2012 U.S. Elections...Mexicans may swing votes in Florida! Politicians to grovel?

United States of Mexicana

Sarah Palin scopes polling stations!

Americans across the country sat bolt upright in their armchairs this past week when a late-night news broadcast reported that in a scant few years - the Latino population in the United States - has tripled from 15 million to 50 million strong!

A smartly-dress political pundit proceeded to underscore that because of this immigrant trend, the chips may be stacked against potential candidates who don't kow-tow to the Mexican community's demands in Florida, for example, in the upcoming election in 2012.

Corrupt politicians - with connections in high places (think along the lines of  George W. Bush cronies) - aren't necessarily going to be able to snatch up the ticket without a tough fight in the final analysis.

If a politician wants to take the State (and bask in the glow of a victory) - whether Democrat or Republican - he (or she) is going to have to appeal to that sector of the community apparently.

Is President Obama above a little schmoozing, or does he also intend to reach out to the immigrants and an obvious force in the United States that is to reckon with now?

Another Civil War on horizon in America?

Peter King's Hearings Hurt Our Troops

 Quick question - which U.S. President was the first to hold Ramadan itfar dinners at the White House, celebrating the breaking of the fast with Muslims? Hint: That same President visited Mosques more than once during his administration.
Many FOX News viewers may assume that it's President Obama. But, it was actually George W. Bush.
It's no secret that VoteVets.org had a number of issues with President Bush, most notably his decision to go to war in Iraq, and how he waged the war. However, one thing he understood, and often got right, was sending signals to reassure the Muslim world that the United States held no animus towards Islam, both in words and deeds.
I thought of President Bush as the debate heated up over Rep. Peter King's hearings today on Islam in America.
Rep. King is doing our troops no favors, as he specifically targets Muslims, and only Muslims, in his hearings on domestic terrorism. A key part of the work of our troops abroad is winning the hearts and minds of the people in any country we operate, and as of right now, most of them are Muslims. When they hear that the American government considers Islam a threat, and is investigating American Muslims, it only bolsters the message of al Qaeda and other terrorist groups that we are in a war with Islam.

Every wrong signal can be exploited, as we are in this important fight, and we must be extra-vigilant in ensuring that nothing we do aids the underlying message of our enemies, as they seek to recruit. Some signals, of course, are out of our control, like rumors that a soldier used the Quran as toilet paper at Guantanamo. But those things make it even more important that those in power do everything they can to combat the notion that we target this one religion. Peter King's hearings do just the opposite.
