Again, Obama received 93% of the black vote, and 73% of the Asian. Both groups voted at a higher percentage than Hispanics, and without their votes he could not have been elected. Yet, somehow the Latino vote reigns supreme. I am still waiting for someone to explain why he "owes" them something that he does not owe others.

If you don't understand the Tavis Smiley commentary and the related comments, nothing I say will make sense. Just leave it alone.

I wasn't trying to be difficult. I honestly thought you knew how to quote individual sections. As you can see, when you quote within another poster's comment, they don't appear when that poster responds. Try the following steps and see what happens.

Step 1: Highlight and click "copy" where you see "Quote=Benicar...." It will begin with "[" and end with "]"

Step 2: Place the cursor at the beginning of the section you want to quote.

Step 3: Click "paste" and you will then see

Step 4: Highlight and click "copy" over the "end quote" it begins with "[/" and ends with "]" and place that at the end of the section you are quoting.

I hope this helps.
Hey, I wrote a reply and when I submitted it it got erased because I the internet went off line. I will reply later but at least I want to say thanks for the instructions. I need to see my 25 daughter dance in a Mexican folk show. Take care.

You're welcome. Also, if you want to quote several sections from a post, after you highlight and copy the beginning (Quote=Benicar), paste that at the beginning of each section you want to quote. Then highlight and copy the end quote and paste it at the end of each quoted section.

Enjoy the show.

Hispanics should have the same expectations as other Americans: a better economy, fairer tax laws, action on global warming, a fight againsts religious fanaticism. They should not expect that Americans will invite low skilled, badly educated hispanics who do not speak English here in the middle of a recession and give them access to our tax dollars just because they are hispanic.

Hispanic leaders who believe otherwise are selfish racists who should do Americans a favor and move to a majority hispanic country.
