CNN

People should recognize that Obama's campaign is being respectful to Latino's by speaking to them in their own language. This is not pandering it is called Communication. Puma and other Clinton supporters are Idiots...

I am an immigrant and will vote for Obama because mcsame and republicans are scary, anti-immigrant and think that everybody who has an accent is here illegally. Not surprisingly, majority of immigrants and first time American voters like myself will vote for Obama, – a candidate we can indentify with, and who was not brought up on a silver spoon laced with beer..

Americans against the Mexican invasion should oppose BOTH of these utterly worthless traitors seeking office. Both want the borders wide open and to replace Americans with Mexicans.

You guys are showing your true colors.

Pandering to the illegals.

Nice.

Francisco in NY July 23rd, 2008 12:44 pm ET

I fail to see how WhamBama will support the spanish community. His first and foremost priority will be to his black constituents. He only wants our votes. Wake up people – do not support him !!!
----------–

Wakeup yourself! If this is was true, then I guess McCain's priority will be to continue to support the interests of the rich just like the Bush administration. So where does that put you???

Lisa Same empty promises!!! ........Lisa I put your name on the prayer LIST!!!!

PUMA ........KMBA !!!

Obama 08

Latinos would be crazy to vote for MCCAIN. Agreed Obama has not done anything for latinos but neither has MCCAIN. Obama is still the less of two evils.

Debby, NJ July 23rd, 2008 3:32 pm ET

Why is it that all the so called Pumas, Conservative and Repubs insist that OBAMA will not do for the Latino's?
If you all will do some research you may learn that Mcshame has done nothing for them…check out his home state record.
DO SOME RESEARCH YOU DO HAVE A COMPUTER…MORONS !!!

BARACK THE VOTE !!!

Debby, NJ you must be on DOPE McCain has done more for Latinos than Obama so do your research about Latinos People. By the Way McCain won 75% of the Latinos votes in Arizona!!! so you must be smoking weed!!!

Latinos for McCain!!!

I find it incredibly hard to believe this is the first time ever that any presidential candidate put out a Spanish-language television ad.

Is putting out English television ads pandering to English-speakers?

Veronica from nj July 23rd, 2008 1:37 pm ET

Bilingual Barry, speaks one language BEFORE sleazing off with a nomination that he did not earn and does not deserve and then starts speaking another language AFTER he sleazed off with a nomination that he did not earn and does not deserve.

If we enable this clown any further, then we'll have only ourselves to blame.

Kris from AZ July 23rd, 2008 12:41 pm ET

Educated and what do you know..not born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Obama 2008!

He always has to reclarify himself not surprising he needs a re-release a radio address.

Why is it that all the so called Pumas, Conservative and Repubs insist that OBAMA will not do for the Latino's?
If you all will do some research you may learn that Mcshame has done nothing for them...check out his home state record.

So, you "immigrated" to Michigan from Puerto Rico? You mean you "moved" right? Puerto Rico is a commonwealth - are you really from PR?

"Latinos para mccain"...speak for yourself ...smart latinos are for Obama...

OBAMA ALL THE WAY TO THE WHITE HOUSE!

Pumarie:
You are fortunate to live in a country where you are free to express your opposition when your candidate still loses in spite of her strategy of tempering self-pity with self-entitlement. In some places in this world, you would lose your hands to a machete for voicing such opposition. Did you happen to read the CNN article detailing the brutal abuse endured by Bosnian women under Radovan Karadzic?

There are many people in this world who would love to live the life of a vile, bitter Hillary Supporter in the United States of America.

I received an email from Hillary yesterday and she's still fighting for women's rights.

Freida...im an american citizen..born in Uruguay and my whole family and all my friends are voting for Obama...AND SO AM I!!!

OBAMA 08 BABY!!

Can't stop gagging....
Americans, for the most part, just don't see it. This puppet has been used for the liberal leftists agenda. He's simply not qualified.

GAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG Never Obama.

Latinos are a proud people but we dont like arrogance...

Viva McCain

Looks like many of you have not read Mc Bush`s economy plan – or you are wealthy and healthy ! Good luck .

If Latinos believe that McCain will support them because he lives in Arizona, they will be sadly mistaken.

Whatever pro-Latino sentiment McCain held has been swept away as he has tried to move to the right to appease Rush, Hannity, and Ann Coulter.

And, if he wins, don't expect anything from the Republicans until 6 months before the next election.

Joke or more obfuscation?

“Obama never forgot his roots” he just left his, missing in action, Kenyan, Muslim father on the cutting room floor in "take two."

Give it up, and grow up Obama. You are wasting your many advantages with your arrogance and egomania!

Pandering will not cut it! Americans are smarter than you think!

McCain 08!

Im Hispanic and I'm voting for Obama. My whole family is actually.

Michigan Hispanics for Obama '08!

Must be pandering to the 57th state.

Our Latino friends are way to smart to vote for this man!

McCain/Santana/08

Correction:
Hmm…The same people who want to create doubt by placing emphasis on Obama's middle name refuse to extend hospitality to Latinos… even those names "Jesus".

no achievement, no record, thin resume. The only thing left is himself - his family, his daughters, his great uncles, his parents, his grandparents. What else haven't we heard?

Obama is confused with the fact that electing a president is to serve the country not to make him a symbol for admiration. His ego is to explode soon,and the MSM bias is to backfire!

Annoy media, no obama

What are they hiding???

Hmm…The same people who want to create doubt by placing emphasis on Obama's middle refuse to extend hospitality to Latinos… even those names "Jesus".

sabes que? no me gusto obama porque el es un mentiroso.
my parents taught me to accept all people regardless of the color of their skin. martin luther king jr. said he he wanted his children to be judged by their character rather than the color of their skin.
obama attends a racist church for 20 years...and all of the sudden asks for votes from all races? i don't think so!
it amazes me how little people know about obama. have you listened to him try to answer questions? (UH, DUH, UMM, DUH, UH)... he is not the brightest crayon in the box and his ignorance will eventually catch up with him. if he ever agrees to attend town hall meetings the american public will finally get an idea of just how challenged this man is.

Pander, lie, pander lie, we see your m.o. now Nobama. You cannot fool all the people all the time. Too bad for you.
McCain 08

Ah... bi-lingual pandering.
Just what we need in the White House.
Heard enough, America?

NO-Bama EVER!!

"He grew up without a father — raised by his mother with the support of his grandparents. Through student loans and hard work, he graduated from college."

not quite sure where people get "ELITIST" from THAT story. but my heart goes out for them for how truly horrible their lives must be if obama's story is ELITIST to them. YIKES!

it's just another example of stupid americans who believe whatever rush and FOX tell them, without doing any thinking of their own!!

anyone who relies on FOX "news" and all of the other repug media SHILLS for their information should lose their right to vote!

Latinos are not familiar with Obama. They are familiar with the Clintons. He needs to get out and campaign long and hard in the "barrios" as Hillary did. Once they get to know him and see that he is sincere and caring of their struggles, they will warm up and support him. LATINOS UNITE AND VOTE DEMOCRATIC !!!!!!!!!

TO ALL WHO ARE UPSET THAT THE AD IS IN SPANISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ALL CANDIDATES .....BOTH REPUBLICAN AND DEMOCRAT......... DO A SPANISH SPEAKING AD!

DON'T YOU REMEMBER BUSH ATTEMPTING TO SPEAK IN SPANISH DURING THE 2004 ELECTIONS??????????????????????????

GIVE IGNORANCE A REST WILL YOU?!

Obama Obama Obama Obama Obama Obama Obama Obama Obama ObamObama a Obama Obama Obama Obama Obama Obama Obama Obama Obama Obama Obama Obama Obama

Go Obama we love and need you as our POTUS

Immigration reform is a business proposal. The guy is an idiot.

This is the definition of pandering

Obama, Latinos Will Not vote for you.

You have repeatedly changed your opinion on immigration issues and your website is completely misleading. You have absolutely no experience or a clue about Latino issues. McCain has repeatedly supported and spoken out for Hispanics in the military and other immigration issues.

Most Americans will not be fooled by a smoke and mirror politician saying anything he can to be elected.

Hispanics for MCCain.

As a Latino voter, one of many I know, that most of us are now backing Sen. Obama. In my family we were split between Hillary & Obama.

We KNOW that McCain is pandering to Latinos, trying his best not to be too excited about the fence being built! And we KNOW, that the majority of the Republican base calls "illegals" immigrants that are not documented. We KNOW whose side McCain is on, though sometimes we all wonder.

McCain can not talk out of both sides of his mouth, he is either a moderate and a maverick or he is a conservative.

He can't wink at Latinos, and wink at the far-right-extremist whom he needs to support him.

He is playing both sides, hope someone notices!

Obama is TOO GOOD for america!...the republican bigots should be proud that we have a better choice than some old twig McSame they are offering for a replacement of one of the most unintelligible president in the history of the united states -Goerge Dubya!

Obama '08/'12!!!!!

YES WE CAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He told us if we wanted to stay in america we needed to speak spanish

Between this and saying sunni insurgents in irak are trained by iran before being whispered by liebermann,, my choice is clear !!!!

hey Mc OlderBush .....White house is no retirement house

I like pickles but I don't speak spanish so I eat kosher dills. Obama's pretty cool, he speaks spanish I guess.

the more he talks, the better McCain looks...and they haven't even had a debate yet...too much pressure on a first time U.S. Senator..

Apparently the ad doesn't get accurate enough to include the fact that his white maternal grandmother was a bank vice-president in Hawaii when he lived with the grandparents.....and Obama certainly wanted for nothing then. In fact, he was able to attend a prestigious and expensive high school in Hawaii.

Get truthful, Obama!

Was for Hillary, now for McCain!

PUMA

I am a Democrat Latino that will for the first time vote for a republican.

A Hillary Supporter for McCain!

LATINOS vote against arrogant Barack Hussein Obama!

SO...how many ILLEGALS will vote of Obama???????
The man will say anything to get elected....
OH..isn't that what everyone said about Hillary? At least she didn't STEAL others ideas for CHANGE....
Obama has not an a decent ORGINIAL idea yet....
SO, I guess a vote for Obama is a vote for--Hillary, McCain, Romney, Paul and every other canidate that ran in this Presidential primary......
WHAT A FAKE OBAMA IS.....................

why does he release a commercial in a language he cant speak, read or, write?

This MAN is the MAN the world want to see as President of the united states.

Hate him, insult him, but he is who he is BARACK OBAMA.

"even if you don't like the horse...at list admit that he can run fast"

Barack Obama – our next president...

Awesome ad!

Down with McBush!

Barack the VOTE...

Watch for the BARACKTOBER Fest coming to a town near you...!!

Yes...>WE<...Can...

Obama es un payaso, el no es por los latinos

Would you rather have a president who was handed everything he got, or one who made a life for himself through his own hardwork and sacrifice? Not only does Obama have the better policies and judgment, he also shares my values in this regard. That's why he gets my vote.

Hispanos are faithful... Hillary or McCain. No bama on our plate.

I certainly think that Obama will be a better friend to the latino community in America than John McCain. Obama has also made some sensible points about the border fence – the fact that the physical fence cuts a Brownsville University campus in half shows you how poorly executed the plan for a fence has been so far...

THe Hispanic community will understand and recognize that Senator Obama is an average politician that makes customized promises of change everywhere he goes in order to get the votes of that community.

His actions proved that he does not care about achieving or meeting his goals as the asbestos project he was involved in in Chicago shows.

Obama is moving to the center now and will sacrifice his positions with the ledt wing of the Democratic Party to appeal to the center and some right wing voters.

Is this the change we want: It is not. We do not want this arrogant person in the white house.

Please bring back Hillary Clinton

For immigrants, Obama brings up his father. For veterans, he brings up some Uncle reference. It is like an actor trying to be in all roles of movie. So much for 142 days of Senate expericence. It is strange media is casting him as the big-shot.

We are a nation of immigrants and we need Obama now!

Great ad, Does not bicker or attack the other campaign, just states the facts.
McCain Camp could learn a lot from OBAMA:
according to them, who's responsible for gas prices? Barack Obama, really, Is he also responsible for foreclosure crisis and the bank failures and the IRAQ war? Please enlighten us old wise McCain.

It interests me how Americans find fault with change when we live in a society that's constantly changing, at head of most other societies.
If they felt the add didn't hit the most relevant points and corrected it, why should that be an issue? How many of you out there don't say things and change your mind later when conditions change.

How many of you haven't said I love you to someone and then later said, it's time to move on when things didn't go well?

Why do you keep criticising the politicians when the change or modify things that they said before? I am particularly referring to the recent bashing of Obama that he's now shifting from his 16month Iraq timetable...if situations don't allow for what he had planned earlier and he's willing to accommondate for it, why should that be perceived negatively?

Obama es numero uno! Smart political move for the Obama campaign.

Please, stop the "pandering", for Latino votes; they will vote for the democRAT.I promise you that! Use that ad money, for something else...............................Its," in the bank"!

I guess that I'll have to learn spanish in order to know what it says.

Barack the Vote!

Why is this guy campaigning in europe?

McCain 08!

Beautiful gardens grow from huimble seeds.

Heart transplant for 50 million illegals and free housing stamp food free gas free child care free maternity and make sure all illegals women making a lots babies and hard working americans pay all so...just vote HIM a man from south side chicago.

why liberal soft with the rapes and criminals

I hear the sound of pandering footsteps – they are getting louder and louder – DUMP OBAMA – Write-In Hillary Clinton as President

Why do we have people in this country who can not read, write, or speak English, yet they can vote?

It seems that every race has a voice and as a plain old white person ,I'm feeling really left out because I don't have any ethnic wounds....Poor me.....can't complain !!!!!

Doesn't John McCain's actions remind you of the Mr Magoo chracter? Yes, John Magoo hasn't a clue!!! LOL!!!!

what ever !! Cali Latinos for McCain !!!

puma is un-american

latinos for Obama!!!!

Speaking of fathers, why is it John McCain points to his mom as evidence of his longevity, but we never hear anything about his father?

The Latino population is growing steadfastly and each eligible vote will make a difference. According to several reports, circa 2050, 29% of the population will be Hispanic. T

Those who advocate learning Spanish or another foreign language are absolutely right. The face of the nation is changing and the necessity for interaction with a multi-lingual world goes without saying.

On the local level, a very recent press release from NYC's Mayor Bloomberg's office states the following: "Language Access Executive Order Requires City Agencies to Improve Customer Service by Providing Translation and Interpretation Services for All New Yorkers.
Agencies to Provide Services in Top Six Languages Spoken in New York including Spanish, Chinese, Russian, Korean, Italian, and French Creole".

Bueno!

November can't get here soon enough!!

I been saying all along that OBAMA is not for the Latinos Community. He had to correct thye first Ad with a second poor OBAMA. Latinos open your eyes and ears i been saying we latinos can smell a RAT Miles away. Don't trust obama at least we know that John McCain is a true patriotic American Hero. Obama has never done anything for the Latinos Community. The only thing is has done was be a Community Organizer that it!! Nothing for the Latinos NADA. El no es para los Hispanos Nunca hecho nada para los Latinos!!! eso es la verdad. Por los menos John McCain hizo mucho para los Latinos!!! y el si es para los latinos!!! obama es un RATON!!!!!!

Vote for John McCain 08 Hispanic for McCain!!!

Obama, Obama, Obama. So sick of only hearing about Obama!

Obammy is a pandering fool.

PUMA

McCain 08

Same empty promises!!!

These CNN stories and blogs provide an excellent means where ordinary citizens can state erroneous information, and give opinions.
This story is about radio ads about Barack Obama is an excellent example of this. Error Number One: Oft repeated but completely erroneous is the fact that he was raised by a single mom, with some help from his grandparents. Truth: After Obama's father left when he was 2 years old, his mother took him to Indonesia where she married again. Obama lived with her and his stepfather until he was 10 years old. He then went to live with his grandparents in Hawaii, where he stayed until he graduated from high school and entered college. Error Number Two: It has been said that Obama worked his way through college. Truth: This was refuted last week when it was learned that he only had one or two menial jobs during this time.
I'm always grateful when others point out errors about the two candidates, Obama and McCain.

Barack Obama reminds me of the fellow who killed his parents and then threw himself upon the mercy of the court, pleading that they should be lenient because he was an orphan.

Does the ad also say that Obama is promising that US citizens will be paying for the healthcare of all the illegal immigrants currently in the United States. His healthcare plan includes them too.

Pandering again.

Hey Obama folks,

Latino voters respect their families and their elders. We never throw our fathers or grandmothers under the bus. And we specially respect elders (McCain) for their wisdom and courage.

Hillary we need you.

Raised by his "Adopted Mother"... There is no DNA proof... Father/him left East Africa 1963-4, headed East across the Indian Ocean,and They finished up in theEast Indies.. What happened then is the Mystery..

Latino for Obama we are all in it.

Hispanics take a close look at your brothers and sisters in Arizona, the state in which John McCain is Senator, and see how they have been hurded up like cattle, jailed and bused back across the border. Check it out for yourself and then make an informed decision before voting for McCain.

Thanks to Obama,even law breakers will get AMNESTY and criminals in the White House will get a pardon.What a nice Law and Order guy.I wont vote for John McCain and this guy is close to losing my vote too.

no news here

Obama supporters can wear the latest in political fashion chic: pajamas that feature the Obama 'O' logo.

They're called ... Ojamas. There is no McCain equivalent.

I understand that Mr. Obama is ashamed that I don't speak Spanish. Well, I guess I can live with that.

And the thing that is so powerful about this ad....

EVERY WORD OF IT IS TRUE.

que bueno!

Too many promises and overcommitted. Obama should get real and understand the culture (e.g., Mexican) and hardships that many of Hispanics face. All those emblems and half pronounced Spanish words makes me vomit. He is a rock-stra want-a-be President. He is fake and transparent.

This is one Hispanic that will NEVER vote for Obama!

And I haven't talked with anyone who plans on voting for him!

What a Joke-he does not connect with us at all!

McCain 08

Come on CNN...are you telling me that this story was posted at 11:00 and almost 2 hours later ther haven't been any comments? Yet, a story posted 45 min. ago about Novak running into a bicycle rider has already received 20 comments. What's going on?

Yeah, let's do let people make their own way rather than having the government dictate their lives. Vote McCain!

Si se puede!
Vamonos '08 con Obama.

Is he running for President of Mexico?

This is a joke! Where do we live, Mexico or the United States of America?

Our language here is English and NOT SPANISH! Give me a break. All that Obama is doing is pandering for the Latino vote. WE DON"T need a inexperience, no skills, no talent or anything else that makes him qualified to be our next President.

I would like to see that at the convention, the delegates would see Obama for what he really is, LACKING EVERYTHING THAT IS NEEDED TO BE OUR NEXT PRESIDENT, and decide to vote for Hillary Clinton, who is qualified to be our next President.

If Obama or the Democrats want to win in November, then they need to make sure that Hillary Clinton is ON THE TICKET with Obama,

Hillary Clinton/Obama 2008

Good for you Obama. Remember your roots. I immigrated to Michigan from Puerto Rico when I was a little boy.

Obama is what the U.S.A. needs. He represents the country.

Obama '08.

The truth is a powerful thing. There is more to unite us than there is to divide us.

It will not make a difference among the Spanish or the Hispanic community. I am 1/2 Spaniard and 1/2 American, and I can tell you none of my friends or family members feel comfortable voting for BHO. I understand that having a good level of confidence is important for success, however; Obama is acting way too "cocky." I may consider voting for him only if Hillary is on the ticket.

Hillary 2008.

I fail to see how WhamBama will support the spanish community. His first and foremost priority will be to his black constituents. He only wants our votes. Wake up people – do not support him !!!

Good for you Obama

That is all most of us want, but some people just do not want others to be equal or succeed in life.

Senor Obama el apoyo del mundo Latino esta contigo!

Educated and what do you know..not born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Obama 2008!
