WashingtonPost: More incomplete blathering on Obama and Latinos.

"During the immigration marches back in 2006," he began, "we had a saying: 'Today we march. Tomorrow we vote.' Well, that was the time to march. And now comes the time to vote."

Everyone who writes for the Post must think all Latinos are foreigners who can't speak English and only care about immigration. The coverage has been trite and based on pat stereotypes that border on the derogatory. Newsflash to Post: 60 percent of U.S. Latinos were born in the United States. Among Latinos who can vote, the percentage is even higher.
