Beyond satire: The Sotomayor Senate Hearings

The second day of Senate hearings for Judge Sotomayor had a couple of moments so loaded with irony, they could have been satirical skits. Unfortunately, what they represented was hardly funny.

Senator Lindsey Graham, a Republican from South Carolina, berated Judge Sotomayor for her now infamous "wise Latina" comment, saying "they would have had my head" had he made the same comments. These words came from a senator whose state still flies the Confederate Battle Flag on the Capitol lawn and wher… Continue

Distinctions that defy logic

The terms Christian and Catholic define mutually exclusive groups in the minds of many in the United States. On closer examination, this is an odd distinction. In common parlance, “Christian” is the accepted term for Protestant denominations, especially those with an evangelical bent. Catholics are somehow excluded from being “Christian.” Yet the Catholic faith can trace a direct lineage to the church founded by the apostles of Christ. Ironically, many U.S. Catholics have come to accept the dist… Continue

Very eloquently stated Raul. Congratulations on your 2008 Latino Book award for Best Novel! The first of many awards to come for your book as well as a future screenplay, I am sure.

The scenario described in your book trailer is very real and should be considered when developing current "large" government policy. Unfortunately, if we do not look out for ALL and provide opportunities to prosper "We the people" will be with face to face with socialistic idealism sooner than we think.

Raul,
It is my pleasure to meet you and I also wanted to thank you for accepting my invite. I read that America Libre will hit the stands in early 2009, I was wondering what you were doing in the PR forum to publicize your book. Will you get the exposure you deserve? I believe Utopia Communications can help you create your brand and get you National Attention. Especially with our new democratic administration!! Yours is a voice that should be heard Nationally!

Dear Raul,

While I apologize for my lateness in answering your mail, it is never too late to say thank you for all the work you have accomplished in the battle to give immigrants a voice.

It is always stimulating to hear your views and observations about immigration.Your website, Myimmigrationstory.com sheds important light on immigrants and their challenges regarding the unfair immigration law in the U.S. I have also read your entertaining and fast moving novel, America Libre, and highly recommend all members of NSHP to pick up a copy. It is an honor to have had you as a guest on my radio show, En la Linea con El Arana. We look forward to having you on the air with us again soon. I want to suggest a minimalist approach to immigration reform as a more palatable alternative in the face of nativism. What I suggest is the Immigration Technical Corrections Act of 2009. Technical corrections would include ammending Sec. 245(i) from Apr. 30 2001 to Apr. 30, 2010. The technical correction of the position of one digit would allow between 2 and 4 million undocumented residents to become legal. Additional suggested corrections will be posted on my website www.elarana.com in the near future. Thank you once again for your ongoing committment to the immigrant community. Pieter
