More details to come, and for more background information why I am excited to meet Fernando Romero is in the below Las Vegas Sun story. The story is old, because since then, I left the Republican Party for good and became a registered independent voter. There is a rise in independent voters, and it’s no wonder when you have the Republican Party who has become so “last generation.”

What started as a casual conversation among frustrated local Hispanic activists has blossomed into a national movement.

A Mexican-American political activist from Arizona on Thursday launched the National Tequila Party Movement. The kickoff began in Phoenix, ground zero for the immigration debate.

First proposed by Fernando Romero, president of the nonpartisan Nevada group Hispanics in Politics, the Tequila Party will work to encourage Latinos to vote and run for political office. Organizers will plan concerts, dinners and rallies, including in Las Vegas, to try to incite Hispanic political activism.
