Obama Statement on Hispanic Heritage Month

U.S. Senator Barack Obama released the following statement today to commemorate Hispanic Heritage Month.

"This month, I join all Americans in celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month, a time to honor the achievements and sacrifices of Hispanic Americans. From a long tradition of service in the United States military to the visionary leadership of César Chávez, one of our nation's civil rights giants, Hispanic Americans have helped sew the social, economic, and cultural fabric of America.

"But despite all the progress we've made together, we know that there is more work to be done. I stood side by side with the Hispanic community when I was a community organizer in Chicago, I've stood by their side at immigration rallies, and I'll stand by their side when I'm President. We need to pass comprehensive immigration reform, reduce the Latino student drop-out rate, finally enact the DREAM Act, and provide the 15 million uninsured Latinos with affordable, high-quality health care. And let's end this war in Iraq now and turn the page on the failed policies of the last seven years that have left Latinos, and so many other Americans, behind.

"What has always distinguished the Latino community - and what distinguishes us as Americans - is our belief that with big dreams and hard work, anything is possible. And with the energy the Latino community brings to our democracy and our economy, we can be assured that America's future will be bright. So this month and every month, let's reaffirm our shared history as a nation of immigrants dedicated to prosperity and opportunity for all."

Its ironic that Hillary Clinton now needs to win Texas considering how often she bashes President Bush who is from Texas. Lots of luck

The anointing of Not ready for prime time Barack by Ted Kennedy and some of his clan gave him the impetus and subsequent media attention needed to help him overcome Hillary's lead. With Hillary down and possibly out and all of our more competent and experienced leaders (Biden/Dobbs) ignored by the media and those swayed by image and so-called charisma, I fear that the Dems are going to shoot themselves in the foot yet again. Do you really think that the Reps. would rather face Hillary than Obama? I think we may have lost our chance to deny so-called conservatives the further destruction of government. While Barack's handlers may be able to set up a firewall of protection during the primaries, his inexperience will be exposed during the national campaign and I fear that many independents will be swayed to support the status quo and familiarity of McCain, despite the negative consequences of the policies he will be compromised to offer to maintain conservative support.

I really think that the Dem voters are doing McCain a favor by anointing Obama over Hillary. He wouldn't be where he is now without the Teddy K. wing of the Kennedy clan's recent support. He got lots of media and cheerleading impetus from that point on and he still has not shown anything outside of well rehearsed campaign speeches and a firewall of protection by his handlers who seem to deflect any pertinent criticisms from others. Teddy should be ashamed to compare Obama to the spirit and excellence of John. Barack, you are no John Kennedy. It won't be that easy in the finals and I suspect many will shift to McCain as a less chancy alternative. If "Not ready for prime time" Obama is the choice, I fear that, once again, the Dems will have shot themselves in the foot and we will lose our opportunity to reverse the many decades of damage by a continuance of so-called conservative policies that aim to destroy government of the people, for the people, and by the people. Do they really think the Reps., despite their hatreds, fear facing Barack over Hillary, Is it all about charisma, image and power brokers? I guess that's why our best qualified candidates were ignored early on in the process: Biden and Dobbs.

i would also like to know what exactly in the past 30 years hostillary has done for minorities? how and when? give specifics please. she has never walked a mile in my shoes and never will. she is a polarizing figure and if she wins the nomination people will flock to vote for mccain.

what experience? she is a junior senator, has passed NO major legislation, her health care reform plan was a fiasco, whitewater, she stands by a man who has cheated on her numerous times--this is what you want to lead our nation? she can't even stand up for herself. we all know their marriage is a sham, yet she clings to him with that silly grin on her face--what else is she lying about?

Hillary claims to have 35 years experience. What experience? She failed at Health care reform while Bill was president. She has treated secret service personnel like dirt. She has never accomplished anything duri9ng her Senate career. She says she will pull the troops out of Iraq. This is a huge mistake as Iraq is now beginning to show huge progress. THe Iraqis are returning to Bagdad and other towns as the areas become safer. The different tribes are beginning to work together. I could go on and on but this is enough to make a person doubt that Hillary would is a good choice for the highest office in this country.

I certainly dont think that Hillary will do a thing that will help us. maybe in the short run ,but not in the long run.Plus we dont need more than one president! with electing Hillary it would make it so she was talking but her words would come from Bill! She talks about taking the millitary out of Iraq, but how? Wouldnt that show all the other countries that we are a weak country by taking our millitary out randomly?! i dont think Hillary is the way to go!

i support Clinton,but my father support Obama!there is always some disagreement!------------

I suspect that is why we elect a congress and a president to help keep trade in this company fair. If what you say is true about the corporations could have done more at the local and state levels. Then that leads me to believe that Clinton was in bed with the corporations knowing that they would move jobs out of the country. And that hopefully was not the case.

Relying upon TX is a bad move for Clinton, and probably not in the cards since Republicans have already resigned themselves to running aganst either candidate.

Since they win most by Hillary losing, chances are that she will not win TX, especially where Bush as President prefers a Republican replacement.

You cast your vote for Hillary and I will cast mine for Obama. I want something different and I can see no change in the politics of Hillary from what we already have. Greedy Corporations running the country with their lobbyist and money.

fortheloveofmoney: By now, you know the media has had it in for the Clintons since the 90s. Payback. Also, I am not sure what you mean that Obama's money is clean. He packaged donations to avoid the Feingold/McCain. HE HAS 700 million. That is ridiculous to squander and unfair. He went back on his word. Check out his integrity by looking at archives of Chicago Sun Times.
