in an election where RACE (and gender) have been such keystone issues its funny what DOESNT make it into the news.

but first ..what DOES make the news..CORRECTION: the headlines

Puerto Rican reggaeton star Daddy Yankee has endorsed McCain!
thats strange..

A. because Puerto Ricans ARE NOT allowed to vote in US elections
B. the enmity between Puerto Ricans in general and the US military (for which McCain is poster boy)..Vieques anyone?
and C…
because Daddy Yankee and their fans are EXACTLY the type of “immigrant filth” that Repugs normally want killed or deported.

but hey..a ride on the Straight Talk Express?

on to what ISNT in the news..while Latino corporate shills and two faced GOP operatives give reach-arounds to each other
at the top of news aggregators everywhere Cynthia McKinney and Rosa Clemente are making ACTUAL history.

For the first time in US history a ‘WOMAN of COLOR’ is running for president with a ‘WOMAN of COLOR’ as running mate no less!!

and she is half PUERTO RICAN!!

now if McCain only knew those levas in Daddy Yankee are peeking out of the closet…
strike that..the campaign would just spin it into “support” from the gay/lesbian community

go back to sleep now.
