it was a kind of puerto rican town. >> it was home. i mean, i think i would even go futher.i think it meant home, and as we were saying earlier, el museo in its growth, then now, on this corner-- fifth avenue, 104th street-- it's the best of both words. it's really the integration of the highest museum concentration in the world of the best quality of the museums going from the met, the guggenheim, the jewish museum, the design museum, the cooper-hewitt. you know, you have all of those museums lined up, and so now, the city museum of new york, which is our neighbor, and then el museo del barrio has a home from which to really propel our culture. >> hinojosa: but the truth is is that there was a long time, once el museo kind of gets off and running, that el museo del barrio was kind of seen as, you know, as that kind of arts institution up there in spanish harlem. it was not necessarily taken seriouslas a true, artic museum, per se. i mean, what... there was that kind of feeling towards el museo del barrio, right? i mean, kind of like second... second-class citizen? >> well,

puerto ricans are americans by birth. you say it's very diverse. don't have one hispanic community. there are many communities, but people feel offended by the tone, attacked in the community, and it brings people out to call on one issue, which is immigration. if the tone doesn't change, hispanics are going to go, president obama, even though he hasn't delivered on immigration reform, has over 60% of the vote. >> and george w. bush, the republican has to get somewhere up in there in the national elections, especially as the population grows. and that's why marco rubio became such an interesting player. he didn't endorse, why jeb bush stayed out of the endorsement game in florida. >> he did say that anybody -- the person who wins in florida is going to become the nominee. >> he also scolded newt gingrich. remember, there was a radio ad talking about the language of the goatghetto, he said that's a terrible ad. gingrich took it down. >> rubio has a position on immigration that many members of congress, even in california, she backed romney and said

you have a large puerto rican vote.he romney campaign will view this as a down payment of winning the latino vote. we'll move to nevada. another huge constituency there. we're beginning to get our first taste of how the republicans fare amongst the electorate that will be pivotal come november. >> and we're back. when you think about the latino vote in florida, it's important to realize you cannot paint with a broad brush. that it is a very diverse population in that state. >> it is. but this is a republican primary. it was a closed primary. so this was supposed to happen. this was expected. it doesn't mean we're going to see this repeated in other states. >> for cubans, immigration is not a huge issue. and so i think you know, you see that reflected. what we saw from mitt romney, though, is he softened his position on immigration from what we heard in iowa. he allowed that he would accept part of the dream act, for example, for the military. and he talked about self-deportation. and he -- so we heard a little bit from

i have children with disabilities that are of puerto rican heritage. one of my biggest beefs when i was in school, i had disbilts as well, and they were telling me i should do just english-only immersion. we spend billions of dollars at the expense of cutting speech pathology out of the budget. we had millions of dollars go to oregon, but none of the money went to the kids. if you want a good workforce, why would it be ok to fail my children, first-generation puerto ricans that are legal citizens of this country at the expense of the cultures of kids coming into the country illegally sni -- illegally? some kits are getting no services at the expense of kids getting services in all subjects. they are getting all that time where the child who needs the help isn't receiving it. i think we're leaving a lot of our community behind. . a so there is a genuine question of how we set priorities. we have an enormous deficit, $1.2 trillion. we have enormous debt, overed sad trillion, and we have needs, cutting balances. >> let me tell you, she brings a valid poin

puerto ricans are citizens. let me ask you to amplify what soledad was asking.c group said two things, he said it was unrealistic to deport 11 million immigrants. we need an accommodation not only for young people in the military but young people who are pursuing higher education. both very different from your candidate, mitt romney. what do you make of marco rubio moving in a different direction on those issues? >> i've always been on that side of the equation. i've always supported the dream act. i'm a co-sponsor of the dream act. there governor romney has a much more hare lined stance than i do. obviously is it a challenge? if the rhetoric gets really nasty, it becomes problematic. however, i still think that issue number one, when i'm out there speaking to the people, i don't care where in the country it is, issue number one is the economy, stumd, as clinton would say. so as long as the rhetoric doesn't get crazy, i don't think it will, i think governor romney understands it. he's a sensible man. he's a reasonable man. i think what people are looking for is

east haven well material ran his mouth again yesterday when asked about his choice to appoint a puerto rican city committee and not an ecuadorian which is the larger population and east haven material smugly said. no you don't have to come from a certain section of a country and then as if that wasn't enough of a gap material added as you know darker for you why not for you blatant racism the material has displayed twice in two weeks is frankly intolerable society and particularly in elected office in new one. sometime sure. and the very very ugly alabama state senator shadrack mcgill according to a deal the bible is quite clear that increasing teacher salaries would only lead to less qualified teachers he made this remark at a prayer meeting in which he also said the doubling teachers' salaries which are only at thirty six thousand a year now would not help education a twenty eleven report showed that alabama is we down the list when it comes to teacher pay across the nation mcgill also said that it was a factor keeping teacher pay low is a well known biblical principle mcgill of may have s

one thing that has happened in central florida is the neoplasm of the puerto rican vote.unty here in orlando has really gone democratic in the presidential races for several cycles now, and they are democratic volares primarily and that's one of the demographics that's changed in the working class vote is critical in the general election especially. i think that's where obama is going to have some real opportunities to show this middle class pitch that the democratic campaign is putting together for the president is going to work here. and he's got the tea partyers all across this area. the tea party vote, the exit polls showed two out of three of these voters say they are tea partyers, four out of 10 say strong tea partyers, if romney is winning the tate that big maybe he is pulling the conservatives together. >> it's fairly easy to manipulate tea party people, ok, we're against the bailout, ok, now let's protect the banks. what? i'm not surprised that romney has wound up possibly do thatting them. when we come back, the question is is mitt romney now over confident? we'

gutierrez: madam speaker, this next sunday, february 19, i will be joining thousands of puerto ricans in old san juan behind the banners of casa pueblo. labor unions and many others of puerto ricoo's civic society. those that demand redress from their government. in this particular instance they're demanding clear explanation of the scandals associated with the natural gas project, popularly known as gasoducto, and known as the green way. now it looks like the regime, who fired thousands of public sector employees, alleging they had no money to pay their salaries have wasted $50 million on a project that was never needed, never practical and never supported by the public, a project that many think may now be dead. it has a history of troubling insider deals and suspect relationship. mr. speaker, i pridedly march with thousands of people across the island as we make our opposition to the gasoducto clear. we will start at the capitol building and march to the governor's mansion. one of our key messages is to the federal government and specifically to the u.s. army corps of engineers. i

influence but it's very different from what it was in florida where it was predominantly cuban and puerto ricanxican. we have a lot of border issues in that state. what influence do you think that will have on the outcome? trey, i want to begin with you there. >> it's a crucial voting bloc for republicans and in general election. but today in this primary, i'm not sure how much that vote will impact the outcome today. there's no question that both candidates have been appealing to that group in arizona. i do think mitt romney has the upper hand on that front, but you're exactly right. it's two different voting segments from florida to arizona. >> kiki? >> yeah, you know, i'm from south texas so border issues and, yoor right, with mexican-americans and n. that constituency are important. border issue isn't just for the mexican-american voting constituency. it's for the community as a whole. i think trey raises a good point. when you crunch numbers, how many latino voters are going to participate in the primary today. i think that's questionable. but i think where the candidates have stood on thi

it includes, mexicans, puerto ricans and many others.the republican party. >> can we break this down? this is all about the numbers. >> break it down, michael. >> this is about the reality that in five short years and significant corners of this country, we will be a majority, minority population with hispanics, coupled with african-americans and asians, really controlling the ballot boxes of some key states, california is the least of them in terms of where the numbers are going. my home state of maryland, you're seeing a burgeoning growth. in the midwest, the south. spanish are anchoring and calling these places home. they're no longer hunkered down in major metropolitan centers around the country as they once were. the reality for the gop, i think, really came home in 2008, but even before then, george bush was on to something in his conversation with the hispanic community and there were those in the party who say, time-out, we're not having that conversation. the fact of the matter is, you need to look the at numbers and see the tre
