Guess who is going to be the next governor of New Mexico? Guess who is going to be the first Hispanic woman elected governor in the US?
Her name is Susana Martinez!
According to recent polls, Martinez is now leading in the polls, 51-41. (Katz)
Add Marco Rubio in Florida!
How do Republican Hispanics differ from Dem Hispanics?
First, we believe in border security and legal immigration.
Second, we support "guest worker visas", the only rational solution to legalize millions working in the US.
Who opposes "guest worker visas"? The Dems, or the same Dems who killed the "brasero" program in the 1960's.
We remind you of John Fund's article from 2007:
"I favor a comprehensive immigration bill that combines stepped-up border enforcement with a large guest-worker program and a method by which we can bring illegal immigrants out of the shadows of our society.
I've written before about how President Eisenhower's Bracero guest-worker program reduced arrests of illegal aliens at the border from over a million in 1954 to only 45,000 by 1959.
The number of arrests remained under 100,000 a year until 1964, when President Lyndon Johnson ended the program under pressure from labor unions."
Third, we believe in free markets and capitalism rather than looking to government for solutions.
Fourth, we are pro-life and believe that marriage is between a man and a woman!
Look out for Martinez and Rubio.....they are the future!
