Minority Enterprise Development Week EDITORIAL: Your vote may determine the destiny of yourself and all Hispanic - Americans

On Election Day, November 8th, crucial decisions will be made by citizens of this state through the voting process. Every election is crucial whether it be local, state or national. The value of the individual vote has been repeatedly published, whereas, one specific vote determines the outcome of an important elections in our society. Traditionally (and unfortunately), the majority of Hispanics do not exercise their right to vote! The reasons vary for lack of commitment to one of our most important civic responsibility, however, the single and most MED WEEK '94: Featured left to right: Supervisor Barbara Cram Riordan, 3rd obvious reason is the lack of understanding of the political process. dhtrict, Gil Montano, Director JNEDA, Annette King, NEDA,.Supervisor Barbara .T4ie public, as a wh^, fails to an jntcgr^ part Turoci, Vice-Chair, 1st District, Supervisor Larry Walker, 4th District. of our everyday lives.

This huge population group is important when the census bureau makes its population count every decade. This count is the determining factor for revenue appropriations on health, welfare, education and other socioeconomic financial aid to either the state or local agencies. Despite this immense population group, it is more crucial than ever for Hispanics to exercise their vote to assure that a proportion of resources are appropriated to our benefit. The political influence is precedentially exercised by organizations that lobby for their own special interest. Political action committees (PACs) role is to educate and apprise candi­ dates with Hispanic community issues that are impacting education, socio­ economic and quality of life. The PAC’s review of candidates political platform is assessed to determine compatibility with the Hispanic community needs. PAC’s, in addition, review issues that are detrimentally to the Hispanic community. The upcoming election has brought forth one of the most critical and emotional issue facing the Hispanic population, mainly Proposition 187. This racist proposal strikes at the heart of every Hispanic and persons of other nationalities who are different because of color or language. All sincere citizens with conscience and compassion should exercise their right to defeat the proposition. Let us not forget the struggles of our parents, grandparents and great- grandparents who have paid the price by their struggles, perserverance and values to become productive citizens in this great country.

INLAND EMPIRE Letter To The Editor Hispanic News Felix Diaz angered over Penman's flip-flop Political Endorsements on Prop. 187,now endorses Stout for D.A.

Letters to the Editor VOTER RECOMMENDATIONS San Bernardino County Newspapers October 25, 1994

GOVERNOR Kathleen Brown The ugly accusations and controversy in the San Bernardino County District Attorney’s race makes many of us wonder. Why do some people run for public LT. GOVERNOR Gray Davis office, knowing full well that they are not “their own person” who have intestinal fortitude enough to stand on their own two feet? Instead, they are, or become, SEC. OF STATE Tony Miller “puppets” for pressure groups. I’m referring specifically to Mr. James Penm£ui. I had a very proud, and TREASURER Phil Angelides satisfying moment on September 27, 1994 at the Victor Valley College debate between Mr. Penman and Mr. Stout. One of the questions asked, was regarding ATT'Y GENERAL Tom Umberg their stance on Prop. 187. Mr. Stout answered first, at which time he expressed the fact that the public STATE CONTROLLER would have to decide with their vote, and that he would not take a stance. Kathleen Connell However, Mr. Penman answered sternly that he was very much opposed to the proposition, and why. At this time, Mr. Penman received an ovation, which was INSURANCE COMMISSIONER Art Torres a very proud moment for me. This is due to the fact that I had such confidence,, respect, and honor for Jim, because I said, “he’s his own man.” SUPT PUBLIC INSTRUCTION Delaine Eastin Prior to this debate, I had lunch with Jim and pointedly asked him if there, was any truth or substance to the “take on the street” that he would be owned, and EQUALIZATION BD. Robert Presley controlled by the-”Good O’l Boy, Cowboy Justice Group” headed by several former public elected officials, and other “good o’l boys,” who would pull his U.S. SENATOR Dianne Feinstein strings, as has been done with other public officials? Jim told me in no uncertain terms, “I will make my own decisions, and will not be pressured into anything.” Mr. Penman’s latest mailer, in which he states that he is in favor of Prop. CONGRESS - 40TH Don Rusk 187 sure shoots his credibility all to blazes. Prior to this mailer, Mr. Penman spoke to a mutual friend, and mentioned his intentions of supporting Prop. 187 CONGRESS-41 ST Ed Tessier ^ue to pressure from his supporters (the aforementioned “Good O’l Boys, Cowboy Justice Group). CONGRESS - 42ND George Brown I want to publicly apologize to Mrs. Dennis Stout, and to the others present when she and some friends were introduced to me. I was asked who I was going CONGRESS - 43RD Mark Takano to endorse for DA? I said, “Jim Penman, because he’s better qualified.” I had continually supported, and defended Jim, prior to his “buckling.” ST. SENATE - 32ND Ruben Ayala I also want to apologize to Mr. Ralph Hernandez, city councilman from San Bernardino. I do not know, nor do I care to know about the political feuds of the City of San Bernardino, or any other city for that matter, as we in the High Desert ST. SENATE - 36TH Kay Ceniceros City Councils, also have our problems and feuds. However, I’m sorry that I defended Jim Penman to you as a person with guts, who stands for what he ASSEMBLY - 62ND Joe Baca believes in etc., etc., and did not agree to endorse Dennis Stout with other Latino Elected Officials.
