GRIEGO: Latinos in Obama camp put cliches to rest - Denver

Upon being given the opportunity to cajole Obama supporters into joining the Clinton camp or vice-versa, first-time caucus-goer and Denver Public School Board member Arturo Jimenez, an Obama supporter, said in Spanish: You have a great opportunity to support a candidate who offers hope to many communities. It doesn’t matter, your race, age, gender.

I wished Sergio Bendixen were there.

Bendixen is the Clinton pollster quoted in a recent interview with The New Yorker as saying, “the Hispanic voter - and I want to say this very carefully - has not shown a lot of willingness or affinity to support black candidates.”"*
