McCain honors service of Hispanics in new ad

John McCain’s campaign continued its pitch to Hispanic voters on Memorial Day in a new web ad paying tribute to the service and sacrifice of Hispanics serving in the U.S. Armed Forces.

“When you go to Iraq or Afghanistan today, you’re going to see a whole lot of people who are of Hispanic background,” McCain says. “You’re even going to meet some of the few thousand that are still green card holders who are not even citizens of this country, who love this country so much that they’re willing to risk their lives in its service in order to accelerate their path to citizenship and enjoy the bountiful, blessed nation.””*
