Hillary reaches out to small Latino Communities in TX

Newspapers across Texas are emphasizing the importance of the Latino vote in this primary election. According to the Dallas News today Sen. Clinton is doing a great job of reaching out to our community and has continued to address our issues which will ultimately make a large impact in TX. Lionel Sosa, a marking executive contends that Hispanics are brand loyal. Latinos need personal contact in order to sell any product or candidate. While Obama goes to large urban areas to attract greater numbers, Hillary focuses on smaller cities along the Texas-Mexico border in order to make personal connections with the voters. Sosa doesn't believe Obama is making a bond with Latinos which is making Hillary the front runner.

Hillary also has Dolores Huerta, co founder of United Farm Workers on her side. Ms. Huerta first met Mrs. Clinton shortly after President Clinton took office in 1993 and Mrs. Clinton invited about a dozen "women of color" to visit the White House. This weekend she urged Latinos last week to vote for Hillary.
