If the Latino community was its own country it would be the 8th largest economy in the world, larger even than Italy, Brazil or South Korea.

Tune in now to @msnbc to hear @JoeBiden discuss Latinos as the engine of economic growth. Family values, hard work and persistence.

1. Cute soundbite, but dubious claim. How do we even count it?

2. Dupe post.

3. And the 8th largest economy would only VOTE at a ten percent rate. (The percent is a guess.)

4. The Latinx community in the US?

5. I don't see how you can isolate an ethnic group

in a country and pretend they have their own economy. Latinos, Irish, Italians, etc. don't produce and trade as a group, their work and investment is fully integrated into the American economy.
