I see how this works...I thought you said you were a conservative, not a martyr...SO, all I have to do to BE civil is accept your denigration and defamation of Chavez and we are being civil...
Maybe you can explain 'civil' to the families of Negri Daifulla and Juan de la Cruz.
No sir. That is how you opted to take what I say.
For example, someone below corrected me on something about Stalin. He did not insult my intelligence nor did he call me names. He did not imply I am a right winger. He simply showed me how I was misinformed.
Being misinformed happens, you know.
My response to him?
I admitted I was not aware of what he said and thanked him for correcting me.
And then I read up on the topic and it confirmed what he said.
It is known as using debate to learn; not to be right.
Sorry if you do not like that about me. But it works for me.
What works for you is constantly talking about YOU?
Only the shallow know themselves.

You are the one who put me in a position to describe who I am. And I deemed it best to do so.
I did it for you so we can enjoy a debate without the hate and name calling.
Yet you still insist on casting the insults.
Sorry if I wasted your time.
You are probably confusing Chavez with Che Gueverra. As far as I can tell the only violence Chavez ever committed was to vegetables. He was a vegan.No sir. That is how you opted to take what I say.

A group of Democratic state lawmakers is calling on the federal government to make the birthday of the late Cesar Chavez a national holiday
Chavez, born March 31, 1927, was a Mexican-American farmworker, labor leader and civil rights activist who, with Dolores Huerta, co-founded the National Farm Workers Association. That group later became the United Farm Workers.
Chavez died in 1993 and is considered a major figure in the Hispanic history of the nation.
State Sen. Nan Orrock (D-Atlanta) and Rep. Pedro Marin (D-Duluth) have introduced resolutions in both chambers of the Legislature calling on lawmakers to support the idea of a federal holiday for Chavez. Eight states already have holidays honoring Chavez, whose work led to numerous improvements for farm laborers.
We need to honor his life, said state Sen. Vincent Fort (D-Atlanta). Like Dr. [Martin Luther] King he was one of the towering figures of the last 60 years in this nation. And we are becoming a blacker and browner state and nation.

Chanel, the democrats know they are losing a block of voters with the Independents, they need to capture another block of voters. I think this has to be one of the most transparent moves the democrats have done since this administration took over.

News Flash..........Hispanic voters will not vote for Republicans
Especially after the "wise latina" debacle for the GOP
I remember when Chavez got his ass beat by De La Hoya.
A conflicting day for Mexicans everywhere.

Chavez was a good & righteous man. Probably put a lot of farmers out of business though. His intentions were honorable though. Not so sure about the Holiday thing.
Yea Chanel, we certainly wouldn't want to honor men like Chávez...we don't need our kids to look up to men that believe in human rights and non-violence. America honors warriors!
CESAR E. CHAVEZ FOUNDATION
César Chávez is one of the greatest labor leaders and human rights activists in the United States history and the world. He fought for a better life for migrant farm workers, and founded the first successful farm workers union. César was the president of the United Farm Workers, AFL-CIO.
César Estrada Chávez was able to accomplish his goals through the philosophy of non-violence that he inherited and followed from leaders like Mahatma Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King.
César read about St. Francis of Assisi, Mohandas K. Gandhi and Dr. King. St. Francis was an Italian monk who lived from 1182 to 1226. He devoted his life to helping the poor. Gandhi was spiritual leader and a non-violence revolutionary who lived in India from 1869 to 1948. He practiced the philosophy of non-violence. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a Civil Rights Leader in the United States. These men profoundly influenced César Chávez, and he realized that great leaders are those who set good examples.
César Chávez adopted and practiced the philosophy of non-violence.

The LEGAL Latinos share many of the ame values as the Republicans. But I don't believe wooing them involves a national holiday. There's got to be a better way. Any suggestions?
