Dominican heads Bronx Latinos in rally for Obama - Haile Rivera

“Latinos Con Obama,” a group of young Latinos & Latinas and dedicated supporters of senator Barack Obama, is heading down to the Washington, DC/Maryland/Virginia area today, headed by the Dominican Haile Rivera.

“Our goal in the DC/MD/VA area this weekend is to focus on the Latino community and visit businesses, bodegas, restaurants, beauty parlors, and just talk to the Latinos about who Barack Obama is and why we should stand with him and vote for him on Tuesday, February 12th. It is no secret that the Latino community has a deep affection for the Clintons because of Bill Clinton’s Presidency. However, I am convinced that once they hear where she (Hillary) stands on the issue of immigration, they will re-think supporting her. We (Latinos) can not support or have a President who believes that the best thing to do is deport individuals “with no questions asked” and “without due process.” This is something I would expect from a Bush administration but definitely not a true Democrat”, said Rivera, Founder and Coordinator of Latinos Con Obama.”*
