Drawing on Deep Ties, Kennedy Reaches Out to Hispanics

When Sen. Edward M. Kennedy hits the campaign trail for Sen. Barack Obama Thursday and Friday, his focus will be Hispanics, a voter group that doesn’t know Obama well, but that has deep ties to Kennedy, who for 45 years has championed immigration rights.

Kennedy’s public schedule for Thursday and Friday lists community gatherings in New Mexico and California. Also on the agenda: Appearances on Spanish-language radio programs, interviews with Spanish-language newspapers, and phone calls to uncommitted local Hispanic leaders.”*
