This book is not about unregistered immigrants, amnesty, the border, or any political policy concerning these issues. For the sake of clarity and continuity, all individuals of Spanish, Portuguese, Mexican, Central American, South American, Cuban, and Puerto Rican descent shall hereafter be referred to as “Hispanics.” United States citizens who are originally from these nations and continents, or those whose ancestry descends from them, shall hereafter be referred to as “Hispanic Americans” regardless of color, race, or creed. (The term “Hispanic” was chosen over the term “Latino” as all sources cited agreed on the meaning of “Hispanic” but disagreed greatly on the meaning of “Latino.” The term “Chicano” has been rejected for use because of its origin as a word to describe Hispanic gang members and criminals, first coined by members of gangs such as the Pachucos of the mid 1930s; is considered to be a disparaging label to many groups, and is even considered to be vulgar in some circles. For the purposes of this study, the predominant European Caucasian culture of our society will be referred to as “Anglo American.” Any attempt to read racism, ethnic hatred, or disparagement of any kind to any individual, group, ethnicity, culture, or race into this study, will be solely on the part of the reader, and not the author. This book is also offered with the understanding that neither the author nor the publishers are rendering legal or professional service. It is not the purpose of this book to give legal advice, and there are no guarantees of any kind herein. Every effort has been made to make this book as accurate as possible. However, there could be mistakes, both typographical and in content. Therefore this book should only be used as a general guide, and not as an ultimate source of information. The authors and publishers shall have neither liability nor responsibility to any person or entity with respect to any loss or damage caused or alleged to be caused directly or indirectly, by the information contained in this book. If you do not wish to be bound by the above, you may return this book to the publisher with the proof of purchase for a full refund. 5 Why We Must Win the Hispanic Vote “Hispanics have become a powerful demographic force. The time has come to recognize that they are here to stay.” Herman Badillo 1 I used to say Republicans should reach out toward everyone exactly the same way; without taking any notice of their age, gender, or ethnicity, and I sounded really good when I said it. The problem of course is that the idea that everyone should be approached as if they were all the same is merely a politically correct idea, and it’s wrong, and it’s wrongheaded. Everyone is created equal, but everyone responds to different stimuli. One would neither approach a seventy year old man with a lollipop, nor a six year old with a bottle of scotch. The same common sense can be applied to winning votes. Approaching individuals based upon those things that would be easiest for them to understand and most appealing to their way of thinking and manner of interpreting issues is simply smart. What’s more, dealing with voters on an individual level, one at a time, would be the very best way to reach them, since any approach could be tailor made to their personal background, tastes, and ideas. However, the resources simply do not exist for the Republican Party to approach every person on an individual level. (Even the Dems can’t do that.) What we can do, is be far more proactive in adapting our approach to those different groups that share certain commonalities within themselves. Now, we already do this to a certain extent. We have many Republican Clubs based on gender, age, and ethnicity, such as the Young Republicans, The Republican Women’s Federation, and The National Black Republican Association. However, it’s time to increase our outreach to Hispanic American Voters and learn to become far more effective at winning them. Why

  • Education Spending Up, Performance Stagnant
    Insight Education Spending Up, Performance Stagnant PAUL GESSING | MARCH 1, 2011 During her campaign, Gov. Susana Martinez said that she would not cut education. Based on revised budget numbers that were released immediately after she was elected, that went out the window. Now, Martinez is proposing very modest cuts of 1.5 percent for K-12. It didn’t take long for the unions and other supporters of more spending to draw lines in the sand. Albuquerque Federation of Teachers president Ellen Bernstein said “education can’t take any more cuts,” while Dr. Jose Armas of the Latino/Hispano Education Improvement Task Force recently wrote “Let’s dispel the myth that we’re throwing money at education. New Mexico has been steadily cutting education budgets for decades.” Instead of being “cut to the bone,” however, New Mexico’s K-12 system has seen funding rise dramatically for the better part of two decades. A new study, “K-12 Spending in New Mexico: More Money, Few Results,” which relies on data from the United States Census Bureau’s annual “Public Education Finances” report, clearly shows that K-12 spending per-pupil has risen far-faster than the rate of inflation since the late 1990s. Back during the 1994-1995 school year, New Mexico schools spent $4,100 per pupil annually. Quickly, that number started to rise at a rate that was far faster than inflation with both Gary Johnson and Bill Richardson approving ever-growing education budgets. By the 2007-2008 school year, the last year available, New Mexico was spending $9,068 per year, per-pupil, according to the Census.

Susana Martinez: Living the American Dream History was made when Susana Martinez (’86) was | BY JONELLA FRANK | sworn in January 1, 2011, as New Mexico’s first female governor and the country’s first Latina governor. Just weeks later, her name was being mentioned as a possible 2012 Republican vice presidential candidate. It is “humbling” to be named as a possible contender for the second-highest office in the UnitedS tates, she said, but she’s not interested in that job. She is too focused on serving New Mexico. Martinez was born July 14, 1959, in El Paso, Texas, the youngest of three children of Paula and Jacobo Martinez. She grew up there, graduating in 1977 from Riverside High School, where she served as student body president.

Las Latinas han ingresado con fuerza en las empresas de los Estados Unidos y Puerto Rico. Se calcula que entre el 2002 al 2012, el número de trabajadoras Latinas crecerá en 2.8 millones, llegando a representar el 28.8 por ciento del total de las mujeres trabajadoras en Estados Unidos. Estos datos dejan atrás el cuadro de la mujer latina ama de casa y separada de la fuerza laboral. Recientemente, en diferentes actividades de la Comisión Nacional, a través de la nación les hablé sobre el impacto fundamental que representa la Latina en la economía estadounidense, y la contribución significativa de las trabajadoras latinas no sólo a nivel del crecimiento financiero y la seguridad de sus hogares, sino a nivel de la economía nacional.
