Top 10 reasons McCain should repudiate the National Council of La Raza
I told you yesterday about John McCain’s plans to speak to the National Council of La Raza (The Race) in July. Here are the top 10 reasons he should repudiate the radical open borders, speech-squelching group that he has long embraced:
10. La Raza supports driver’s licenses for illegal aliens.
9. La Raza supports in-state tuition discounts for illegal alien students that are not available to law-abiding US citizens and law-abiding legal immigrants.
8. La Raza opposes cooperative immigration enforcement efforts between local, state, and federal authorities.
7. La Raza sponsors militant ethnic nationalist charter schools subsidized by your public tax dollars, including the “Aztlan Academy” in Tucson, AZ, the Mexicayotl Academy in Nogales, AZ, and Academia Cesar Chavez Charter School in St. Paul, Minn.
6. La Raza gives mainstream cover to a poisonous subset of ideological satellites, led by Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan, or Chicano Student Movement of Aztlan (MEChA), which the late GOP Rep. Charlie Norwood rightly characterized as “a radical racist group…[and] one of the most anti-American groups in the country, which has permeated U.S. campuses since the 1960s, and continues its push to carve a racist nation out of the American West.”
5. La Raza opposes a secure fence on the southern border.
4. Former La Raza president Raul Yzaguirre, Hillary Clinton’s Hispanic outreach advisor said this:
“US English is to Hispanics as the Ku Klux Klan is to blacks.” He was referring to US English the nation’s oldest, largest citizens’ action group dedicated to preserving the unifying role of the English language in the United States.
La Raza also pioneered Orwellian open-borders Newspeak and advised the Mexican government on how to lobby for illegal alien amnesty while avoiding the terms “illegal” and “amnesty.”
3. La Raza is currently leading a smear campaign against staunch immigration enforcement leaders and has called for TV and cable TV networks to keep immigration enforcement proponents off the airwaves–in addition to pushing for Fairness Doctrine policies to shut up their foes.
2. La Raza has consistently opposed post-9/11 national security measures at every turn.
1. The National Council of La Raza means The National Council of “The Race,” for God’s sake.
Their signature slogan, chanted at pro-illegal alien rallies from coast to coast, is “La raza unida nunca sera vencida.”
“A united [Hispanic] race will never be defeated.”
What possible good will come out of a GOP presidential candidate giving legitimacy and credibility to a sovereignty-undermining, assimilation-rejecting, law-defying group that calls itself “The Race?”
***
I agree that John McCain should not attend any conference of a group called “National Council of the Race.” In a multiracial society, Rev. Wright’s “rich white folks,” Obama’s “typical white person”, and clingers comments, and the idea of “The Race” will eventually doom us all. And it’s time no one gets a pass any more.
Jonathan Martin cluelessly suggests that McCain is “trying to show that he’s not George W. Bush by going into the lion’s den and taking hostile, unscripted questions from adversarial groups.”
Hostile? Adversarial? Do your homework, MSM.
McCain was honored by The Race in 1999, keynoted The Race’s 2004 conference, and has championed their agenda for years.

What makes you think this hasn’t changed?
From the press release of McCain’s 1999 award:
Fannie Mae – any connection with the mortgage crisis????
AARP – one of the most influential lobbying organizations in DC.
Frito-Lay – big profits at bars and parties on May 5?????
See the full list of CORPORATE SPONSORS of La Raza.
Absolutely! Which goes along with rising costs of everything and the environment. You cannot be both for improving the environment and reducing consumption AND support the illegal invasion along with massive immigration.
AuH2O, been a while since I have heard that. Yep Goldwater, and I think many of todays conservatives would be surprised that he was an environmentalists (one who believed in using the environment wisely, not one who would use it to control the population). Also there was Everett Dirksen, one of my favorite senators.
Reason #11:
McCain: I was told on the phone today to press 1 for English. My friends, this is an outrage! If I am elected el presidente de Los Estados Unidos, I will make sure every phone tree asks you to press 2 for English!
#92 I’m with you and have believed this for quite some time. This country has stopped immigration before for a period of time and it should be done again, for at least 5 years. But with the current three amigos running for president it will never happen. I keep voting Republican and will continue to do so (although I’m not so sure about voting for president at all this year). It just seems like the Republicans in Congress aren’t fighting for anything right now that matters. Where are they? I can’t remember the last time I heard one on the news saying anything I agreed with.
John McCain has a blog here.
Register and post your opinions on Senator McCain’s plans to speak to La Raza (keep it clean and polite).
It’s distrubing how easily you could have substituted “McCain” for “La Raza” in most of those points.

Perhaps Michelle should make this a permanent link on the page.
Is that where you go to become a degreed coyote?
Too often like butting your head against the wall, no?
I also will until or unless there is a more viable option. There are still many conservative Republicans worth supporting. I’ll vote for them when possible, and send money to them – not the National Committees.
I’m not going to abandon the party until all hope is gone. Keep working to weed out the traitorous RINOs.
Equivalent to the KKK!
Really!
We’ll I banish your group for violating the Alien and Sedition Act! Your attempts to weaken our government is a direct violation of said Act.
I am well within my rights as an American Citizen to form a well regulated militia to stop this sedition!
Our fore fathers set these laws to protect us and they are getting trampled on.
Bottom Line:
Mexican Total Lack of Culture and Corrupt Values is not acceptable in My Country.
McCain needs to get his head out of his ass now.
Federal Law is either fully enforacable or null and void. All of Them!
Neither Clinton, Obama or McCain hold with My Values or respect for the Law of the Land.
They are off track and are not deserving of the offices they hold or consideration as Commander in Chief.
Just not worthy of trust or deserving of consideration. Period.
La Raza, Bill Ayers, Mark Rich pardons and the lot of it. Not acceptable. Period.
They must All Believe that We are Stupid.
Some of You are but I am most certainly not! Having Fought and bled for this Nation, I am qualfied to make this statement.
None of the Above are qualified to hold office!
Flenser thanks for the link!

Well said guys. I was beginning to beleive I was the only one that thought this way. Most everyone has been beaten with the PC stick so long, they begin every sentence on illegal immigration, “I am all for immigration if it is legal”. Indicating any level is ok, just as long as it is legal. They are afraid to be labeled “anti-immigrant”. Who cares. Immigration was a necessity and great for the US 150 years ago. We had open spaces to settle and make productive. As long as they could farm and were willing to settle land, that was all that was required. There is no vacant land that nobody will take left. So immigraiotn needs to be tailored to OUR needs. Set standards like education, english, IQ, needed skills, AND NO WELFARE, etc. And curb levels to a fraction of current levels. Not stop but make sure it benefits Americans, not the immigrants themselves. Even better a 5 year moratorium to catch our breath. The libs have obfuscated this issue to where we argue a silly point about illegal immigration rather than the whoel immigration picture and what is an appropriate level. Gotta hand it to the libs. They are masterful with PC.
Let me just say this:
McCain never had my vote to begin with. I preferred Tancredo, Thompson or Romney over him. However, I was willing to allow him the chance to earn my vote, particularly after he claimed he “got it” on immigration. If he was to do something substantive between now and the elections (like say, propose new and better border fence legislation without the amnesty crap) he would have absolutely convinced me he was being honest.
However, with his pandering to La Raza, all he has proven to me is that he does NOT “get it” and will NEVER “get it” when it comes to Illegal Immigration. All he wants us conservatives to do is just “shut up and sit down”. I think he assumes we will vote for him just because snObama and Hillary are so bad.
McVain, I’ve got news for you: I will write in “Mickey Mouse” before I will vote for you. You lying, conniving sonofaB. I will vote Conservative and Republican come this fall on every line EXCEPT POTUS, which I will either leave blank, or (if I am able) I will write in “Mickey Mouse”. You can take your La Raza and stuff it McVain. You’ve lost my vote PERMANENTLY.
Is that a La Raza bbq I smell *-?
Ai corona!
Keep up the mighty damn fine work, Michelle!
Weary #110
Exactly we need to tailor it to our needs!
I just got a “Conservatives Against McCain” bumper sticker from CAfe Press and I plan to put it on my car ASAP. I will carry it with pride! I am proud NOT to vote for McCain, very proud. Now, I am sure I will hear the people who, out of fear, WILL vote for him call me stupid, naive, shortsighted, etc., etc. Go ahead, make my day!!!!!!!!! At least when McCain scr**s conservatives over and over again after he is elected, i won’t be kicking myself. I will try not to rub it in either.
There. Fixed it.
The American Thinker reports:
We’ve got to get serious, is this really the only candidate the Republicans can put up for president?
That really chaps my hide. Can’t the conservatives start a write-in campaign?
McCain: dump laraza to become electable.
Maybe the Mc Man is not :
the LESSER of three evils.
We KNOW the other two are SOCIALIST.
Michele,
All reasonable Americans you know in the media…Buchanon,Dobbs, Savage,Beck need to leave their egos at home and join together in a HUGE march on WAshington to say STOP THIS INSANITY!
We Americans have had enough! I don’t want to hear anymore excuses about how we all work and can’t make it…This is our country for GD sake!! And there isn’t much time left to save it!!! Either we all make it there or we arm ourselves for the civil war that is surely coming…Take a look at third world LA and see your future!
In order for a civil war to occur, we need rather widespread poverty, with an encrusted wealthy class. Don’t worry, as globalization spreads to white (there’s that word again) collar jobs, we’ll be there soon.
I can tell you McCain has a fight in St. Paul if he wants to push this crap on us. Two other delegates in addition to myself will vote Ron Paul rather than McCain if he speaks to “The Race”. Paul is still technically a candidate and would be more deserving our support. Since Romney won the state we are free to choose our alternate.
The hypocrisy is so thick when it comes to illegal immigration being courted by various groups it is amazing we all don’t drown in the dung created by this bullcrap.
Riddle me this, (strictly hypothetical what if scenario) if our southern neighbor was North Korea (aka a totalitarian, repressive, communist regime that threatened to blow us up on a daily basis) instead of Mexico would the same groups (greedy business wanting cheap labor at any cost to society, and corrupt politicians wanting votes and a new underclass of subservient yes-men) be advocating open borders?
I’d be willing to wager any amount of money it would become the world’s largest demilitarized zone in a heartbeat.
Money and power, tools of corruption used before we even started recording history down to be read and still going strong today.
I know it hasn’t changed. So does everybody else that understands basic math. That was my point. They let it slip from consciousness so they could let the illegals come in and solve the problem.
Our workforce is aging and as the baby boomers retire, they will be taking an increasing chunk of the budget. We need to get more tax money to cover these “entitlements”. If the politicians look the other way and let in 20-40 million people, then decide we have to be humanitarian and give them amnesty, they can become tax paying citizens and fill the SS coffers. The problem is that it is a Ponzi scheme as Weary Citizen (no relation) has stated. This has all been done to hide the fact that spending is out of control. Personally, I believe that money will be the cause of any revolution, coup, or civil war that we have here.
Weary Citizen @ 2:42, Ditto.
Whether immigration is increased, decreased or eliminated altogether, it’s our home, our choice. Explanations or apologies about those decisions is entirely optional.
IMHO, McCain is fully aware of the risks and the consequences of his agenda. It will be up to the American People to educate him with the unforeseen consequences.
Why should McCain repudiate them for these 10 things?
He along with his supporters agree on them with all their hearts.
I am all for legal immigration, what is being pushed is the destruction of our sovereignty. I Mexican citizen can get a work visa in 6 to 8 months, so why would they pay more and risk more to come here illegally. What is the percentage of inmates in prison between legal residents and illegal? If you want to come here, you need to obey our rules, what is so hard about that?
# 114 RIC:
Your post made me smile-thank you.
RIC
Not to worry, you’ll have many willing to drive, stand or strut beside you… Now, I gotta get that bumper sticker myself.
Using this comment section as gauge when MM posts articles related to McCain and amnesty it would appear he has burned his conservative bridge all the way down now. Hispanics and Independent voters won’t be near enough to elect this creep in November. I hope the good people of AZ throw this traitor out; he is one rotten piece of……………………………………… Lettuce.
McFraud should be impeached as a Senator and tried for treason if he meets with this group while representing the USA.
And speaking of “Orwellian”, we already live in an Orwellian nightmare where up is down, and down is up. Politicians meeting with racist groups pandering like beggars for votes; black “leaders” may say anything negative they want about white people while the opposite brands you a racist; illegal immigrants boldly parade in the face of law enforcement in the streets; if you call for enforcement of our immigration laws, even Republican politicans (including the President!!) brand you racist and bigoted; welfare recipients shamelessly demand that they are entitled to more more more; atheists sue the government to remove God from our national symbols and the Plege of Allegiance, all while 96% of American citizens profess belief in a higher power; we dare not print pictures of Mohommed in our newspapers, but showing a picture of the Virgin Mary covered in feces is perfectly alright; our children are forced to learn about Islam, but dont the same children even dare to pray in a public school; killers of our military and people that plot to mass murder us are given constitutional protections..etc. etc.
Orwellian indeed.

I agree.. we need a revolution or something to make them listen to US
#130 even orwell after the spanish revolution understood the left was nuts!
Everyone should sign up for Numbers USA, you can send free faxes to congress…
they even send you a reminder to let you know a new fax is ready to send.
But I don’t think that it will keep the stench of a McStain President from reaching your nose.
And just what “race” are La Raza referring too? Since there is no such thing as the “hispanic race” or “Mexican race” to whom are they referring?
The GOP needs to pick someone else at the convention. Otherwise I’m voting for Ron Paul, Ralph Nader, anyone other than the three turkeys. This is flat out ridiculous. I feel like I’m in a banana republic already.
Want another fun chuckle at the lunacy of their “The Race” Hitleresque claims? The Spanish language spoken by proponents of “The Race” is that of their 16th century conquerors. Me asustan.
Listen up McInsane you’re going to get your A$$ handed to you come November. Hope that money from La Raza spends well, ya sell out.
McInsane, traitor, sell out, McPain, McShame, hoping he chokes to death…There’s the thanks from a grateful nation for your service and time as a P.O.W., Senator! Hope all the broken teeth, bones, torture and years in solitary were worth it!
I saw Ron Paul on Fox this afternoon. They advertised him as still running for POTUS on the Republican ticket. Can that be?
I think I’ll vote for him. As kooky as Paul is, he’s still an improvement over the other 3 clowns (with apologies to clowns everywhere…).
I’m not buying a bumper sticker. I’m sick of being whined at and scolded by these illegals.
I’m buying a gun…
Awesome work you have done on this Michelle. Thank you!
Only because of dingle-berries and nincompoops in early primary places like Iowa and New Hanpshire, who vote for huckle-berries and the senile, are we even having another McCain nightmare conversation.
Let’s work like h&ll to retake Congress. Let the executive branch crash and burn with the democrats in ‘08. We’ll pick up the pieces in ‘12, a la jimmy carter.
McCain does not merit one conservative vote.
Senile McCain, Senile McCain, Senile McCain,Senile McCain, Senile McCain, Senile McCain.

Juan McCain does not deserve the vote of one American Citizen.
So that’s what the “R” next to McCain’s name means, “Raza!”
