Como Se Dice 'Vote for Me' en Espanol?

Jun. 19, 2000

George Bush--all three generations of him--wants to woo Hispanic voters. Scarcely a week goes by when the Texas Governor--George W.--isn't hola-ing and comos estas-ing his way through a Hispanic community center or a classroom filled with Hispanic children. And late last week in New York City, his campaign released its first television ads of the general election--ads starring GEORGE P. BUSH, the candidate's charismatic 23-year-old Mexican-American nephew, in a direct pitch to New York's Puerto Rican voting bloc. The star turn will not be his last. "You're going to be seeing a lot more of him," beams a campaign adviser.

Even George H.W. Bush--the patriarch of the namesakes--is getting into the swing of things. Sources tell TIME that the former President, who once famously referred to his Mexican-American grandchildren, including George P., as "the little brown ones," recently urged his son's campaign to hold a national Hispanic event aimed at luring Hispanics away from the Democrats. The way things are going, the Republican Convention will be a fiesta de la familia.

1. Ah - so that's the plan.

Jebbie's son will be the heir to the throne if they can get all the illegal Mexicans legalized with voting power. Geez. :eyes:

2. umm.. the plan worked (as in the past)

[Avalux]

4. yeah - hopefully not this time. n/t

3. The Plan will go over like a lead balloon

Very few of us, including hispanic immigrants, can be fooled any longer by a Bush seeking votes. Been there, done that and NO SALE.

6. They won't be fooled

by Bush's reference to his nephews. The poor immigrant that toils hard for a living sees right through his act. Besides that...these nephews who have trust funds to spend look down on the poor sucker who barely makes ends meet. The immigrants might be poor but they are not dumb.

5. How's that going to work?

"Look in 2006 we gave free rein to our anti hispanic hardliners. But this year we love you Hispanics."
