Latino's help elect Barack Obama in more ways than one
As you move through the various cable networks, you hear the experts say one thing that helped Barack Obama get elected...Latinos!!!!
The Latino vote made a difference in New Mexico, Nevada, Virginia and where else Florida! Most of the Latino vote in 2000 and 2004 went to George W. Bush, but this time it was about CHANGE! Eventhough we liked McCain's stance on the issue of Immigration, the Economy issue overshadowed everything.
Michelle Obama also got a little help for last night's historic speech. Her dress was designed by famed Latino designer Narciso Rodriguez. READ MORE

CELEBRITY ENDORSEMENTS FOR PRESIDENT
(CLICK ON IMAGE TO ENLARGE)
The Democratic convention is done and this Monday the Republican week begins and we want to know what's important...Let's get the celebrity endorsements! Oprah, DiCaprio, and Ben Affleck for Obama and Sly Stallone, Clint Eastwood and Arnold Schwarzenegger are for military veteran John McCain. Even Latino stars are getting in the action Don Omar for Obama and El Cangri for McCain, Jessica Alba for Obama and Erik Estrada for McCain. What is really the purpose for celebrities to get involved in politics? Does this hurt a celebrities' fan base? Whatever the case, we see celebrity endorsements as a way to feel knowledgeable of current issues and of course to get free publicity. While many celebrities are enjoying summers in St. Tropez, flying around in private planes, and hanging out in ridiculous huge trailers on movie sets, we'll see more celebrity endorsements for politicians and green initiatives.

Daddy Yankee endorses John McCain for President
Daddy Yankee endorses John McCain for president as they both appeared at a rally at Phoenix’s Central High School in Arizona.
Daddy Yankee met McCain at a reception honoring Time Magazine’s most influential people, which both made the list.
Senator McCain is a fighter for the Hispanic community, Daddy Yankee said. When a NY Times reporter asked Daddy Yankee what “Gasolina” really means, the star smiled and said, Energy independence. Good answer!! We guess the support is good eventhough Daddy Yankee can't vote since he was born in Puerto Rico.
