Why are Hispanics not voting Obama???

Are you actually trying to generate a civil discussion or do you have ulterior motives?


If at all possible, I would like to see the source for this claim. Interesting if true. I know some of you have horror stories about Mexicans (I presume this is who you're referring to) but I have yet to cross one I had problems with.

Look no further than Nevada for proof. The problem is, we're the only ones on a united front. Spics look down at us, fuck them bitches...
 
Yeah in Nevada Hillary had like 60% of the hispanic vote and John Edwards had more than Obama. This is critical because in the southwest and west, the Hispanic vote is more important than any other minority vote.
 
only negroes think that black and brown are the same thing...

EVERYONE else knows the difference.

especially hispanics...

go to wash hts and call a dominican a black person...

go to east LA and call a mexican a black person....

go to fordham rd and call a puerto rican a black person...

odds are youll get a fat loogie in your face.

WE have to stop looking for validation from these other ethnicities/races and take care of our own first.

This is exactly what I was thinking. This thread isn't going to be productive, just tit for tat bullshit that's already been discussed ad nauseum.

By the way, the Clinton strategy of highlighting differences (in opposition to Obama's themes of unity) is one of the main things hurting him. Creating a thread strictly designed for black people to sit around bashing Mexicans is lower-level, Clintonian Bush League bullshit and only detracts further from Obama's message and chances.
 
It has to do with education,and many immigrants that come to the US are NOT educated.In mexico racism thrives,and they immigrate here to the US carrying that racism.This is why,i support a law that states that EVERY immigrant that wants to be a citizen here goes to school to get educated in Sociology and race relations,BEFORE having all the children that they do,and breeding MORE racism.This is of course just another setup by white supremacists,they know mexicans are catholics and do not believe in condoms and have a lot of children.They have all these children and propell racism and division between black and brown,when they immigrate here.
 
Since we're rehashing old shit...

There seems to be jealousy on both ends, this thread clearly indicates.

Those of you who choose to perpetuate messages of hate and stereotypes only make things worse. The Mexicans who hear you will only be pushed further away and you may even alienate those who are friendly to your cause. The blacks who hear you will have their ignorance reinforced and, as only 15% of the population, it takes true ignorance to think we can accomplish anything on this scale without allies.

This bullshit about tacos and burritos isn't funny to me. It's nothing but ignorance and lowers you to the level of those who would make the same stupid claims about blacks, substituting chicken and watermelon as they disparage a whole people.
Obama calls for unity to heal divisions
By NEDRA PICKLER, Associated Press Writer
A whole damn week ago

Barack Obama on Sunday called for unity to overcome the country's problems as he acknowledged that "none of our hands are clean" when it comes to healing divisions.

Heading into the most racially diverse contest yet in the presidential campaign, Obama took to the pulpit at Martin Luther King Jr.'s Ebenezer Baptist Church on the eve of the federal holiday celebrating the civil rights hero's birth 79 years ago. His speech was based on King's quote that "Unity is the great need of the hour."

"The divisions, the stereotypes, the scape-goating, the ease with which we blame the plight of ourselves on others, all of that distracts us from the common challenges we face: war and poverty; inequality and injustice," Obama said. "We can no longer afford to build ourselves up by tearing each other down. We can no longer afford to traffic in lies or fear or hate. It is the poison that we must purge from our politics; the wall that we must tear down before the hour grows too late."

Obama has called for a new kind of politics that he says should appeal to people's hopes, not their fears.

South Carolina, which holds its Democratic primary Saturday, is the first state where a large number of black voters will participate, and Obama needs a win to remain a front-runner in the race for the party's presidential nomination.

He is counting on blacks to stick with him despite losing to Hillary Rodham Clinton in two consecutive contests. He lost Nevada despite winning 83 percent of blacks, who made up 15 percent of the total vote. In South Carolina, they are expected to make up at least half the turnout.

Obama's campaign has worked to overcome a concern among black voters that he wouldn't be able to win an election in white America. After his victory in practically all-white Iowa, his poll numbers leaped among blacks.

"I understand that many of you are still a little skeptical," Obama said Friday night at a King banquet in Las Vegas. "But not as skeptical as you were before Iowa. Sometimes it takes other folks before we believe ourselves."

At Ebenezer, where King launched the civil rights movement, Obama spoke in front of a tightly packed crowd; hundreds more who had lined up outside in subfreezing temperatures couldn't get in. It was unclear whether the crowd was for Obama, the King holiday or caused by the unusual blast of ice and snow that closed other area churches.

"We had to fight, bleed and die just to be able to vote," the Rev. Raphael G. Warnock said in introducing Obama. "Now we can select presidents, and now with credibility and intelligence and power, we can run for president."

He teased worshippers who cheered at the sight of the most viable black presidential candidate in history. "I understand, but don't get it twisted," Warnock said.

Obama said blacks often have been the victims of injustice, but he said they also have perpetrated divisions with gays, Jews and immigrants.

"If we're honest with ourselves, we'll acknowledge that our own community has not always been true to King's vision of a beloved community," he said to applause.

Obama suggested he's allowed divisions to creep into his campaign in recent days. "Last week, it crept into the campaign for president, with charges and countercharges that served to obscure the issues instead of illuminating the critical choices we face as a nation. None of our hands are clean," he said.

Obama's and Hillary Rodham Clinton's campaigns engaged in several days of back and forth after Clinton's comments about King that some interpreted as minimizing his role in the passage of landmark civil rights legislation. The two candidates called a truce on that issue last week.

I still don't understand why it's so prevalent on this board. As blacks we should know better about how dangerous generalizations can be. But in retrospect, this is a problem that crosses all ethnicities.

This explains why you are such a bitch now , you fuckin fag
to bad they didnt shoot your ass :lol::lol::lol::lol:
 

Pre 1990 Latins in the NYC area were tight as hell. When I grew up PR and Cubans grew up in the same neighborhood and married each other. In the 1950s, 60s and 1970s, we were virtually one people. Black Panthers/Young Lords, Hip Hop started with Afro Americans and Afro Latins. Now something is dividing us and the Caucasoids are reaping the benefits. I guess this is what happens when you deal with that dope money. The devil’s poison will punish those that deal in it!
 
How come when a thread starts about Hispanics, all these dumb ass niggas run in here talking about Mexicans? Do you niggas not know that Mexicans are not the only Hispanics in America? :confused:

You would be surprised by that answer. A week ago in one of my classes the professor called specific groups (ethnicities) to the front of the class to sit down and talk about generalizations and stereotypes they normally hear and what do you think one of the answers where when Hispanics were called to the front?


you guessed it


'not all Hispanics are Mexican'


the lack of understanding and the amount of generalizations I hear on this board are astounding.


Not to mention I have seen numerous people say 'he/she looks Mexican'......how does someone look Mexican????
 
indeed. That is why its impossible to have an intelligent conversation (like you asked earlier) on this board. How can we really discuss the issue when most of these fools don't even know there is a difference...

When I meet someone of Hispanic descent, I always ask where they are from and proceed from there. Most appreciate me asking instead of just assuming they are all the same.

You're right. I think that Hillary and Edwards may have gotten more votes because they focused more on directing their campaigns in hispanic areas. The Hispanics that I know can't stand Hillary and John.
 
I thought we were one............ black and brown?????


:hmm:

Note to kayanation: please stop projecting your own personal and apparently profound inferiority complex about your blackness into an issue for all Black people.

"Why aren't Hispanics taking about Black people's problems... why aren't Hispanics voting for the Black candidate... why don't they love me, er, I mean us... waah waah waah"

It's obvious to anyone with a brain on here that you have some personal fucking issues that YOU need to deal with.

But in the meantime, please.... STFU already!!!
