Latino celebrities pressure Hispanics to vote against Trump, Cruz, Bush, and Rubio

Latino celebs: vote against all Republicans

A group of two dozen Hispanic celebrities have united behind a common cause, stopping Latinos from voting for the Republican candidates for president: Donald Trump, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Sen. Marco Rubio (Fla.), and Sen. Ted Cruz (Texas).

Celebrities including George Lopez, Audrey Plaza, America Ferrara, Zoe Saldana, Carlos Santana, and Benjamin Bratt signed onto a letter by a left-wing watchdog group People for the American Way.

The letter begins by bashing Trump and Cruz as a xenophobes that have been fanning the flames of hatred against the immigrant community.

"Trump is certainly an outlier for his racist remarks. But the rest of the Republican presidential candidates went off the deep end with him," the letter detailed.

The group didn't only target the Republican frontrunners, but also Bush and Rubio who are moderate to liberal on the issue of immigration.

They attacked the former Florida Governor for using the term "anchor baby" and being opposed to granting full citizenship to all illegal aliens. Equally the group blasted Rubio for not supporting citizenship and walking away from the Gang of 8.

Dolores Huerta, a PFAW board member and co-founder of the United Farm Workers, said to Rolling Stone Magazine that the group has no problem trying to stop Hispanics from voting for Cruz or Rubio, the would be first Latino president.

Ironically the People for the American Way was co-founded in 1981 by immigration restrictionist, former Rep. Barbara Jordan (D-Texas.)

Jordan was the first black congresswoman elected in Texas and one of the biggest proponents for reducing legal immigration and deporting illegals. The Barbara Jordan Commission on immigration reform was thought of so highly that President Bill Clinton signed on to the idea of reducing the waves of immigration from Mexico and Central America.

Now the organization founded by Jordan has betrayed her legacy and the American workers she fought to protect.
