Bill Richardson, Gov. of New Mexico, has a real shot at VP in 08. From there, who knows?\n\nI think he's half Mexican/Nicaraguan.

I don't believe those numbers there be a lot more people than that. I think your way to pessimistic. You need to look on the bright side, you wont have to mow your lawn, they'll be a Mexican restaurant at every corner right next to the gas station owned by an Arab. You'll be  able to learn a foreign language, such as Spanish. And you know what when you grow old and if your fortunate enough to grow old you probably  be  taken care by a colored person.  You no that Hispanics will if not are already the majority in most states. If you want to get away from them i think you should definitely move to one of the southern states towards the east. What really is your point to stir up hate and animosity.\nI side with the president on this issue. I think he's doing a great job on this issue. :  )

That would be so great!!  But the canidate would have to stay away from selling out.  We have so many that make it in politics because of our voting power, but then get tripped up with all the hoopla surrounding them.  Henry Cisneros comes to mind, in this instance, he forgot where he came from.  If you watched the Alma Awards the president of La Raza, a Latina, was so well spoken and her agenda sounded refreshing for a change. She would be a prime canidate, but I don't know her name!!? :(  I think it is foolish to believe white old men are the only ones capable of running our country.  I'm prepping my son for the great opportunity to become President of the United States, So Watch out America, He's Laaaaaaatino! :  )

II live in Texas and I feel the same way, that is why I keep writing to the governor of Pennysilvania, asking him to please run for President.  His name is Edward Rendell, and in his state landlords who house these illegals are fined, and the illegals deported.  If there is a second offense the property is taken, and given to the community for low cost housing. \nAny company caught hiring illegals recieves a big fine, and loses their business licenses.  \nAll of the schools are being forced to check the legal status of all of the children, to make sure none are enrolled under stolen identities.  And, he is just now celebrating with his state the largest tax cut ever recorded in the state.  He has taken a hard line when it comes to protecting his people, and this is the kind of president I want.  His people told him that they wanted the illegal Alien laws enforced, and he did it.  He is a real politician for the people, and that is what America needs.  No more candidates telling us they don't care what we want, they have their own agenda, and it does not include the American people.\nI went to every politicians web site that I could find to see what politicians are out there that we as Americans might want as Candidates.  After an exhuasting search, and reading the same crap over and over, I finally came across Mr. Rendell's web site.  I looked over his agenda, and believe me, I haven't seen that kind of interest from a politician in his people since, never actually.  I have heard of them, but I thought they were a myth, like illegals being immigrants.  I've wrote his office to ask him if he is running, and I awaiting his response.  I might not live in his state, but I want him as my next president.  No more Bush's or any of his crooked comrads.

That would depend on how the Hispanics feel about the new American version of "Mexicanos, al grito de guerra" (Mexican National Anthem) which we will get Toby Keith to sing as a new B side to his hit record "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue (The Angry American)".

It was pretty bad in 2000, sort of like a high school student who mostly falls asleep in Spanish class. There was a pretty good improvement in 2004 although, nowhere near fluent. I heard him a year ago and again more improvement, he keeps getting better, but unless there has been a HUGE change, he couldn't be described as anywhere near fully "fluent" even now. (In all fairness, he is by far the closest thing to a "Spanish-speaking" President in the history of the United States.)\n\nNow his little brother Jeb! Now he IS fantastically fluent in Spanish. (He once taught English down in Leon, Guanajuato) I heard him speaking on a Mexican network news show last summer about a hurricane warning in Florida and he was just talking off the cuff without even notes and he's totally fluent in Spanish all right, (he doesn't even have that really annoying accent most gringos always have!) His Mexican wife, Columba, must have been busy kicking his ass until he got it right, for sure........

Just give it time...  los latinos pueden llegar a ser los no. 1    (Lorena Ochoa)  =)

Are you kidding? There is already a recall push against him, just as mayor.\n\nMecha plus trying to take over the school system with no plan beyond 'trust me' is a bad combination.\n\nAnd Marc, I have no problem with Latinos and would vote for one for president if he was best for the job, including not considering himself to be more a President for Latinos than for all the rest of us.  It is this one guy I have a problem with.

We should all aspire to be just like him.....\n\nugh.....only 2 more years.  Hope the people that voted for him have learned a lesson.

I am a white male, 46 years old, and born in Texas. I don't think all Hispanics are from Mexico. Most are, but not all. Where I work, me and my supervisor are the only whites in our department. The rest are Hispanic (from Mexico) and Vietnamese. I love these guys. They are all very friendly, funny and good people. One guy in a different department is Hispanic (from Honduras) I like him a lot, and he seems to like me. My next door neighbors are Hispanic (from Guatemala), again very nice people. In my neighborhood there use to be only whites, when I was a child and teen. Now there are many Hispanic families, and a few black families. I have no problem with any of them. They are no problem here. Honestly, I don't care where you come from or what your race is. I only want those coming to the US to do so legally so that we know who is coming in and why (to keep out those that would hurt or kill us). YOU, who you are, is much more important than where you come from. You seem intelligent and would probably be a good friend.\n\nVia Con Dios, Amigo\n\nAdios,\nTerry

Yes. Hispanics have every right to be here.  They are doing noone harm.  In fact, they are doing the jobs that you and I don't want to do, which enables society to keep moving forward. It si discrimination.  Full Stop.

about 6 months from when you cross the border, assuming that you came legally. If you are here illegally and you have been watching Mexican news on Univision, dont hold your breath. They make it sound like Bush will give papers to all illegal immigrants that are in the US, he does not have the power to do this on his own, the rest of the government has to agree. I dont think that it is very likely.

Hopefully we just pick the best President to lead our country regardless of race or color.
