Senators Hillary Clinton (D-NY) will appear at the organization’s Presidential Banquet on Friday, July 11th. All three Senators underscore the importance candidates are placing on the Latino vote in the upcoming election.

McCain will speak at LULAC's Unity Luncheon at noon on July 8 in the International Ballroom of the Hilton at 1919 Connecticut Ave., N.W. Obama will speak at an “Open Dialogue with Obama” Forum on the same day at 4:30 p.m. in the International Ballroom. Senator Clinton is scheduled to address the convention's Presidential Awards Banquet at 7 p.m. on July 11.

The Presidential candidates Senator Obama and Senator McCain will appear before hundreds of Latino leaders from across the country, community, political and business leaders at the 79th annual convention of the nation's oldest and largest Hispanic advocacy group. "The candidates are vigorously vying for the Latino vote," said Rosa Rosales, LULAC National President of the 115,000-member organization. "Our voting power has been an important factor in the last decade and it is becoming more critical with each election, particularly in key battleground states such as Florida, Ohio, Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada and Florida. At least 9.2 million Latinos will cast their votes this November.”

LULAC, a nonpartisan civil rights organization, is participating in a nationwide voter registration drive aimed at significantly increasing the Hispanic vote in the Nov. 4 election. According to the Pew Hispanic Center, "Hispanics constitute a sizable share of the electorate in four of the six states that President Bush carried by margins of five percentage points or fewer in 2004 -- New Mexico (where Hispanics make up 37% of the state's eligible electorate); Florida (14%); Nevada (12%) and Colorado (12%). All four are expected to be closely contested once again in 2008."

The theme of LULAC's convention, America's Latino Community Center Stage, highlights the importance of Latino voters in determining the next president. "Every year the LULAC national convention draws attention to the challenges facing Latino," said Ms. Rosales. "This year will be no exception as we focus on such issues as voter participation, education, immigration and health care reform and the need to increase Latino representation in the highest levels of government and corporate governance. We are delighted that Senator Obama, Senator Clinton and Senator McCain will be joining us as we work on these critical issues.

Sure, some Latinos are racist since there are racists in every ethnic and racial group, but I hadn't seen any evidence that the problem is worse among Hispanics.

Therefore, I argued, you couldn't dismiss overwhelming Latino support for Sen. Hillary Clinton over Obama as the result of racism."

Martin Sandoval (D-Chicago) was one of just a tiny handful of Illinois Democratic state legislators who backed Hillary Clinton's presidential bid instead of local favorite Barack Obama.

Sandoval's district and most of the Chicago area's Latino precincts went for Clinton in the February primary, so it probably was a smart move. Plus, Sandoval has been engaged in a full-blown Statehouse war with Senate President Emil Jones for well more than a year, so backing Clinton against Jones' political Godson had its "stick in the eye" advantages."
