Memo From Mexico, By Allan Wall

Mexicans Get The Message, Even If GOP Doesn't€”Race Is Destiny In
American Politics

"You can't tell from the MSM, but the best way to look at the recent
election is from a demographic point of view. McCain won the white vote,
but not by a big margin. At 96%, Obama carried the black vote. In both the
Asian-American vote and the Hispanic vote, Obama beat McCain 2 to 1.

Furthermore, among Latin American immigrants who voted, McCain was
shellacked. While Hispanics in general went 67-31 for Obama, among
foreign-born Latinos the margin was 78 to 22.

Yes, the future looks great for the GOP, doesn't it? Today's mass
immigration is, in essence, a Democratic Voter Importation System. It's
completely understandable that the Democrats support it. But why do
Republicans?

Nevertheless, we're already being lectured that the problem is that
Republicans didn't pander enough to Hispanics. Which is amazing when you
consider how much McCain has pandered to Hispanics throughout his
political career. And this is the thanks he received!

The demographic aspect of election '08 did not go unnoticed south of the
border. El Universal, Mexico's paper of record, ran articles entitled
Emerge Coalición de MinorÃ*as en EU [Coalition of Minorities Emerges in
the U.S.] and Cambio Demográfico Impulsó a Obama, [Demographic Change
Propelled Obama] both by Wilbert TorreEnviado, November 6, 2008.

Yeah, they get it€”even if many of our people don't.

The Mexican government, ever attentive, is gearing up for a new round of
meddling. On November 7th, Foreign minister Patricia Espinosa announced
that, upon Obama's assumption of the presidency, "Mexico will again take
up the agenda that includes the migratory accord as a priority".

As reported by El Universal:

"In a press conference, she said that President Felipe Calderon is
confident that with the arrival of Obama to the presidency of the United
States, a migratory accord that permits both nations a legal, safe and
orderly migratory flow, will finally be achieved. She also said that 'the
government of Mexico hopes that the president-elect of the United States
will change his position on the construction of the border wall'."

"According to the Foreign Minister, 'the government of Felipe Calderon
will continue proposing in a respectful but firm manner, that the border
wall is not compatible with the relation of friendship and the character
of partnership that exists between Mexico and the United States '."
[Replanteará México ante Obama Acuerdo Migratorio, El Universal, Nov.
7th 2008]

Well, that's not exactly surprising, now is it?

El Universal also ran stories highlighting people who are pinning their
hopes on Barack Obama. One was a celebrity illegal alien, Flor
Crisóstomo, a Mexican Zapotec Indian "in resistance", to whom the recent
elections "meant so much":

"Barack Obama is her hope, and [the hope] she says, of at least 12 million
'indocumentados' in that country." [EU: Migrantes en Resistencia (U.S.:
Migrants in Resistance), Carolina Rocha, El Universal, November 9, 2008]

The article explains how Flor, arrested in 2006 as an illegal alien, has
become an activist in the U.S. fighting for the rights "of the
undocumented People".

If Flor was arrested, why wasn't she deported? On the recommendation of
the Mexican consulate in Chicago, she refused to sign her deportation
order.

Neat trick that. Somebody ought to try it in Mexico!

Eventually, after being given a deportation date, Flor found her way to
the same Methodist church that sheltered the famous Elvira. There Flor
continues her high-profile activism while making jewelry to sell, and
sending money to her kids (whose dad is never mentioned) in Mexico.

Another article related the hopes of Mexican-Americans in Arizona, John
McCain's state, who voted for Obama. It quotes a lady who believes that
the Virgin of Guadalupe won it for Obama:

"The Virgin of Guadalupe performed a miracle for Bernadina Chavez, a
Mexican-American of Mesa, Arizona. Yesterday, with an enormous smile on
her face, she said she asked [it of] the image that she brought from
Mexico. She had never felt such happiness , of knowing that her candidate
Barack Obama won the presidency of the United States. "

As I reported this past summer, John "The Panderer" McCain visited the
Basilica of the Virgin of Guadalupe , apparently hoping it would win him
Mexican-American votes. Guess what?€”it didn't.

Anyway, back to Bernadina Chavez in Arizona:

"She and her family voted for Obama, seeking change for all the Hispanics
in the United States, because she has seen how in the last year her
neighbors that had work lost it, entire families have been separated due
to the raids that they carry out in Arizona, that parents are deported and
their children stay because they are Americans [that is, anchor babies],
that businesses are disappearing and that they are offended on the street
just for being of Mexican origin. 'All that is going to change now. It has
already changed today because the people went out happy to the street
because they have hope, because now we can be more secure here and those
who don't have papers can get them and they don't have to think about
returning where they came from '." [La Guadalupana nos hizo el milagro, By
Doris Gomora, El Universal, November 6, 2008]

So despite all of John McCain's eager betrayal of American sovereignty in
order to please Latinos, the candidate 1) lost the Hispanic vote by a wide
margin; 2) is not popular in Mexico; and 3) still lost the election.

Time for a change of strategy. The GOP has no choice but to adopt the
Sailer Strategy instead."
