Clinton Leads Hispanic Vote in Univision Poll
Poll: Clinton tops Bush, Rubio among Hispanic voters for 2016
That's enough for a substantial lead over Biden, who holds a 58-21 percent favorability rating.
Rubio, meanwhile, carries a narrow 31-29 positive favorability rating. Some four in 10 probable Hispanic voters, though, say they don't know the Florida lawmaker, who has helped push for comprehensive immigration reform in the Senate.

(30,058 posts)It appears Hillary has been in front for some time with black Americans though many try to tell them she has not been an advocate for years on issues affecting black Americans. She will continue to push for their issues and is willing to do so.

(11,573 posts)that Hillary and Bill spent some of their time as in-the-field activists in South Texas registering voters. It was at the same time La Raza became a prominent force in the area. They're remembered here with great affection, and there's a deep on-going loyalty..

(51,508 posts)Her proposals to protect voting rights are the strongest and would be the most effective of any of the candidates.

(11,573 posts)an elderly woman gave Hilary a rosary she had had especially blessed by the local bishops on both sides of the Rio Grande. She explained that, then put it in Hillary's hand. "Para ti, señora Presidenta,"
And a lot of people found out that you can cheer and cry at the same time.

(9,494 posts)It's not just that we need their numbers to win. We need them to bring their unique perspective and energy to our candidate. When their agenda is all of our agenda, the United States will be a better country.

Not among black Americans only but also among women of all colors because she cares for their wellfare and education.
Among middle class because she has concern for their wages that hardly keep them armed to fight the cost of commodities.
Aamong common Americans who are worried for their safety due to free use of guns and she is out to impose a control on this slavish use.
Among almost entire nation that has apprehension toward external intrusion possibly by anti-American elements.
Among all those who are impressed with her personality, her education, worldwide reputation, contribution as the senator, valorous services as the secretary of state.
