For Our Puerto Rican Friends: “¡HILLARY, PUERTO RICO TE AMA !”

WRITTEN BY ANDY:

En unas horas mas comenzaran las elecciones primarias en Puerto Rico en donde 55 delegados boricuas estaran en juego.

Mas importante aun, es el dia en que Hillary Clinton obtendra una mayoria absoluta en el voto popular.

Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.usNadie en la historia ha recibido mas votos en una primaria que Hillary Clinton. Mas de 17 millones de ciudadanos americanos han votado por ella. Hillary Clinton es la clara eleccion de la gente para representar al partido democrata en Noviembre.

El voto latino ha jugado un rol fundamental en estas primarias. Y sin ninguna duda seran clave a la victoria en Noviembre. Solo un candidato tiene ese voto asegurado: Hillary Rodham Clinton. Ella es la ganadora y lo sera en Noviembre.

Ricky Martin expreso este sentimiento al declarar su apoyo por Hillary:

“Estas elecciones tienen repercusiones históricas tanto para los Estados Unidos como para el mundo. En el caso de las primarias presidenciales la participación latina será determinante por lo que debemos aprovechar esta oportunidad para dejar sentir nuestra fuerza”

“La senadora Clinton siempre ha sido consistente en su compromiso con las necesidades de nuestra comunidad tales como la educación, la salud y el bienestar social”

ADELANTE HILLARY !!!! TU ERES NUESTRA PRESIDENTA.

Isn`t it convenient that Father Phlegm came out so it would give him a chance to leave the church. This phony can`t fool me for a minute.

 

Comment by HARP | 2008-05-31 19:07:58

All the R`s have to do is keep referring to him as Marxist in every TV interview. Kiss your 401k goodbye, those shares you had on Wall street, taxed at 30% Oh well we have Obama to keep us safe from terrorism……

Anyone live blogging the Obama resignation (from his church) press conference on Fox? I hope it’s a preview to a resignation press conference of another kind.

So far lots of uuhh. He’s outdoing himself.

Hey I think the image needs to be scaled down. It’s stretching across my browser. Maybe add height= and width= to the img src tag.

Comment by Andy | 2008-05-31 19:39:33

Done!! Thanks.

 
 

Comment by Mr.Murder | 2008-05-31 19:29:08

Hillary has major support there, part of it could become a counter positive item if it was pointed out.

It is what it is, on that topic. On the whole there’s a greater value to the results, voters there are for more likely to vote for their interests, far less likely to be convinced by the kind of campaigning that has become a domestic staple.

Real issues matter more to Puerto Rico’s voters.

Gay marriage, stem cell research, etc. will have to be plausible items elsewhere. For the direct correlation of vote to policy that benefits average or median incomes the most, look to place like this.

For that reason, true political poll wonks should value results there above most locations. It is a pattern indicator of broader fundamental motivations.

gracias amigo

 

Comment by Billo | 2008-05-31 19:35:30

Sadly after today this is looking like a Hillary farewell tour.

If Hillary takes it to Denver i will think it a ploy to keep democrats registered as is instead of switchin.

BTW there are way more latin marxists than black so maybe hillary isn’t the free market goddess we think she is.

 

Comment by Mr.Murder | 2008-05-31 19:38:01

Keep in mind voters there still favor family values, cultural reinforcement helps with that. Real family values are about a living wage, honorable pay for honorable work. The family values vote that occurs there is the one to model elsewhere for gain.

An economy that thrives upon tourism develops a unique sense of warmth from being host to many visitors. It’s great to see that politicians can meet there and share those experiences as well. For once you can let Hillary be Hillary, and people seeing it like what they see.

More people should plan visits there, from what I can see.

it does look like a cool place for R&R.
And it looks like HRC is having a blast!

Comment by standard | 2008-05-31 22:46:15

O’Reilly had a groovy show Friday.
He’s mellowing out to encompass a larger viewing audience - as KO hardens into a tight pustule of hate.

Qué pasa? No comprendo. That’s probably incorrect, but I wish I understood Spanish. I only know French and English. Being trilingual would be cool tho. I heard the last Pope knew over 50 languages. That’s nuts (in a good way).

 

Comment by PaganPower | 2008-05-31 21:02:37

I am so glad I studied Spanish in college. I didn’t get every single word but I do understand the vast majority of this post.

Thank you for posting this in the native language of Puerto Rico.

 

Comment by PaganPower | 2008-05-31 21:17:22

A rough translation:

In a few hours the primary election in Puerto Rico will commence where 55 delegates are in play. But most importantly this is the day that Hillary will obtain an absolute majority of the popular vote.

No one in history has received more votes than Hillary Clinton. 17 million citizens have voted for her. She is the clear selection of the people to represent the democratic party in November. The Latin vote has played a fundamental role in these primaries. And they certainly provide the certain key to victory in November. There is only one candidate that will assure a victory: Hillary Rodham Clinton. She is the certain victor in November.

Ricky Martin expressed his feelings in declaring his support for Hillary. ” These elections have as much historical repercussions for the United States as for the world. In the case of presidential primary, the Latin participation will be a determining reason why we must take this opportunity to let feel our force” “Senator Clinton has always been consistent in her commitment to the needs of our community such as the education, health and the social welfare”

Advance Hillary. You are our President!

Comment by Andy | 2008-05-31 21:59:31

That ’s pretty good PaganPower!! –modulo really minor corrections ;-)
I am impressed!!

 
 

Comment by POdVet | 2008-05-31 21:33:03

Best wishes to the voters in Puerto Rico! I hope we can make the pollsters go speechless with a 40 point Hillary win. I say that only because I realize the 80 point win I’d actually hope for is unlikely :D

 

Comment by usedmeat | 2008-05-31 21:45:00

Hillary Clinton winning America one vote at a time.
No mas to hinky delegate allotment schemes designed to give segments of the population more equal representation than the rest of us.

Comment by Catriley | 2008-05-31 22:46:12

Wow, a bilingual Obama supporter. So, Hillary is a “racist whore” ??? You really do your candidate proud, but I would expect no less from you. And you actually linked to your own blog… that’s just frightening that you would actually want the world to know what a misogynist pig you are.

You don’t deserve to use the name “funkadelic”, cuz they were all about the love… not hate.

 
 

Comment by Catriley | 2008-05-31 22:41:20

Oh! Thanks for the translation futher up the thread! I have so loved seeing the videos from Puerto Rico! I would be so proud to know that the voter turnout there is the best in America! Did I see it’s usually at 80%? Wonderful enthusiasm!

I sooo hope that there will be a video somewhere of the awesome Hillary caravan. Puerto Rico knows a good thing when they see it!

Go Hillary! Go Puerto Rico!

Comment by Obama_is_Weak | 2008-05-31 22:44:38

Catriley:

It usually is b/c local politics is very passionate there. But they don’t expect that this time. They expect somewhere between 20% to 40% (500,000 voters out of 2.4 RV maybe) b/c there are not local issues on the ballot.

Still HRC has already the popular vote. Look on her site; she is claiming it already.

Comment by Catriley | 2008-05-31 22:50:14

Why would the turnout be less this time? I saw that in a news story.. do they typically vote in bigger numbers for the GE? I think that they may be surprised at the polls this time, as even though there are no local issues, the attention on PR has been unprecedented at this point in a primary. Hillary’s caravan started with 10 cars and was at 300+ and counting not too much later.

I think any wins at this point would be a bonus for Hillary. She definitely has more of the popular vote, but anything she can show the superdelegates her strength, and Obama’s weakness, is icing on the cake!

Comment by Obama_is_Weak | 2008-05-31 22:52:46

Agreed!!

I was just reporting on what I read somewhere else coming for PR papers.

Bless her !!
