,
Muñoz supervised all legislative and advocacy activities on the state and local
levels and she was heavily involved in the congressional immigration battles
that took place in the George W. Bush Administration.
She also brought in a steady flow of
government cash that’s allowed the Washington D.C.-based group to expand
nationwide and promote its leftist, open-borders agenda via a network of
community organizations dedicated to serving Latinos.Among them are a variety
of local groups that provide social services, housing counseling and farm
worker assistance as well as publicly-funded charter schools that promote
radical Chicano curriculums. Judicial Watch published a special report on this a few years ago.
This week a JW probe has uncovered
details of the alarming increase in federal funding that these NCLR groups have
received since Muñoz joined the Obama Administration. In fact, the government
cash more than doubled the year Muñoz joined the White House, from $4.1 million
to $11 million.
Not surprisingly, a big chunk of the
money (60%) came from the Department of Labor, which is headed by a former
California congresswoman (Hilda Solis) with close ties to the La Raza movement.
Since Obama named her Labor Secretary, Solis has launched a nationwide campaign
to protect illegal immigrant workers
in the U.S. Just this week Solis penned declarations with Guatemala and
Nicaragua to preserve the rights of their migrants.
The
NCLR also received additional taxpayer dollars from other federal agencies in
2010, the JW probe found. The Department of Housing and Urban Development doled
out $2.5 million for housing counseling, the Department of Education
contributed nearly $800,000 and the Centers for Disease Control a quarter of a
million.
Additionally,
NCLR affiliates nationwide raked in tens of millions of government grant and
recovery dollars last year thanks to the Muñoz factor. An offshoot called
Chicanos Por La Causa (CPLC) saw its federal funding nearly double to $18.3
million following Muñoz’ appointment.
A
social service and legal assistance organization (Ayuda Inc.) that didn’t
receive any federal funding between 2005 and 2008 got $600,000 in 2009 and
$548,000 in 2010 from the Department of Justice. The group provides immigration
law services and guarantees confidentiality to assure illegal aliens that they
won’t be reported to authorities.

LA RAZA SUPREMACIST HILDA SOLIS, SEC. OF DEPT OF LABOR.
Michelle Malkin
LA RAZA HILDA SOLIS - The U.S. Department of Illegal Alien
Labor
President Obama's Labor Secretary Hilda Solis is supposed to
represent American workers. What you need to know is that this longtime
open--borders sympathizer has always had a rather radical definition of
"American." At a Latino voter registration project conference in Los
Angeles many years ago, Solis asserted to thunderous applause, "We are all
Americans, whether you are legalized or not."
That's right. The woman in charge of enforcing our
employment laws doesn't give a hoot about our immigration laws ---- or about
the fundamental distinction between those who followed the rules in pursuit of
the American dream and those who didn't.

Labor Secretary Pledges Help For Illegal Workers
Last Updated: Tue,
06/22/2010 - 11:00am
Two months after the
Department of Labor launched a special program to assist and protect illegal
immigrants in the U.S. the Obama cabinet official who heads the agency is
personally encouraging undocumented workers to report employers that don’t pay
them fairly.
In a Spanish-language
public service announcement, Labor Secretary Hilda Solis
assures that “every worker in America has a right to be paid fairly, whether
documented or not.” Illegal aliens who are not getting fair wages are
encouraged to call a new hotline set up by the agency on a new “Podemos Ayudar” (We
Can Help) web page designed to administer worker protection laws and ensure
that employees are properly paid “regardless of immigration status.”
In the short video,
also posted in English, Solis tells illegal immigrants that it’s a “serious
problem” when workers in this country are not paid fairly and that all workers
have the right to receive their salary regardless of immigration status. She
encourages those who are not to call the new hotline and assures it’s free and
confidential. “Podemos ayudar,” (we can help), Solis guarantees at the end of
the brief segment.
