Why is the pro life hypocrite Senator Marco Rubio taking DREAM Act marching orders from the likes of the John Tanton network?  John Tanton was the organizer and President of the Northern Michigan Planned Parenthood Association.  John Tanton not only funds abortion clinics across the globe, John Tanton also has an axe to grind against Catholicism.  It’s no wonder Tanton loathes the Catholic church (many Latinos are members of the Catholic Church) because the Pope of Rome is an avid pro life messenger.

From Journalist Pilar Marrero:

Marco Rubio’s Dream Act: Brought to You by the Same Folks who Invented “Self-Deportation”

… In other words, Rubio opposes offering the youngsters, many of whom are already graduate and post graduate students, the kind of status that would allow them to eventually sponsor immediate family members, much like Rubio’s parents in Cuba were sponsored by his auntie in Florida back in 1956, before Fidel Castro came to power. …  The concept of keeping citizenship out of reach for legalized immigrants it’s actually the brainchild of the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) a research organization that is part of the same lobbying group that pushed the “attrition thru enforcement” concept and the legal push behind the local and state anti immigration laws such as SB1070, the Arizona Law, that will soon be argued in front of the Supreme Court. CIS, FAIR and the Immigration Reform Law Institute are all part of the same network of organizations in Washington that want to limit not illegal, but LEGAL immigration.

Who is behind these unconstitutional laws?

The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) is an anti-immigration ‘movement,’ that began by one man, John Tanton. Tanton was the organizer and President of the Northern Michigan Planned Parenthood Association between 1965-1971, and in 1975 he wrote The Case for Passive Eugenics where his letters and memos are a public collection at the Bentley Historical Library.  (1) Tanton has clear connections to Pioneer Fund and Numbers USA where  Pioneer Fund’s eugenic ideas (selective breeding of humans)  supported a variety of institutions that legitimize race “science”, including the journal Mankind Quarterly, which today is published by long-time eugenicist, anti-Semite and Pioneer grant recipient Roger Pearson. (2) According to the Wall Street Journal, Jason Riley states that by Dr. Tanton’s own reckoning, FAIR has received more than $1.5 million from the Pioneer Fund, a white-supremacist outfit devoted to racial purity through eugenics. Board members of FAIR actively promote the sterilization of Third World women for the purposes of reducing U.S. immigration prospects. And if anything disturbs the good doctor more than those Latin American hordes crossing the Rio Grande, it’s the likelihood that most of them are Catholic, or so he once told a Reuters reporter. (3)  As the founder and publisher of Social Contract Press, Tanton has published books that have helped shaped a nationalist ideology focused on the threat of immigrants to the white…while ignoring research that points to the positive contributions of immigrants. (4)

…..

FAIR and Kris Kobach are not “conservative”

FAIR purports to be “conservative” but its founder and some of its board members have been deeply involved with Planned Parenthood for decades.  In fact, FAIR is a contributor to Planned Parenthood that openly provides for abortions in minority communities across the nation.  Furthermore, FAIR has no respect for states’ rights as they seek to impose unconstitutional laws on states and strain their budgets defending indefensible laws.

Conclusion

FAIR and Kris Kobach have needlessly cost taxpayers in states and small communities across the nation millions of dollars.  They do not support the Constitution.  They are not Pro-Life.  They are not conservative.  There is a better way, a constitutional way, and we, at Somos Republicans, are leading the way.  Bills written by FAIR are both unconstitutional and costly — There is a better way!

Human beings (via undocumented immigrants) are being trampled on within the Heartland of America.

Where is the National Right to Life’s HARSH STATEMENT against Gov. Dave Heineman and the Nebraska Senators who voted against prenatal care bill LB 599?  This is the time to step in and advocate for undocumented women who need prenatal care.

Gov. Dave Heineman vows to VETO prenatal care bill, LB-599 (a bill that offers prenatal care to undocumented women), and the below Nebraska senators voted against offering prenatal care to the undocumented women:

Senators Bloomfield, Hansen, Langemeier, Pirsch, Brasch, Heidemann, Lautenbaugh, Price, Fischer, Janssen, McCoy, Schilz, Fulton, Lambert, Nelson, and Smith.

We would like to see a statement from the Nebraska Right to Life and the the National Right to Life stating their role in support of LIFE and undocumented human beings via prenatal care and harsh words against the Nebraska Governor.   We saw them issue a statement that abandoned Sen. Ben Nelson and it is time for us to see them abandon Gov. Dave Heineman, too.

Nebraska Right to Life OKs Dave Heineman, abandons Ben Nelson

We believe Heineman is receiving pressure from the John Tanton Network.  John Tanton is a man who was behind the Michigan Abortion Clinic and he is an anti-immigrant crusader who helped hijack the Republican Party.

In the memos, Tanton, sounding much like the Klan of the 1920s, expressed concerns over the role of the Catholic Church in the United States, a favorite topic of his. He worried that the Church would capitalize on the Catholic faith of Latino immigrants to exert more political influence in the U.S. Specifically, he thought the church would try to subvert the division between church and state and limit abortion and birth control.

If the National Right to Life does not abandon Heineman the same way they abandoned Ben Nelson, their silence and lack of leadership will speak volumes. We are witnessing the fabric of the GOP become unraveled.  We are seeing a man via Mitt Romney who promised to protect a woman’s right to choose head towards being the GOP nominee.  We are witnessing the pro life movement die before our very eyes if Mitt Romney becomes the GOP primary winner due to his oath on a woman’s right to choose.

SOMOS REPUBLICANS believe without strong conviction for LIFE, there is no power.

You Can’t Be Pro-Life and Anti-Immigrant

Right to Life Organization supported politicians like Gov. Heineman do not seem to believe all babies are created equal in order to receive prenatal care.

Marco Rubio Says The Dream Act Will Encourage Illegal ‘Chain Migration’ (VIDEO) however, we note that Senator Rubio’s father, mother and brother entered the United States upon the invitation of a relative, what he has called:  “chain migration”.   Thereafter, they all enjoyed the benefits of the Cuban Adjustment Act.    Today, if a Cuban national crosses the U.S. Mexican border illegally, a year after such entrance pursuant to this generous act, he/she can become a legal permanent resident.    Many individuals would call that “amnesty”.

Hispanic Republicans to Newt Gingrich:  Stay in the Race

For Immediate release

info@somosrepublicans.com

Pueblo, CO  –  We believe Newt Gingrich should stay in the Republican primary race amidst calls from few Republicans who want him to withdraw.

Why are these few asking Newt Gingrich to withdraw from the race when Ron Paul has the least amount of delegates?  We believe Newt Gingrich is on the right path.  In fact, a poll shows Santorum and Gingrich work better together at blocking and bleeding out Mitt Romney. Somos Republicans never supported RomneyCare modeled after ObamaCare and it is imperative for a true conservative to win the Republican nominee.

Furthermore, both Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum will never be able to receive double digit Latino voting support during the 2012 general elections in our post harsh anti-immigrant law era when several draconian laws were introduced by state Republican legislators since 2010.  Somos Republicans is the largest and was the only Hispanic Republican Grassroots organization in the nation that stood tall and defended Latinos and immigrant rights when Arizona’s Governor signed anti-immigrant SB 1070 bill.

George W. Bush managed to win his presidency when 44% Latinos voted for him, and the Republican Party cannot win a Presidential election without Latino support; therefore, we believe it is imperative for Newt Gingrich to see this primary fight all the way through for the sake of the GOP.

SOMOS REPUBLICANS, largest Hispanic Republican group in nation and based in Arizona endorsed Newt Gingrich and we have just received this information today:

Dear Friend,

I have some breaking news to share: The latest polls show that Newt is in first place in both Alabama and Mississippi!

In Alabama he holds a one point lead with 30% and in Mississippi he holds a four point lead with 35%. While we’re excited Newt is leading the pack, the race is still extremely tight and every vote will count.

Both Alabama and Mississippi go to the polls next Tuesday, and we are taking nothing for granted. Newt is aggressively campaigning across both states right now and our grassroots volunteers are hard at work reaching out to undecided voters.

As Newt travels both states, it’s clear his message of $2.50 gasoline is resonating and voters are responding to his bold leadership that has put President Obama on the defensive over his failed policies.

Now more than ever we need a quick infusion of donations to help spread Newt’s message just days before voters go to the ballot box. Can you chip in $25, $50, $100 or more right now to help Newt win Alabama and Mississippi?

Newt has the momentum at just the right time, and your generous donation today will go a long way towards boosting our voter turnout effort in Alabama and Mississippi.

Thank you,

Michael Krull
Campaign Manager
Newt 2012

P.S. New polls in Alabama and Mississippi show Newt in first place by a close margin, so every vote will count. Please make a generous donation today to help us maximize our voter turnout effort on Election Day.

It is interesting to several of us how Republicans are for Mitt Romney — the same Republicans who loathe ObamaCare.  How can Republicans claim to be against “socialized medicine” when they are voting for RomneyCare?  Hypocrisy at it’s best.  See below story by Jonathan Chait.

How Romney Advocated Obamacare and Lied About It

• By Jonathan Chait

Pay no attention to the plan behind the curtain!

Somos Republicans is headquartered and was founded in Arizona (immigration ground zero), and is the largest grassroots Latino Repubilcan organization in the nation.  It was the only Republican group in the nation that stood up against SB 1070 when Gov. Brewer signed that bill and this is why and how SOMOS grew so fast and large.

We have learned that Rick Santorum is schmoozing up to Joe Arpaio and in fact met with him today.  Mitt Romney also made this mistake when he schmoosed up to Arpaio in 2008 when he ran against Sen. John McCain and look where that ended for Romney.

Largest Latino Republican Group Blasts Rick Santorum

Phoenix, AZ —  Recently 2012 Republican Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney stated he will veto the DREAM Act, therefore, SOMOS REPUBLICANS (largest Hispanic Republicans grassroots organization) will veto Romney at the polls for receiving a “nativist and extremist” Republican endorsement via Kris Kobach of Kansas.  Now it appears Rick Santorum met with another nativist and extremist Republican today via Sheriff Joe Arpaio.  Santorum will be the fourth 2012 GOP presidential candidate to talk or meet with Arpaio — and the other three are not even in the race anymore.

We are warning the 2012 Republican Candidates that extremism and nativism does not pay and this should be indicative when Mitt Romney received Joe Arpaio’s endorsement in 2008 and lost against Senator John McCain during the 2008 Presidential primaries.

Joe Arpaio has a strong challenger in 2012 via Lt. Mike Stauffer whom we predict will beat nativist Arpaio due to Arpaio wasting millions of dollars in tax payer monies.

According to the New York Times:

“The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office, known for efforts against illegal immigrants, inappropriately spent $99 million from two jail funds over the past eight years to pay for other law enforcement operations, including immigration patrols, county budget officials said.”

According to the New York Times:

“Sheriff Arpaio….. his department’s approach to more than 400 sex-crimes cases that has Sheriff Arpaio in trouble.   His deputies failed to investigate or conducted only the sketchiest of inquiries into hundreds of sex crimes between 2005 and 2007, investigations by Arizona law enforcement agencies have shown. Many of those cases involved molested children.”

According to Latino FOX News:

“The office of controversial Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio….. has committed a wide range of civil rights violations against Latinos, according to a report by the U.S. Department of Justice.  The report, which includes findings from a three-year investigation by the federal agency, says the Arizona sheriff’s office engaged in a pattern of racial profiling and discrimination, and carried out heavy-handed immigration patrols based on racially charged citizen complaints.”

Finally, we are absolutely horrified with the way Arpaio’s officer treated a fellow Latino Veteran and United States Citizens in his prison.  Video shows Joe Arpaio’s Officer used taser on our fellow Latino veteran who ultimately died later.

Somos Republicans is the largest Hispanic Republican Group in the Nation that grew exponentially due to our pro legal immigration views.  Somos Republicans is also headquartered out of Arizona — Immigration Ground Zero.  The largest Spanish media outlet — UNIVISION has a story on Latino members who are not in support of Mitt Romney due to his harsh anti-immigrant views and alignment with white nationalists via John Tanton’s network and FAIR when Romeny decided to seek Kris Kobach’s advice.  Mitt Romney also has Pete Wilson’s (extremist) endorsement.

Romney’s immigration stance puts off some Latino Mormons

Latinos make up only a small portion of Mormons in the U.S., but they’ve split with many of their co-religionists over Mitt Romney’s immigration stance. (Flickr: More Good Foundation).

By MATTHEW JAFFE
Channel: Politics

………….

And the country’s largest Latino Republican group – Somos Republicans – said they would oppose Romney due to his immigration policies, deciding to back rival Newt Gingrich instead. What makes the opposition to Romney of some Latino Mormons different is that their disapproval of his immigration stance stems not from business or professional reasons, but rather from religious ones.

According to the Associated Press’ Russell Contreras, some Latino Mormons such as Honduran-born Antonella Cecilia Packard believe Romney has betrayed a basic Mormon belief of protecting immigrants.

“A lot of us aren’t supporting him because of his stance against immigrants,” she told Contreras.

Latino Mormons, the AP story noted, cite immigration stories in the Book of Mormon and some recent statements by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints against various policies that target immigrants. In addition, per the AP, they see Romney as a hypocrite because his own great-grandfather Miles fled to Mexico after an anti-polygamist law was passed in 1882.

Read entire story here.

Somos Republicans, the largest Hispanic Republican grassroots and immigrant friendly organization in the nation is issuing an action alert.  SOMOS is based in Arizona — immigration ground zero and has been fighting protectionist laws against immigrants since Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer signed SB 1070.

Arizona-based Latino group issuing the below action alert for members:

Call Gov. Brian Sandoval and support most immigrant friendly 2012 GOP Candidate for Republican Primary Elections — Newt Gingrich

Action Alert:  Call Brian Sandoval and tell him to come back to the
conservative Reaganite tent. Tell him that there is no window for Latino
immigrants to become documented, however this country, democrats and
republicans opended wihdows and doors for them to come and work, without
creating a dignified status for them.In the spirit of Reagan, and of the
president that nominated him for the bench, George Bush, we call on him
to support Newt Gingrich for president.

In the spirit of Reagan, and of the president that nominated him for the
bench, we call on him to support immigration reform.Brian Sandoval is
the governor of Nevada, and as Mexican American. We are proud to see and
prove to the rest of America what we are capable of. However, it is
painful to see that he has turned his back to the suffering and the
realities of the people he should understand the most, and who share his
heritage. Gov. Sandoval supported the anti-immigrant Arizona law, which
in addition to marginalize undocumented immigrants, it also makes the
lives of Latinos be considered at the margins of America, curtailing
their opportunities to fulfill their potential.  In sum, Gov. Sandoval
supported a law that makes us second class citizens.  We call on Gov.
Sandoval to come back to the Mexican American and mainstream Latino
tent: we welcome him with open arms to help America understand that as
the largest minority, we are the pillars on which the future of this
country will be built, and if our children don’t have the right
opportunities, those pillars will not be strong enough.  America will be
strong if Latinos are strong.

Call Brian Sandoval at  the State Capitol: Phone: (775) 684-5670

or e-mail him through the governor’s website at:

SOMOS REPUBLICANS is and Arizona-based and largest Hispanic Republican grassroots organization in the nation.  Here is our response with regard to Florida.  Mitt Romney may be able to outspend Newt Gingrich 4 to 1, but Romney will not be able to outspend Obama with regard to Obama’s war chest.  That’s the reality.

FLORIDA 2012 PRIMARY ELECTION STATEMENT

We were hoping our Cuban American and Puerto Rican brothers would disregard their leadership lead to support anti-immigrant Mitt Romney. The Florida primary results show the total disregard a good majority of Cuban Americans have for conservative Mexican Americans, South Americans, and Central Americans who aspire, like Cuban Americans, to be an integral part of this country. This vote shows the lack of solidarity with the majority of Latinos, even while Cuban Americans and Puerto Rican serve themselves with the big spoon when it is time to distribute the political and economic/business opportunities/leverage generated by the critical mass of Latinos, mainly Mexican Americans (65%), but also Central Americans and South Americans. These latter don’t have the same opportunities of citizenship that Cuban Americans and Puerto Ricans enjoy, and thus, in general, Cuban American put aside the priorities of the majority of Latinos. For a long time we have put the Latino agenda in the hands of Cuban Americans, and look where we are. It has been a tremendous disaster; we could not be more despised and disadvantaged in this country, in spite of our numbers and great contributions.

The overwhelming vote of Cuban Americans and Puerto Ricans for anti-Latino immigrant Mitt Romney should open the eyes of conservative Latino Republicans not belonging to the Cuban and Puerto Rican communities, to the fact that we do not count on their support for our political, economic/business agenda, and thus, they should not count on us, except on a previously negotiated basis on which we, Mexican Americans, hold our votes and power in the hands of our own leadership. For this, we must accelerate the pace to build this Mexican American leadership that this major ethnic group needs to hold to represent the interests of its constituency within the Republican party. No more leaving our issues in the hands of other “Latinos”. If the Republican Party wants the votes of the largest Latino Group, Mexican Americans, and its brothers Central and South Americans, they will need to negotiate with us, not with Cuban or Puerto Rican Americans. In Light of the Cuban American leadership support for anti Latino immigrant Mitt Romney (“illegal immigrant” is a code word for Latino immigrants, and Cuban Americans fool themselves if they think the Latino haters do not put us all in the same basket – as as small sample, you just had to hear the expressions of disgust within the Georgia Republican party when Mel Martinez was head of the RNC; Latino students at GA state reported that a professor coming from Florida said in class, in front of all the students, that Miami was a third world country infested with Cubans).

We welcome the friendship and brotherhood of those few Cubans and Puerto Ricans who embrace us, and who will accept our rightful leadership role. The Republican Party should know, and we will make it evident through our organization and future coalitions, that we will not align with Cuban Americans and Puerto Ricans any longer, except when there are clear mutual interests, and that Mexican Americans no longer consider themselves represented within the party by Cuban Americans and Puerto Ricans. If the Republican Party wants the Mexican American community’s support, the by far largest Latino group, they need to have one of us, Mexican American.

Republicans must acknowledge that if Mexican Americans are marginalized, we will not fulfill our potential as a key pillar to America’s economic and political future in the world. America will be poor if Mexican Americans are poor and powerless. We will not allow this. To the innuendo and racist rhetoric through the construction of code-alkaloid language such as “illegals” and “Anchor babies”, we will respond with harder work, greater love for this country, and greater organization. We will not give up the Republican Party because these are our values, but we will support only those who embrace us. We will identify and clearly explain to Republicans that they have substituted Republican values for hate, and that the “hate coalition” which has taken over the party uses hate to hide and distract from the fact that they are big spenders, big government, big brother policy. They use a minor civil violation to dehumanize “some” immigrants. Those who call themselves Reaganites do not belong in the immigrant hate coalition. We Mexican Americans are more than willing to work hard to contribute to build the bright future of this country, and warmly embrace all of those who embrace us. Likewise, we will be well aware of those who do not.
