In the weeks before the Florida primary, former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani appeared as the guest of honor at a Three Kings parade in Miami. Days later, Sen. John McCain stopped by an espresso counter in Little Havana to knock back an industrial-strength Cuban coffee and meet voters. On Friday, Sen. Barack Obama treated online browsers to a Spanish-language campaign ad addressed to “cooks, construction workers and professionals,” telling Hispanic viewers “You’re not alone.”
“It’s clear we have become a very important population in this country,” said Noris Brown, a Sunrise resident and native of Colombia. “There is a momentum. It’s huge.”"*
