HISPANIC LINK NEWS SERVICE
There is growing doubt today
whether our political system is able
to deal with the realities that confront
us and significantly impact our futures. U.S. voters were uneasy with
the two presidential candidates they
had before them. The turnout, lower
than in 2008, reflects this disconnect.
In the country where newscasts
and networks speak daily about democracy and its greatness and candidates are compelled to wear a U.S.
flag pin on their lapels, 93 million eligible citizens did not vote: 57.5 percent of all eligible voters turned out
this month, compared with 62.3 percent in 2008 and 60.4 percent in 2004.
I have been involved in Latino politics and public policy since 1975. I
have participated in, and observed,
national elections since 1976. I have
been through the “sleeping giant”
claims about Latino political power,
the so- called “Decade of the Hispanic” in the 1980s, the steady
ascendance to elected office by
Latinos in the 1990s, and the recognition that both political parties are
committed to the attainment and
maintenance of power at the expense
of Latinos.
Throughout this time, the liberal
and conservative media controlled
and set the narrative for Latino political growth. We were talked about
and analyzed but seldom were we part
of that discussion on NBC, CBS,
ABC, CNN, Fox, CSPAN or
MSNBC.
Now, for the very first time, I believe Latino voters have arrived at a
point where we can claim political
power. The role we played in the election outcomes in key swing states of
Nevada, Colorado and Florida are
proof that we have arrived. The facts
allow me to reach that conclusion.
We went out and voted probably for
the lesser of two damaged products.
While our turnout efficiency was
less in 2012 (78 percent) than in 2008
(84 percent), we now comprise 10
percent of the national electorate.
This is consistent with the constant
increase since 2004 at 8 percent and
2008 at 9 percent. Nationally, as demonstrated in these three key states,
Latinos made up a growing share of
voters.
We have spent better than four decades working to get to this position.
Many of our political mentors have
been in the Democratic and Republican parties. We have run for office
on the platform that to be fair and
democratic, politics needs more
Latinos. Seldom have we pressed
political visions of specific policies we
would introduce to remedy the problems we have talked about for the last
40 years. I believe we have not prepared to get to this point. We spent
entirely too much time talking about
our desire to get here.
Now that we have arrived, what
will we do?
Think about it. We have three
Latinos in the U.S. Senate, all of Cuban heritage. One each from Florida
and New Jersey and now one born
in Canada representing Texas. We
have 28 in the House of Representa(see Latinos, page 8 )
Throughout the years he’s been a
DJ at Magic 92.5 FM. Xavier The
X-Man said he’s been able to see first
hand how generous his audience can
be.
For the past decade, thanks to that
generosity, he’s organized his now
traditional Xavier The X-Man’s Annual Toy Drive, where every year
members of his audience throughout
San Diego bring a new toy for a
needy child, who, otherwise, might not
get a Christmas gift.
This year’s toy drive will be on Saturday, Dec. 1, from 9 a.m. to noon at
Luzitas Taco Shop, located at 60 E. J
St., right next to Hilltop Middle School,
in Chula Vista.
The X-Man, whose show on Magic
92.5 is a classic in San Diego thanks
to its selection of oldies, said that he
uses whatever popularity he might
enjoy to bring light to a good cause.
“I want to help children in need. I
am blessed to be behind a microphone
on the radio where I can bring the
attention to help those in need,”
Xavier The X-Man said. “This is my
opportunity to give back to a community that has given me so much.”
Each year, the number of people
who donate a new toy varies, but it
can be up to 200, he said. Those who
bring a toy will enjoy a free bowl of
menudo.
In addition to helping needy children, donors will also enjoy musica
featuring DJ Wicho on the turntables,
will be able to take a picture with
Santa from Impalas Car Club, and see
an array of cool low riders in a great
classic car exhibition.
In fact, The X-Man said that the
low-rider community of San Diego is
very involved in the toy drive, and car
aficionados make a majority of toy
donors.
“People from all backgrounds do-

nate toys, but most of them are car
owners,” he said.
Xavier The X-Man said he understands that many in our community
are struggling, and even buying a toy
can be a hardship.
“But our people find it within their
hearts to buy that toy, and bring it here
for a child that is even in greater
need,” he said. “That is proof that my
audience is great, that they have a
big heart.”

Toys collected this year will be
given to two community organizations, one of them being the Emilio
Nares Foundation, which helps children with cancer.

The X-Man ha podido ver de primera
mano que tan generoso puede ser su
auditorio.
Por la última década, gracias a esa
generosidad, ha organizado su ya

Toy Drive, una colecta de juguetes
donde cada año miembros de su
auditorio por todo San Diego donan
un juguete nuevo para un niño
necesitado, que, de otra manera, quizá
no reciba un regalo de Navidad.
La colecta de juguetes de este año
será el sábado 1 de diciembre de 9

Rosemead’s Laura Salazar,
championship Mixed Martial
Arts fighter, wins gold in
Greece.
“Lethal” Laura Salazar
This past weekend (Nov
16-18) , martial artists from all
around the world converged in
Sparta in Greece for an epic
contest of strength, skill and
warrior spirit known as the
world Pankration championships. PANKRATION (translates to “All Powers”) is a
World Heritage MARTIAL
ART, with the unique distinction of being the only martial
sport in existence today that
can legitimately trace its roots
to the Ancient Olympic Games
from 648 BC to 393 AD. and
has a recorded history spanning well back to over 3,000
years.
The three-day event brought
together Mixed Martial Arts
athletes from Greece (which
is the birthplace of Pankration),
Italy, Russia, Ukraine, Canada,
Australia, Kazakhstan, Cameroon, USA and countless other
countries to participate in a
true demonstration of the
Olympic spirit from which
Pankration originally emerged.
Representing team USA
was a fierce competitor, Laura
Salazar. The aptly named “Lethal” Laura entered this event
with a tremendous amount of
momentum, having won the
2011 World Super Grand’s, the
OC Open Martial Arts Championships, the prestigious Long
Beach International tournament and the US National
Pankration Championships.
This young Latina hails from
Rosemead and has only been
involved in martial arts for 15
months. On the advice of a
friend she joined the UFC Gym
in order to lose weight and get
fit. After being a member for
three months she decided to
try a Muay Thai class because
she heard that it was fun.

Deportation to Shattered DREAMs: Friendship Has No Borders
By Nancy Landa
MundoCitizen
(Editor’s note: DREAMer
Nancy Landa’s first-hand experience of removal proceedings by US Citizens and Immigration Services (USCIS))
I set foot on American soil
as I got off the bus which had
arrived at the San YsidroTijuana border. U.S. Immigration officers were standing
ready to hand over to each of
us a small brown bag tagged
with a label imprinted with our
names. When I opened mine,
I notice that it contained my belongings I had with me when
detained: my purse with just a
cell phone and a small amount
of cash I was carrying for the
day.
I was then escorted by the
U.S. agent to a gate where a
Mexican immigration officer
was waiting. He asked me a
few questions to verify if I was
Mexican. But with no ID to
prove I was one and with a
spoken Spanish that seemed to
be foreign, I was concerned
the immigration officer would
doubt my nationality.
I was now only a deportee
with no identity. I tried to keep
myself calm as I answered
each question. After with-
standing the suspicious stare of
the officer, he decided to let me
pass.
It was past 8 pm and I was
on my own. With no time to
reflect that it was my last moment on the side of the border
that had been home to me for
almost 20 years, I walked toward the first revolving door
that welcomed me to Mexico.
But unlike most tourists that
pass through these gates on a
daily basis, perhaps with a
sense of exploration of what
they expect to be a sightseeing
adventure, I was beginning a
fight for survival in unknown
territory, with no family or
friends living here whom I
could call for help. I began to
doubt whether I could endure
the danger that was present in
a town recently plagued by an
outbreak of violence.
I continued to walk down
the corridor and noticed about
50 meters away was a second
gate which I presumed was
signaling the end of this transitory space. I was not yet ready
to cross this gate, as I felt
somewhat protected here. I
needed some time to figure out
where to go next.
I noticed that some of the
deportees that were on the
same bus with me were forming a line at a small bungalow
closer to the first gate I had
exited. The sign above the entrance read Grupo Beta. After a brief conversation with
some of the people waiting in
line, I learned that this organization provides protection to
migrants. One of their services
available was a free phone call
for each deportee so they could
reach their family members.
As I get in line, I remembered I was carrying my cell
phone but was unsure if I could
use it for calls. I then make a
test phone call to one of my
friends, and to my surprise it
goes through!
In a brief conversation, she
informed me that three of my
friends were driving to Tijuana
to find me and ensure I was in
a safe place to stay.
At that very moment, I realized one thing: Friendship
Has No Borders.
Despite having a physical
wall separating me indefinitely
from the world I had known,
my friends were there for me
and were unwilling to let me
face this situation alone.
Although many challenges
laid ahead as a result of an
abrupt deportation, I knew I
was blessed to have a community of friends that did everything they could to help in the
transition. For at least a week,

War or Peace in Mexico?
Frontera NorteSur
Caliente region of Guerrero, the
signing troika appealed for
peace in Mexico but vowed to
act against the Zetas, Zeta
leader Miguel Angel Trevino
and “all those who support him.”
The narco-banners also
contained a parting shot at
President Felipe Calderon, who
leaves office on December 1.
Accusing Calderon of being
responsible for the deaths of
“almost 60,000 innocent”
people, the unknown authors
blasted the outgoing Mexican
leader for being “the worst
(killer) of any delinquent group”
in the country.
In downtown Morelia,
Michoacan, the three-headed,
anti-Zetas “brotherhood” left
another sarcastic message for
Calderon last week, recogniz-
ing losses suffered by their organizations but also boasting of
casualties inflicted on the Federal Police.
“With all your power and
reach, it would have been a
good plan for Michoacan if
you could have treated your
people with love and true justice,” the Morelia narco-banner read in part. “But given
everything excuse us and since
we are not going to have you
as our ruler in December, we
wish you, your family and your
cabinet, as ( popular singer)
Vicente Fernandez said, a
beautiful farewell.”
The Guerrero narco-banners recalled similar statements that were posted across
Mexico in February 2010 and
largely missed by the interna-
tional press at the time. Announcing the formation of the

Mariachi Masters White House Engagement
Mariachi Master Apprentice Program and its instructors made the 2,700 mile trek from
San Fernando to the White House to share the stage with First Lady Michelle Obama.
By Khalil Abdullah
NEW AMERICA MEDIA
WASHINGTON— Alejandro
Ascencio and seven other
members of the Mariachi Master Apprentice Program and its
instructors made the 2,700 mile
trek from San Fernando to the
White House to share the stage
with First Lady Michelle
Obama on Nov 19th, 2012.
Had the group traveled by
car across the United States
through the southwest, the music and traditions for which they
were being honored would
have been easily available on
the radio through half their journey on the way to being feted
as one of the National Arts and
Humanities Youth Program
2012 Awardees.
Coming soon after a brief
respite from speaking engagements at end of a tumultuous
presidential campaign, Mrs.
Obama acknowledged that it
took her a few hesitant phrases
before settling into a heartfelt
welcome that exalted the
promise of arts education and
her husband’s administration’s
continuing commitment to fully
developing the human capital
of America’s youth.
Through the work of the
programs being extolled, Mrs.
Obama said, “You see kids
who never considered going to
college, finally saying to themselves, ‘Well, if I can publish
my own writing, if I can create my own artwork, if I can
get up in front of all these
people and perform anywhere,
including the East Room of the
White House, well then certainly I can go to college,
right?” Mrs. Obama asked.
“Of course I can continue my
education, expand my ambitions and pursue my dreams.”
The 12 winners were drawn
from the 50 finalists of over 350
entries and ran the gamut from
programs that featured African
dance, poetry, photography,
theater, and visual arts to those
like Oakland’s Youth Radio that
provided training for internships in journalism and other
facets of media. The International Spotlight Award was bestowed upon the Western
China Cultural Ecology Workshop for its 100 Dong Songs
Program designed to preserve
the legacy of the Dong people.
Starr Arroyo, a 15-year old
Latina from the Bronx, described how being a member
of the debate team of the Urban Assembly at the Bronx
School of Law, Government
and Justice, has opened new
vistas for her. She said she is
intent on going to college, inspired particularly by her
mother and Latina Supreme
Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor,
also from the Bronx. Echoing
Mrs. Obama’s remarks, Arroyo said that “standing here
in the White House, I feel the
world is full of possibilities.”
The First Lady said the ceremony honors not only the youth,
but the instructors. She was
struck, she said, by the motto of
Seattle’s Art Corp — “Make art
anyway” — that it captured the
spirit of those dedicated to arts
education for youth.
“You teach them, that no
matter what life throws your
way, if they draw on their own
talent and, courage and creativity; if they are persistent, and
tenacious and bold – bold –
then they can truly make something extraordinary of their
lives,” Obama said, “because
that’s what we expect, nothing but extraordinary.”
For 15-year-old Ascencio,
messages about ambition,
dreams and being extraordinary
were as resonant as the sixstringed guitaron he played during his group’s standing ovation
performance during a musical
interlude in the ceremony. Resplendent, as were his colleagues, in white-trimmed azure
suits of the mariachi, Ascencio
explained that his love of music
began when he was four or five
years-old and that he’s been
playing music seriously for
about eight years. “I started with
the piano and then, from the piano, I started playing the accordion. I started playing Norteno
music,” he said, describing the
popular music that taps the blend
of Mexico’s traditions infused
with Czech, German and Polish elements from the European
presence in the region in the late
1800s.
“My father, from when he
was small, he used to play with
the mariachi. He sells houses
and he had clients whose son
was in this program,” he said
of the troupe. “He thought it
would be a good idea for me
to join as an accordionist in
mariachi, which is not very
common. So, I go to the pro-
gram; I audition. I made it as
an accordionist, but over the
years – I’ve been in the program two and a half years –
I’ve learned several instruments: the guitaron, trumpet,
vihuela – which is almost like
the guitar, and the guitar.”
He has decided he wants to
be a professional musician or
to be able to use music in his
career for the rest of his life.
“I’m looking into sound engineering, anything with sound
whether it’s live or studio, or
even sound effects for movies, studio tracks for movies —
all that stuff,” Ascencio said.
“It is so critical that we pre-
serve arts education in our
schools,” Mrs. Obama said. “It
is absolutely critical because we
know how important it is for our
children’s development. We all
know, every one of us who are
here in this room will do whatever it takes to make sure that
our own kids get access to
sports and music and arts and
recreation. So if it’s good
enough for our kids, it’s good
enough for all of our kids.”

Este programa se realiza
bajo los auspicios de

en Tijuana fue coordinado por
Don Fernando Tapia Cortés.
Apasionados bailadores de
danzón de todo el estado

Cómo cuidar a un ser querido con la
enfermedad de Alzheimer
Probablemente jamás pensó
sufrirlo usted y su familia, pero
teniendo los hispanos 1.5 veces
más probabilidades de desarrollar Alzheimer que la
población blanca no hispana,
usted o un ser querido pueden
verse afectados por esta
enfermedad. Este noviembre,
en el marco del Mes de la
concientización sobre el
Alzheimer, Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation desea
brindar su ayuda a los cuidadores que desempeñan una
función crucial en la vida de
las personas que padecen la
enfermedad de Alzheimer.
Los estudios demuestran
que existe un mayor grado de
responsabilidad entre las
familias hispanas para cuidar
a las personas mayores. Ser un
cuidador puede ser una
experiencia gratificante, pero
también puede resultar muy
difícil. Por eso es importante
que se tome tiempo libre para
conservar la salud mental y
prepararse para afrontar los
desafíos. Hacer ejercicio,
llevar una dieta saludable y
socializar con amigos son
actividades que favorecen su
bienestar general. Incluso solo
tomarse unos minutos diarios
para cerrar los ojos y respirar
profundo puede ser un alivio.
Cuidar a un ser querido con
la enfermedad de Alzheimer
puede ser abrumador, pero
contar con información práctica y orientación profunda
puede ayudarlo a permanecer
en contacto con la realidad.
Los siguientes cinco principios
básicos pueden servir como
base para una tarea de cuidado
saludable.
Hable con el médico.
Puede resultar difícil hablar
con un médico cuando se está
preocupado por un ser querido
que quizás está padeciendo la
enfermedad de Alzheimer.
Anote previamente los síntomas que observa, como
cambios en la memoria, el humor o el comportamiento para
no olvidar la información que
desea compartir con el médico
cuando tenga la oportunidad.
Ser un cuidador puede ser una experiencia
gratificante, pero también puede resultar muy difícil.
posible que un cónyuge o un
padre que solía ser independiente tenga que aceptar ayuda
por primera vez en su vida. Un
hijo puede tener que sostener
a ese padre que siempre lo ha
sostenido a él. Estas adaptaciones de roles pueden resultar
complicadas, sobre todo al
principio. Pero es posible hacer
los ajustes necesarios para que
se beneficien tanto usted como
la persona afectada siempre
que conserve la relación que
los une en su mente.
Consiga ayuda.
La atención del paciente
trae aparejadas muchas
emociones difíciles de manejar.
Miedo a la dependencia, a la
soledad, a la aislación o
sentimientos de culpa, rabia o
depresión por parte del
cuidador, todo puede formar
parte de la experiencia. Por eso
es tan importante mantener
abiertos los canales de comunicación con amigos y
familiares y solicitar ayuda
cuando la necesite. Puede
encontrar más información a
través de grupos de apoyo locales o consultando a un
profesional de la salud mental.
que puede hacer por usted
como cuidador/a es cuidar de
sí mismo, primero y ante todo.
De este modo obtendrá la
energía que necesita para
cuidar a su ser querido. Cuando
se trata de afrontar la experiencia del cuidado, trate de
centrarse en los días buenos y
en todos los recuerdos hermosos que conserva.
Conéctese con otras
personas.
Volver a conectarse con
amigos y familiares, buscar
apoyo en Internet y participar
en la comunidad son todas
buenas maneras de mantenerse socialmente activo y ver
las cosas en perspectiva.
Equipándose con información sobre la enfermedad de
Alzheimer, también será capaz
de atender adecuadamente las
necesidades de su ser querido.
Información en su propio
idioma, que incluye una lista de
los recursos se encuentra
disponible en www.alz.org/
espanol.
Cuidar a un ser querido es
un gran desafío, pero es un
acto generoso y puede
constituir una experiencia
gratificante. Siéntase orgulloso
de sí mismo y de la atención
que brinda a quienes lo necesitan.

El Soporte Informativo Para Millones
de Hispanos
Por Luisa Fernanda Montero
Si bien es cierto que las
preocupaciones de la vida
cotidiana a veces nos superan,
es cierto también, que tenemos
la capacidad de controlar
nuestras emociones y el poder
de decidir que tanto nos afecta
uno u otro asunto.
Las exigencias de la modernidad son cada vez más altas,
e ir al ritmo del congestionado
mundo en el que vivimos se
vuelve imperativo. La cuestión
es cuál debe ser nuestra
actitud.
De acuerdo con la Asociación Americana de Psicología
-APA- la tercera parte de la
población de Estados Unidos
vive en un estado de estrés
extremo, mientras que el 49
por ciento – casi la mitad –
cree que sus niveles de estrés
han ido en aumento en los
últimos cinco años.
¿Y su estrés? ¿Cómo está?
Además de ser un dolor de
cabeza y ser la causa principal
de varias enfermedades, el
estrés le daña la vida, afecta
sus relaciones personales y
disminuye su productividad.
Así que al final del día, cuando
nos estresamos, sólo estamos
aumentando el problema.
No me malentienda, no le
pido que sea insensible o que
“se haga el de la vista gorda”,
lo que digo, es que nosotros y
solo nosotros podemos decidir
que tanto nos dejamos afectar
por determinados sucesos.
Para muchos de nosotros el
día comienza con el estrés del
tráfico vehicular. Para poner un
ejemplo sencillo. Seguramente
salimos tres, cuatro o diez
minutos más de lo indicado y
la larga fila de autos a la que
llegamos a punto de gemir de
desesperación, parece interminable o, de hecho, lo es. Es
claro que pudimos evitarlo,
pero ya estamos allí. Le aseguro, es más, le juro que por
más que se estrese, active la
bocina o se enoje, nada va a
cambiar. La fila de autos
seguirá siendo interminable. La
cuestión es simple: hay circunstancias que podemos
evitar y hay decisiones que
podemos tomar.
Si ya nos agarró la congestión vehicular, el taco, o el
trancón y no hay nada que
hacer es mejor relajarse, asumir
las consecuencias y aprovechar
el tiempo pensando en cómo las
enfrentaremos, que dedicarnos
a lanzar improperios.
Y aunque el ejemplo parezca muy simple la verdad es
que al final, la vida misma es
más simple de lo que nosotros
creemos.
En su recientemente publicado libro The Worry Solution,
el doctor y maestro de la
Universidad de California,
Martin Rossman, nos invita
entre otras cosas a aprender a
respirar. El simple acto de
detenernos y respirar conscientemente puede disminuir
notablemente nuestros niveles
Luisa Fernanda Montero
de ansiedad.
Respire, haga ejercicio,
busque técnicas de relajación
que se amolden a sus necesidades y piense. Muchas
veces, nos estresamos incluso
por cosas que no han ocurrido.
¿Está seguro de que eso que
tanto le preocupa realmente
ocurrirá? Si está seguro, invierta el tiempo en la búsqueda
de soluciones. Le aseguro que
es más productivo, y si no,
¿entonces que le preocupa?
Es muy probable que eso
que tanto teme jamás ocurra.
El Instituto Americano de
Terapia Cognitiva ha encontrado que el 85 por ciento de
los asuntos preocupantes no
tienen un final tan oscuro como
se temía e incluso que los
preocupados resultan resolviendo el asunto mucho mejor
de lo que esperaban.
Así que usted decide si
invierte su tiempo en angustias
y dolores o prefiere darle un
lugar adecuado al estrés y
dedicarse un poquito más,
realmente, a ser feliz.

School board members need to lead and
change the business as usual culture
R
e-elected Sweetwater Union
High School District board
members Pearl Quinones and
Bertha Lopez will soon be
sworn on to the Board for another four years
of service. The question is will it be four
more years of the same old thing or will
these board members take the bull by the
horns and bring about changes that are so
sorely needed.
Bertha Lopez ran her campaign as a reformer, as the person leading the way
against corruption, as a leader of the people.
Pearl Quinones ran under the cloud of an
indictment and had to face the onslaught of
attacks against her character of honesty and
integrity.
The District Attorney’s investigation into
Quinones and sitting board member Arlie
Ricasa, along with the indictments against
Greg Sandoval and former superintendent
Jesus Gandara, coupled with the recent scandalous reports coming out of San Ysidro
school district, clearly defines the systemic
problems within the school board system.
The question is will the re-elected board
members, along with the board majority fix
the problem or will they sit back and do
nothing and allow the problems to continue
and fester?
What is wrong with the system: there are
no term limits, there is no cap on campaign
contributions, and there is a need for district-seated elections.
Running for office is an expensive proposition and running for a school board seat
that encompasses three cities, National City,
Chula Vista, and Imperial Beach causes the
cost of campaigning to exceed $100,000.
Imagine raising $100,000 every four years
in campaign donations.
To raise this much money candidates, in
particular incumbents running for re-election, have come to depend on special interests and contractor donations to fill campaign coffers. With no campaign contribution limits, it is not out of the question for a
contractor to donate large amounts of
money. The contractor knows that in the
near future, he will be before the same board
member seeking a million dollar contract.
Without term limits it is the norm for board
members to serve 16, 20, 24 years on the
board. During this time the interaction, the
line between campaign donors and board
members becomes blurred between business associate/campaign donor and friendship.
The solutions are simple and straight forward:
1: Put a limit on campaign contributions,
no one person or entity can give more than
$500.
2: Instead of open elections create smaller
seat district elections. Not only will this create equal representation across the district,
it will reduce the geographic size of the campaign area and cut costs.
3: Term limits. Two (2) four-year terms
should be enough for any school board
member. To allow these board members to
serve 5 or 6 terms only invites more opportunity for familiarity and the opportunity
for corruption and empire building.
There are three ways to make these
changes come about. One is for the citizens
to put forth a resolution or a motion and the
school board act upon it. Second, for the
citizens to put a proposition on the ballot, it
is a costly matter. The better way is for the
school board to take it upon itself to bring
forth these changes and put them on a ballot for the voters to decide. This would be
the easiest and most expeditious way to
bring about change.
It is up to the current board members to
do what is best for the future of elected board
members. Election reform can help deal with
systemic problems that occur not only at
Sweetwater but in San Ysidro. We hope that
the members of this board do not sit on their
hands and do nothing about election reform.
Not doing anything to correct the resulting
problems from election peculiarities would
be criminal in of itself, with all the problems
and issues this board is facing.

Trade Center; Luis and Hector Bustamante leaders in commercial and residential real estate representation. And on the list goes.
Locally Filner will find numerous allies such
as Hector Molina, President of CaNeMexA,
the chamber of Mexican-American and Mexican business owners; Jason Wells, CEO of the
San Ysidro Chamber of Commerce, Cindy
Gomper Graves, CEO of the South County
EDC. Political allies that he can call on to work
with him on the binational endeavor will very
likely include SD Councilman David Alvarez,
who represents Filner’s old city council seat;
Assemblyman Ben Hueso; in Chula Vista council members Rudy Ramirez and Mary Salas as
well as the numerous business organizations
and agencies, and educational institutions working with cross border counterparts.
At a recent meeting of CaNeMexA exploring the topic Challenges and Opportunities for
Cross Border Business Relationships, Chula
Vista councilman Rudy Ramirez, who is also a
cross-border business owner and Jose Antonio
Gonzalez, President of the Mexican Entrepreneurial Council for Export Technology and Investment stressed the need for more dialogue
and effort by both sides of the border and to
jointly formulate plans for our region.
As though taking a page from Mayor Filner’s
vision, Mr. Gonzalez said, “We are only divided
by a political line that should not interfere with
our well being, development and understanding.”
Mayor Filner not only merits our best wishes
for the success of this historic first but also
deserves out support as outgoing Mayor Sanders noted, “What is good for San Diego is good
for Tijuana and vise versa.”
The election of Bob Filner as Mayor of San
Diego can have positive trans-border economic
growth with his plan of San Diego’s opening
an office in Tijuana for direct and timely communications with that city’s mayor, other city
and state officials and business and community leaders. It’s long overdue.
To be sure, the idea of closer cooperation between the cities of San Diego and Tijuana have
been important with former San Diego mayors
as most recently exemplified by Mayor Jerry
Sanders who had a strong and amicable relationship with the former and present Tijuana
mayors. Going back to Pete Wilson who worked
closely with Tijuana city, state and federal agencies on the location of the Otay Mesa Port of
Entry, and Susan Golding establishing a direct
telephone (Red Line) between her office and
then Mayor of Tijuana, Hector Osuna Jaime,
after the devastating El Niño storms that crippled
Tijuana’s economy. Most previous San Diego
mayor’s have had a Binational Affairs Director
reaching across the border providing communication’s continuity; and the city of Tijuana
keeps an office located within SANDAG.
However, Mayor Filner’s move establishing
the first San Diego office in a foreign country,
albeit it’s immediate neighboring city, is not only
historical, but it also takes the relationship to a
positive new and higher level. It demonstrates
the importance Filner gives the relationship and
the desire and intention of creating a true binational region in which both cities have much to
win.
The timing for Mayor Filner could not be more
perfect. He will find Tijuana’s present leadership to be dynamic and progressive. Headed by
Mayor Carlos Bustamante, a multi-generation
Tijuanense highly successful business and community involved family, who has surrounded himself with competent leaders such as Miguel
Velasco Bustamante as the city’s Economic
Development Secretary, past president of the
EDC and Industrial Parks Association, plus the
former Federal regional representative of the Patrick Osio is the Editor of Hispanic
Department of Commerce; David Navarro as Vista.com. Contact at [email protected]
Republicans never really understood
the Hispanic voter
By Jerome Orlando Torres
political power at the state and local level is happening. This certitude stems from the reality that,
not since the founding of our State, Latino children now comprise the numerical majority in
California’s public schools. For a look into the
future, one needs to look no further than New
Mexico where 47% of the total population is
Latino. Today, the Governor and Lt. Governor
as well as 41% of the legislature are Latino –
both as Democrats and Republicans. In one or
two generations, the same will be said of Texas,
Colorado, Nevada, Arizona and Florida. Yes, it
will even be realized in San Diego County. The
ranks of Latinos eligible to vote are growing
unabated. This is a terrifying thought for many
fearful of the implications. No vested interest
gives up political power freely.
So, what do we do now?
At the national level, we must seize the moment and ensure Republicans and Democrats
enact comprehensive immigration reform. This
includes a pathway toward full citizenship for
the millions of undocumented Latinos who have
and continue to positively contribute to our society.
In California, with the passage of Proposition 30, we must ensure that real education reform takes place that addresses the academic
needs of Latino children.
In San Diego, we must hold Mayor-elect
Filner to his word that he will focus on neighborhoods and not on downtown business interests. We must also ensure Mayor Filner provides Latinos a seat at the table when it comes
to developing policies that benefit the neighborhoods within which we live.
In Chula Vista and Escondido, we must be
fully engaged to ensure that City Council districts are created fairly to promote Latino empowerment. With the passage of Proposition B,
a framework has been created in Chula Vista.
With the defeat of the City Charter Amendment in Escondido, the struggle continues so
long as Mayor Abed and his majority are in
office thereby guaranteeing further litigation
and acrimony. We just have to be patient and
relentless. Our time will come.
November 6, 2012, will long be remembered
as a cathartic moment for the American Latino.
Incensed by the verbal assault directed at Latino
immigrants by the Republican Party and its Tea
Party ideologues during the presidential campaign as well as the legislative assault in Statehouses throughout the South, we used our best
weapon in response: our vote. In one synchronized voice, El Grito (or shout-out) reverberated
across the American political landscape.
After losing 71% of the Latino vote, resulting in pivotal loses in the swing states of Nevada, Florida and Colorado, Republicans were
deprived of the White House. Joining the coalition of Democratic voters, Latinos helped prevent Republicans from control of the U.S. Senate and weakened their political strength in the
U.S. House of Representatives. In the aftermath, so-called political pundits have suddenly
had an epiphany: America is undergoing a fundamental demographic change and Latinos are
the primary force.
Chastened by the prospect of further political defeats in 2014 and 2016, Republicans in
Congress and elsewhere are feigning contrition. They never understood, for Latinos, the
primary issue wasn’t the economy, jobs, abortion, or family values. It was about respect.
Provide that first. Then, we’ll listen to your
party platform – maybe.
Locally, the Latino vote was instrumental in
providing Bob Filner victory in the Mayor’s race.
DiMaio never had a chance with Latino voters. He can thank his friend and mentor, former
Governor Pete Wilson for that. Ever since
Proposition 187, the California Republican Party
has been dying a slow death. It has been reduced to permanent minority status and potential irrelevancy. The time will come when the
Arizona Republican Party will suffer the same
fate at the hands of Governor Brewer. Why?
It’s called critical mass. Numbers count. It is
no coincidence 28 Latinos were elected to the
113th Class of the U.S. House of Representatives, the most ever. Or that the California Legislature has 23 Latinos among its ranks.
In California, the inevitable ascension of Latino Jerome Torres is a resident of San Diego.
Juan Vargas’ seat is open now that he is
replacing Bob Filner in Congress which will
cause all kinds of political fallout. Hueso
runs for Vargas state senate seat, Steve
Castañeda and Lorena Gonzalez run for
Hueso’s Assembly seat… we shall see. All
we know is that the political season is not yet
over…
Mayor-elect Bob Filner won because
of the Hispanic vote… Now we will see
if he includes a Hispanic, one Hispanic,
in his kitchen cabinet… not some
glorified position but a position of
importance…
So far Filner has selected Vince Hall
as chief of staff and Donna Frye to
something called director of open
government (shouldn’t government already
be open???) and he has keep on his chief
of police, chief of the fire department, the
chief operating office… so far no
Hispanics….
Soak City in Chula Vista will soon
become Aquatica, SeaWorld’s Waterpark,
does that mean they will start selling beer
there??? SeaWorld parks were owned by
Anheuser Busch which is now owned by
some German beer company… our beer
company got outsourced???? Anyway,
maybe now, that park will start making some
money for Chula Vista.
Mayor Sanders is spending his last few
days in office making the rounds, sort of a
victory lap for doing a good job. Don’t know
if he did a good job or not, but we won’t
forget the time he went on air and praised
the minute men for going out into the fields
The 4th council seat will be vacant come
Dec. 31 when Tony Young steps down for a and canyons and rousting the workers camp
better paying job, just goes to show politicians sites, trashing them trying to run them out…
qué lástima! That and the San Ysidro
don’t see this as serving the community but
as a job, in most cases the only job they can massacre we will never forget…. don’t care if
he did a good job as mayor or not, everyday

we see his face it just reminds us…
benefits…
The 4th district became a little more
solidified when they redrew the districts and
carved out some of the more prominent
Hispanic areas of the district making it more
favorable for the Black community. So far
Myrtle Cole of the UDW - The Homecare
Providers Union and Brian Pollard a small
business owner and one time candidate for
the same seat have announced their
candidacy.
Sanders will soon be the CEO of the
regional chamber, which explains why
Ruben Barrales quit or asked to leave.
Sanders is going to be making some big
bucks, what with his retirement pay from
being chief of police, retirement pay from
being mayor, and now his salary as CEO of
the chamber, Barrales made over $300,000
per year… talk about pulling down some
change…

Control Your Space: It is the message not Reforma Migratoria: ¿a la tercera va
the wrapping paper
la vencida?
By Rodolfo F. Acuña
I am often asked what ideology I favor, and
what tactics should Chicanas/os use to achieve
equality. If I were living in the 19th Century I
would take the question seriously. However,
while this kind of conjecture is interesting, let’s
face it, we live in another age. Ideologies are
ideas to explain the mess we live in. Since I
have a tremendous respect for the sages of the
19th century, I would not pretend to add to what
they wrote; they are as relevant today as they
were then.
Add to them the descriptions of Charles
Dickens in Oliver Twist of the street children
in 1830s London, a phenomenon brought about
by the Industrial Revolution. It seems pretty
clear that the chaos Dickens and the sages
sought to explain and prescribe a cure for was
good old greed – even Gordon Gekko would
recognize that.
Greed is nothing new. People have known
that usury is wrong for thousands of years. The
ancient Hindus and Buddhists said it was as
did the ancient Greeks that condemned practice as did the Hebrews and the Prophet
Mohammed. The Catholic Church recognized
the dangers of banking and loaning money at
excessive interest. Usury was against the Natural Law, you could go to hell for it until the
Church decided that it was a mortal sin unless
the Catholic Church loaned the money, which
was then done in the name of God. The only
other exceptions were Jews who the Church
fathers decided were going to hell anyway. At
the same time, greed made it okay for the
Church to sell tickets out of purgatory in form
of indulgences.
Although greed is still viewed as wrong the
world is a much more complex and people rationalize it. People stake out beliefs, and justify
their greed through appeals to a higher authority. They say that God gave them that right to
be greedy. God is the final arbiter. Thus God
gave nations land, like “he”, it is always “he”,
is a real estate broker. God thus gives the individual level the right to ignore that other people’s
children work in sweatshops to make toys to
give them to your children at a low price.
Aside from witnessing life, my ideas have
been formed from a variety of sources. As mentioned the sages and my religious upbringing
exposed me to ideas such as usury. From the
scholastics I learned that if something is true
then something that contradicts it cannot be true.
It is just simple logic.
Contemporary readings inform me daily. For
instance, I always enjoyed the cartoonist/
playwrite Jules Feiffer. I am a huge fan of his
1960s satirical play “Little Murderers.” It is
about Alfred, a onetime successful photographer, who has decided to eliminate people from
his photographs and just film objects. Under
trying circumstances he meets Patsy. Alfred is
getting beaten up and mugged but he refuses
to fight back. Patsy sees this and intervenes
and the muggers turn on her and beat her. Alfred
just walks away and does not lift a finger to
help her. She breaks away and confronts Alfred
who scolds her, why did she intervene? They
would have stopped when they got tired of hitting him.
Patsy sees this as a challenge. She wants to
remake him into an assertive man who will protect her, and decides to marry Alfred. She takes
Alfred home to meet her family who want him
to be successful. Alfred loves Patsy, but he rejects her family’s idea that for him to be successful and his life to have meaning he has to
return to photographing people. Alfred gets
angry and says his photographs would have just
as much meaning if filmed excrement.
For Alfred the world is senseless, and he cannot feel passionate about the senseless urban
and world violence, the senseless killings, prejudices and dysfunctional families. Alfred is contemptuous of society.
Although some have tried to draw parallels
between Alfred and Albert Camus’ “The Myth
of Sisyphus;” they are quite different.
Camus’ “The Myth of Sisyphus” is about “the
absurd.” It is about Sisyphus who is condemned
for eternity to roll a rock up a hill only to make
no progress and have the rock roll back on him.
Camus sees a conflict between what we want
from life and the reality (chaos). Thus we can
never know the meaning of life unless we make
a leap of faith and place hopes in a God. We
are left with the option of placing our faith in
God or committing suicide. We either accept
our fate and live in a meaningless world or give
up. The conclusion that life is meaningless necessarily leads us to commit suicide. It can be
argued that Sisyphus has resigned himself to
uselessness, and the fact that the gods are punishing you. You accept your fate and you keep
going.
Gordon Gekko is a creature of greed. He
says, “The point is, ladies and gentleman, that
greed, for lack of a better word, is good. Greed
is right, greed works. Greed clarifies, cuts
through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Greed, in all of its forms; greed
for life, for money, for love, knowledge has
marked the upward surge of mankind…”
When Gekko in Wall Street II gets out of jail
he says, “Someone reminded me I once said
“Greed is good. Now it seems it’s legal. Because everyone is drinking the same Kool Aid.”
The positivists with their laissez faire philosophy would have been proud of Gekko; the other
materialists would have seen him as the root
of the chaos.
I naturally side with the others – it is greed
that causes inequality and ignorance. Take Arizona. I have found all three models there:
Alfred, Sisyphus and Gekko, although most of
the latter are wannabe Gordon Gekkos.
In Arizona I saw many members of the
Mexican American community react like
Alfred who is just tired of the chaos and drops
out of society. For them nothing is going to
change, some went to the service, returned and
still there is street violence, racism and a lack
of opportunity. Why fight it?
Others like Sisyphus choose to place their
faith in another world and keep rolling that rock
up the hill and accept its rolling back on them
as their fate. They buy their lottery tickets and
look forward to an afterlife.
In Arizona there are very few Gordon
Gekkos just a lot of wannabes. The real Gekkos
include ALEC, the American Legislative Exchange Council, and the Koch Brothers who
are devoid of any scruples. They don’t care
about right or wrong as long as they make a
profit. They know Mexicans are not the problem but they demonize them anyway to make
a profit. In this way, they can elect their puppets, fill their prisons, their charter schools, have
liberal gun laws, sell arms to cartels, launder
money from their illicit profits and pay low or
no taxes.
They know that Mexicans are not a problem
but to make a profit and get their puppets elected
people have to fear them. Thus they say that
the body snatchers are taking their land. To fill
up the prisons and reap hundreds of millions
they target them and round them up like cattle.
To steal public land and control Mexicans they
have to keep them uneducated.
Cadres of wannabe Gekkos toe the line. John
Pedicone in Tucson – previously a school superintendent at a tiny school district parlayed
three years as a superintendent there to take
over the medium sized Tucson Unified School
District at over $300,000 a year. Mark
Stegeman, a failed economics professor who
would have a hard time getting tenure at a
California Community College heads up the
board of education. They are willing accomplices.
A great pretender is state Superintendent of
Schools John Huppenthal whose claim to fame
is that he authored 200 bills that supposedly
improved Arizona Education. However, Arizona ranks near last in education nationally fighting it out with Mississippi for the worse. The
other is Tom Horne, a failed lawyer who went
bankrupt in 1970, and received a lifetime trading ban from the Securities and Exchange Commission. Both these losers resurrected their
careers by race baiting Mexicans, joining the
long line of wannabes.
It is easy to recognize the source of the chaos
in Arizona. It is going to take an awful lot more
to bring it under control. But I believe that everyone has the right to live life to its fullest and
to do this you have to control your space.
How do you do it? Part of the reason why I
am on Facebook is to encourage young people
to read about the chaos around them and express ideas — to define reality. The only way
this can be done is by knowing the truth and
defining. That is why I encourage students to
write.
Anyone can write. I got a C in Freshman
English at Loyola University. Well, everyone
got a C.
Frank Sullivan was probably the best teacher
I ever had. He told us that C is average and
everyone is average so unless you really
messed up you wouldn’t fail. But to do better
you really had to do extraordinary work for an
A.
Never called roll class and his classes were
always full. The Jesuits protected him from
McCarthy Hearings, Sullivan was a socialist.
I am convinced that we have to write and
write and write about what is happening in
Tucson.
Spread the message; forget about the colons, the semi-colons, and punctuation that will
come with practice. Just write, everyone is a
potential Gabriel Garcia Marquez. We have to
document our struggle and the mendacity of
people that want to condemn us to the ovens
of ignorance.
Remember it is the message, not the paper
that it is wrapped in, that is important.
WASHINGTON – Con la visita del presidente
electo de México, Enrique Peña Nieto, a la
capital estadounidense esta semana, son tres
los dignatarios que ha tenido el vecino país en
los pasados doce años sin que se haya
concretado la esquiva reforma migratoria. Y
en cierta forma, la visita marca tres diferentes
etapas en los esfuerzos de impulsar esa reforma.
La visita de Peña Nieto se produce tras una
contienda presidencial en Estados Unidos que
dejó más que claro el poder de los votantes
hispanos en decidir elecciones y cómo el
manejo que den los políticos al tema migratorio
los define entre los electores latinos.
Los resultados de esa elección constituyen
un mandato para que el presidente Barack
Obama impulse esa reforma e invierta capital
político en el proceso, una inversión a corto y a
largo plazo que supondrá réditos para los
demócratas.
Para los republicanos se trató de la más clara
confirmación de que sin el voto hispano no
pueden llegar a la Casa Blanca y por su propia
supervivencia política deben negociar con los
demócratas el asunto que por años han
explotado para mantener a su base ultraconservadora ignorando los cambios
demográficos producidos bajo sus propias
narices que no sólo se manifiestan con más
hispanos en sus pueblos y ciudades sino,
eventualmente, con más poder en las urnas.
Esta coyuntura de la visita de Peña Nieto es
quizá la más favorable para esa reforma
migratoria a nivel político en Estados Unidos.
En el 2001, cuando el panista Vicente Fox
visitó Washington, todos creímos que se habían
alineado los planetas en favor de la reforma
migratoria. La Casa Blanca era ocupada por
George W. Bush tras una polémica elección,
pero W. cuando menos no cambió su apoyo a
esa reforma ni cuando buscó la nominación, ni
como candidato republicano en la general, ni
como presidente, aún a expensas de la
oposición del ala más derechista de su partido.
Pero los ataques terroristas del 11 de septiembre
de 2001 sepultaron la reforma migratoria. Si
bien W. Bush invirtió capital político en su
segundo período, el vínculo del terrorismo con
la inmigración fue explotado por la oposición a
la reforma migratoria y eso sumado a los dimes
y diretes sobre los detalles de dicha reforma,
impidieron progreso en ese frente. Lo único
que avanzó fueron medidas policiacas y políticas
de colaboración migratoria entre el gobierno
federal y los estados cuyos efectos siguen
reverberando entre la comunidad inmigrante.
Se dieron los primeros pasos para el clima
tóxico que ha caracterizado el debate migratorio
y que fue génesis de todas las leyes estatales
antiinmigrantes que proliferaron a través del
país.
Fue en medio de ese ambiente tóxico que
fue electo otro panista, Felipe Calderón, cuyas
visitas a Washington, particularmente su visita
de Estado en el 2010, sólo constituyeron
eventos sociales porque en materia migratoria,
específicamente sobre la reforma, había poco
que decir.
Más bien el asunto migratorio se vio desde el
prisma del combate al narcotráfico que marcó
la presidencia de Calderón y la relación bilateral entre México y Estados Unidos.
Es decir, bajo la presidencia de Fox la excusa
de los anti reforma fue tildar de terroristas a
todos los inmigrantes, aunque quienes
perpetraron los ataques ingresaran legalmente
a Estados Unidos; y bajo Calderón, la estrategia
fue tildar a los inmigrantes de narcotraficantes
y de hecho, este argumento se usó para atraer
apoyo a leyes estatales antiinmigrantes como
la SB 1070 de Arizona.
Dos años después de la elección de Calderón,
en 2008, fue elegido Obama con la promesa de
revivir esas pláticas migratorias. Ya lo ocurrido
es historia.
Obama permanecerá en la Casa Blanca un
segundo periodo con una renovada promesa
de apechar el tema migratorio y con un Partido
Republicano en el Congreso que está dando
señales de aparentemente querer negociar la
reforma que representaría más beneficios de
los actuales para ambos países.
Después de todo, la única constante de los
pasados doce años ha sido la población
indocumentada en Estados Unidos, mayormente de México, que ofrece mano de obra
barata en Estados Unidos y remesas para
México, pero sigue sumida en las sombras sin
derechos y vulnerables a la explotación.
Peña Nieto esta semana hará alusión a los
paisanos que tuvieron que salir de su país por
falta de oportunidades, y Obama alabará la
estrecha relación comercial y cultural que une
a los dos países.
Una relación marcada por los millones de
indocumentados que impulsan en gran medida
las economías de ambos países, con su trabajo
acá y sus remesas allá, y que esperan que este
tercer intento de impulsar la reforma migratoria
en Estados Unidos sea finalmente la vencida.

With th clock ticking on Turner,
time to look to the future
By Burt
Grossman
NOVEMBER 30, 2012
times tend to hinder a coach of Cowher’s style.
Brian Billick- This is a no shot, but I had to
include Billick because everyone does on these
lists.
Scenario two- AJ miraculously keeps his job
as GM. This will seriously handicap the Chargers attempts to lure the best candidate to town.
So where and who would that leave us with?
People will float Chip Kelly at Oregon as well
as Brian Kelly at Notre Dame, neither would
take the job or more accurately leave their current jobs for this job or situation. So who would
come here under AJ and still THINK they could
be successful?
Jim Mora Jr, UCLA-I like Jim and think
the biggest knock on him is that he wears his
emotions on his sleeve. That’s probably exactly
what the Chargers need. Similar to UCLA, the
Chargers are seen as a talented but soft team
with no ability to deliver knock out punches or
finish an opponent. Mora seems to have
changed that attitude at UCLA in a short
amount of time similar to what Jim Harbaugh
has done at Stanford and the 49ers.
Mike Zimmer, Bengals Defensive Coordinator- We will get a chance to see Zimmer at
work this week when the Chargers face the
Bengals. Actually with the blackout, we will
get to hear it on the radio but not actually see
it. But there is a lot of buzz about Zimmer and
he shares what every coach on this list does –
an intense competitive fire that is contagious.
Rob Ryan, Dallas Cowboys Defensive Coordinator- Ryan would probably already be a
Head Coach if he didn’t look like Lou Albano
or some mess that stumbled out of a biker bar.
He hasn’t gotten the memo that the NFL is a
billion dollar image machine and that his look
while fine for the Raiders of the 1970’s and
1980’s is frowned upon now- a- days. That’s
sad because he is a great coordinator and
maybe that’s the position where he should stay.
Norv Turner was a great offensive coordinator in Dallas also but has been a complete failure as Head Coach of the Redskins-Raiders
and Chargers since.
My pick is obvious- Jon Gruden - from scenario one as well as overall. But let’s say we
are stuck with AJ and scenario two. The choice
then would be Jim Mora. Sadly if AJ is still
here, I would advise that if you are a hard core
Charger fan, you may prefer scenario three Doomsday December and the end of the
Mayan long calendar December 21.
Now that it’s
official, aside
from the “mathematically we
are still alive
crowd” let’s
look at the candidates out
there that will
be in the hunt to
replace Norv
Turner.
This will be
an interesting
story simply for
the fact that
there will be two pools of candidates depending
on the status of AJ Smith.
The first group will be comprised of proven
winners that have switched from the sidelines
to the broadcast booth. These guys are proven
winners but also would be considered control
freaks. No one of this first group would even
slightly consider taking the job unless AJ Smith
was gone and they were given complete control of their own destiny. Believe me there is
no established winner out there that would ever
sign on with the Chargers while AJ is still calling the shots – that would be the quickest way
to becoming an established loser. So let’s assume AJ is also shown the door. Here are the
names you will hear floated as the new Charger
Czar (Coach/General Manager).
Jon Gruden- I would say this would be the
best fit. Gruden is young and energetic (49 years
old). He has won everywhere he has been, and
players like and respect his style. More importantly the dead lifelessness proceeded by panic
on the sidelines will be gone under Gruden. He
has a competitive nature and style similar to
Rivers, and I believe it would become contagious. Does Gruden want to return to coaching, and could he get out of his five year Monday Night Football deal? Stayed tuned.
Bill Cowher- Cowher is similar to Gruden
except I believe Gruden wants to return, and
Cowher does not. Many think the game has
passed him by after seven years. With the new
CBA, the players, and their Union signed this Grossman is a former No. 1 draft pick of
year that may just be true. One day a week in the Chargers in 1989, playing five
pads, mandatory off days and limited meeting seasons with the team.
Latinos: Be careful
what you wish for
(con’t from page 1)
tives, a net gain of four in an institution that
has little support or respect from the public. It
has been phenomenally dysfunctional during
times when it needed to be at its best.
Few of the newly elected Latino members
have spoken yet about how they would help
change these serious structural problems in
Congress. Their campaigns were standard fare
as campaigns go. In other words, they were
not campaigns of new ideas, vision and specifics. With the exception of the Texas U.S.
Senate race, most of these campaigns hit Republican incumbents hard or criticized the Republican position and philosophy. The campaigns were not about competing ideas, solutions or philosophies. The Texas race hardly
addressed any of the main issues of concern
to Latinos or the fact that the Republican and
Democratic strategies had excluded the reality of Latinos that “one size does not fit all.”
Before the ink was dry on President
Obama’s victory speech, the liberal left in D.C.
was orchestrating Latino immigrant groups to
call out the president to move on immigration
now that Latinos had “elected him.” This is so
very disconcerting. Once again rather than initiate, we demand, we complain, we request we react. Rather than propose our version of
what should be done on the issues of the day,
we demand payment.
This history-making contingency of Latino
members of Congress should begin a serious
and inclusive dialogue within our own large and
complex Latino community on the economic
issues that have historically hamstrung our future. Since we argue that the political establishment does not take such interest, our Latino
politicos should demonstrate how to do it. While
we are at it, we should include the issues of
education, health and crime in our communities.
We should not allow Senators Chuck
Schumer and Lindsay Graham to lead the way
on immigration reform legislation. They are not
solution-driven, they are elements of appeasement! Both members are very far removed
from the realities that are necessary to reach
reasonable and practical solutions. We cannot
afford to approach this challenge from an ideological or political angle.
It is imperative that Latinos lead this debate
with ideas that solve the human suffering, dilemmas and conflicts, unintended consequences that undocumented flows from various countries to the United States cause in this
nation as well as in the countries of origin.
Since we have bitterly pointed out the poor leadership this issue has received from both parties,
since we have long been troubled by the separation of families, abuse of workers and discriminatory treatment of immigrants, we must
set the standard for approaching this complex
issue and not forget that it impacts all of society
in one form or another. We cannot be myopic!
We should be proud of what everyday Latinos
and Latinas did this month. We all participated
in a process that can lead to change. We must
not lose sight of the fact that this is simply the
first step followed by the responsibility to govern. The hard part is making things happen, bringing about the policies that benefit a nation, not
one group. Remember the saying, “Be careful
what you wish for!”
Our wish has come true and we better perform a lot better than those we have been criticizing for decades.

people from throughout southern California to
experience the magical snowfalls at 6 p.m. and
7 p.m. with choreographed music and dazzling
lights. Between the nightly snowfalls, community caroling groups sing holiday favorites as

Aztec Football Accepts Invitation to San Diego
County Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl
The San Diego State football team has accepted an invitation to play Brigham Young in
the San Diego County Credit Union Poinsettia
Bowl on Thursday, Dec. 20 at Qualcomm Stadium and will be televised on ESPN.
The Aztecs defeated Wyoming, 42-28, on Saturday for their seventh consecutive victory to
improve to 9-3 on the season and 7-1 in Mountain West play. The win gave SDSU a share of
the MW title, its 19th overall and first since 1998.
The seven straight wins is the fifth-longest streak
in the country.
“We are honored to be selected to participate
in the 2012 San Diego County Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl,” San Diego State head coach Rocky
Long said. “The Poinsettia Bowl is one of the
best events I have ever been involved with and
it will be a tremendous experience for our student-athletes. Best of all, we will have the opportunity to play in front of our fans and that will
make for a great atmosphere on Dec. 20.”
This will be the 36th meeting between the
Aztecs and the Cougars (7-5) and first since
BYU’s final season in the Mountain West in
2010. SDSU has lost five straight in the series,
which Brigham Young leads, 27-7-1.
San Diego State and the Cougars have played
three common opponents this season in Boise
State, Hawai’i and San Jose State. The Aztecs were 2-1 in those games (won at BSU,
21-19, and vs. Hawai’i, 52-14; lost to SJSU,
38-34), while BYU was 1-2 (won vs. Hawai’i,
47-0; lost at BSU, 7-6, and at SJSU, 20-14).
The Poinsettia Bowl began in 2005, when
Navy defeated Colorado State, 51-30. SDSU
made its debut in the bowl in 2010 against Navy,
where it played in front of a Poinsettia Bowl
record crowd of 48,049. San Diego State’s 6.8
rushing yards per carry tied a bowl record, while
Ronnie Hillman (attempts - 28 and rushing
yards - 228) and Vincent Brown (receiving
yards - 165) each set individual records.
Fans are encouraged to purchase tickets
through SDSU as it will benefit Aztec athletics.

optional
1 tablespoon nutritional yeast or
brewer’s yeast (found at
health food stores)
1/2 teaspoon curry powder,
optional
Caramel Popcorn
6 cups popped popcorn
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon light or dark corn
syrup
1 tablespoon water
2 tablespoons butter
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract
Plain Popcorn
Cover bottom of 3 to 4-quart pan with
thin layer of vegetable oil.
Place 3 kernels of popcorn in pan;
cover with a loose lid that allows steam to
escape, and heat.
When kernels pop, pour in enough
popcorn to cover bottom of pan, one
kernel deep; cover pan and shake to
evenly spread oil.
Shake as popcorn continues to pop.
When popping begins to slow to a few
seconds apart, remove pan from stovetop.
The heated oil will still pop remaining
kernels.
Sprinkle lightly with popcorn salt, if
desired, and store in an airtight container.
Cheesy Popcorn
Follow instructions for making Plain
Popcorn.
When you remove popcorn from heat,
transfer popcorn to serving bowl. Pour
butter over popcorn and toss. Sprinkle
yeast and curry powder, if desired, over
popcorn and toss to distribute evenly.
Serve immediately or store in an
airtight container.
Caramel Popcorn
Line large baking sheet with lightly
buttered foil.
In medium saucepan, combine sugar,
corn syrup and water and bring to a boil.
Cook syrup over medium heat, without
stirring, until amber in color; about 6
minutes. Remove from heat and stir in
butter, salt and vanilla until blended.
Stir in popcorn until coated. Spread
caramel corn in a single layer onto buttered foil.
Allow to cool before breaking into
pieces. Store in an airtight container until
serving time.
Festive Popcorn Trees
Holiday Popcorn Snowman
Yield: 10 balls, 5 snowmen (2 balls each)
1 1-pound package large
marshmallows
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter or
margarine
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
10 cups popped popcorn
Decorations: sprinkles, licorice,
gum drops, cinnamon candies,
cookies, etc.
Melt marshmallows and butter in a large
saucepan. Remove from heat and stir in
vanilla.
Let stand for 5 minutes.
Pour over popcorn and stir.
Butter hands well and form popcorn
into balls.
Decorate as desired.
Yield: 10 trees
10 cups air-popped popcorn
1 10-ounce bag miniature
marshmallows
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Decorating sugar (green, blue)*

medium saucepan over medium-low heat.
Stir until marshmallows are melted and
mixture is smooth. Remove from heat.
Stir in vanilla extract.
Pour mixture over popcorn in bowl.
Toss well to coat popcorn evenly.
Line baking sheet with foil.
Spray hands with nonstick cooking
spray, then scoop up about 1 cup of
popcorn mixture.
Shape mixture into a cone shape,
keeping the base flat. This forms the tree.
Sprinkle tree with decorating sugar;
place tree on baking sheet. Make the rest
of the trees.
Pipe frosting on trees to make a garland, then decorate them with colorful
candies.
Serving suggestion: Place each tree on
a sugar or gingerbread cookie, and decorate your serving tray with shredded
coconut to resemble snow.
Notes: It’s important that this recipe
starts with unflavored white popcorn for
best color and flavor.
*Make your own colored sugar by adding food coloring to sugar, stirring in a
bowl or shaking vigorously in a sealed
container. Add more food coloring for
more intense tones.
