"As farmworkers and laborers across America continue to struggle for fair treatment and fair wages, we find strength in what Cesar Chavez accomplished so many years ago,'' Obama said in a statement from his campaign. "And we should honor him for what he's taught us about making America a stronger, more just, and more prosperous nation.
"That's why I support the call to make Cesar Chavez's birthday a national holiday. It's time to recognize the contributions of this American icon to the ongoing efforts to perfect our union."
This idiotic statement can only hurt Obama in his primary battle with Hillary.
- Q. What percentage of Democratic primary voters in Pennsylvania will be Hispanic?
- A. A lot smaller percentage than the non-Hispanic working class voters who are afraid of losing their jobs to cheap immigrant labor.
