Old article but it appears that Breitbart.com will be going after Julian Castro, they fear him

already.

Julian Castro: A Radical Revealed

Castro wrote fondly of those early days and basked in the slogans of the day. “‘Viva La Raza!’ ‘Black and Brown United!’ ‘Accept me for who I am—Chicano.’ These and many other powerful slogans rang in my ears like war cries.” These war cries, Castro believes, advanced the interests of their political community. He sees her rabble-rousing as the cause for Latino successes, not the individual successes of those hard-working men and women who persevered despite some wrinkles in the American meritocracy.

This is another reason why I back him early because the right wing only attacks candidates they perceive as a threat to their right wing lunacy.

Fuck Every last one of you right wingers and your racist bullshit. La Raza is a civil rights organization who engages in community activity. They help poor people of all colors.

I am not about to tell them how to improve their prospects. Nope.
