California became a state in 1850.Read the facts in the August issue. I've included graphs which visuallydemonstrate the points.This may be the year, a 166 years later to finally have a US Senator whowill expess the Mexican/Latino/Hispanic perspective. We have a strongcandidate in Loretta Sanchez.In 2016, our country is experiencing one of the most dramatic nationalelection of the centuries. Both parties are troubled to their foundation bythe demands of the American people to put the power of their vote back intotheir hands. Clearly Hillary Clinton and Jeb Bush were being pushed by theirparty machines, the old established in-siders vs the new faces of outsiders.I want to present to you the facts of another, to me equally as important,or possibly historically eventually will be viewed as an even more importantCalifornia race. Barbara Boxer, California's US Senator office is retiring.Under the Constitution, members of the United States Senate may serve anunlimited number of six-year terms and members of the House ofRepresentatives may serve an unlimited number of two-year terms. It is avery politically powerful position. Barbara Boxer served 10 years in theU.S. House of Representatives from 1983 to 1992, before being elected USSenator in 1993.Two well qualified candidates, U.S Representative, Loretta Sanchez andCalifornia Attorney General Kamala Harris are running for the office. Sanchez has twenty years experience serving in the US House ofRepresentatives. However Sanchez is little known outside of California andis the party outsider, because Harris is a good friend of the president, whois campaigning for her with all his resources and those of the Democraticparty.Sanchez was born to working class parents. Sanchez's mother is a teacher inthe Santa Ana School District. She told me, she earned a teaching credential, while raising her family. "I wanted to set an example. I was going to school, while they were going to school." Harris life was one of privilege, the daughter of a black StanfordUniversity professor and a South Asian Indian physician mother.So much neglect, injustices and confusion is explained by this historicallymonumental absence of a Latino presence in the US Senate. After reading the historical evidence in the August issue of Somos Primos, Ibelieve that all Americans, in fairness, will agree that Latinos inCalifornia, in the Southwest, and nationally have not been historicallypresented, and will share the information with primos and friends, no matterwherever they live. Please voice your support for Loretta Sanchez and ourhistory.God bless America, Mimi-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --Nuestros Ranchos General Mailing ListTo post, send email to:general(at)nuestrosranchos.orgTo change your subscription, log on to:http://www.nuestrosranchos.org
