Latinos And The Clintons

Why should Latinos vote for Hillary. She was a major contributor to President Clintons appointment and hiring practices during their dual presidency. In those eight years. only Energy Secretary Federico Pena and U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Bill Richardson were appointed. I do not count that traitor to Latinos Henry Cisneros. Cisneros was indicted by a federal grand jury in 1997 on 18 felony counts that included his failure to tell FBI agents about payments he made to Medlar. Medlar used some of the Cisneros hush money to purchase a house and entered into a bank fraud scheme with a sister and brother-in-law to conceal the source of the money. In January, 1998, Medlar pleaded guilty to 28 charges of bank fraud, conspiracy to commit hill.jpgbank fraud and obstruction of justice. A federal appeals court denied Cisneros’ request to dismiss the charges on March 9, 1999. Throughout his ordeal, Cisneros continued to receive the support of the Clinton administration.

So the only qualified Latino Clinton could find to run HUD was an educated criminal. And they defended that crook until he decided to resign. In September 1999 Cisneros negotiated a plea agreement, under which he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor count of lying to the FBI, and was fined $10,000. He did not receive jail-time or probation. He was pardoned by President Bill Clinton in January 2001. What a great role model for Latinos. Good thing Alberto Gonzalez and Scooter Libby were treated as fairly.

( It got so bad that in 1997 A coalition of more than 30 Hispanic civil rights groups criticized the Clinton administration for what they said was a low level of Hispanic representation in the federal workforce, especially at the executive levels. And these weren’t Republicans. Rep. Esteban Torres, D-Calif., said at a press conference that Latino representation among federal employees has dropped to a new low. “Talented Latino men and women continue to knock at the door of the administration for an opportunity to serve their nation,” Torres said.The Hispanic leaders said they were especially concerned about the number of Hispanic executives in government, particularly those subject to political appointment.

In September 1996, 2.2 percent of the Senior Executive Service was Hispanic, according to OPM. Of the 689 presidentially-appointed sub-Cabinet posts, 5.6 percent were filled by Hispanics. That is significantly less than the high of 8 percent earlier in the Clinton administration, the coalition charged. Manuel Oliverez, President of the National Association of Hispanic Federal Executives, which represents 2,000 Hispanic federal managers and SESers, said this is the first time this issue has been publicly raised at this high a level}.

So Democrat Latinos had to get together and complain that the Clintons didn’t care about the same Latinos who helped get them elected. Well that’s just great. And then she has the mitigated gaul to come to miami to even open her mouth after the treatment the Cuban community in Miami received when the Clintons invaded Little Havana and tried to execute Waco part 2. They have no credibility with Latinos after helping that child become a hero prop for Fidel who may even be groomed to be a future leader in that corrupt Communist Vacation Paradise. In 1993 the heads of several national Latino organizations acknowledged that few jobs of any kind have been filled in the slow-moving appointment process. Yet they were concerned - in some cases angry - about the small number of Latinos on short lists of potential nominees for more than 1,000 top administration jobs.“The Latino community has not had its fair share” of appointments, said Lydia Camarillo of the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund.

Here at Cyber ink we are concerned about ALL Latinos in positions of power whether Republican or Democrat. But we will not stand for a repeat of the Clinton years when the only attention they ever paid to Latinos was to send American swat teams to Miami and storm an American families house with the lack of respect we know she harbors for Latinos.
