"Time Is Running Out" for the nations of the world to reach the goal of Education For All by 2015. Education is a basic human right. This effort reminds us all of the value of education, especially for girls and women. The wise ones say: "When you educate a girl, you educate a family". Poverty and its effects on a nation, are the results of not educating a girl. Can we as a global society afford not to educate all the citizens of the world?

Racism hurts us all, MANKIND in all its sizes, shapes, colors, hues, genders, cultures, national origins, religions, ages, etc. How long? How long will we tolerate racism? Until it poisons yet another generation of Americans? Or will this generation stand up collectively to overcome RACISM, the greatest single obstacle to Peace, Equity and Prosperity for all the citizens of the World??? Tolerance and Understanding of diversity must replace our current climate in which Intolerance, Apathy and Fear of the Ot

2004 DNC: "There is not a black America, a white America, a Latino America, an Asian America. There's the United States of America!"

I was deeply moved as I watched this. This was an awe inspiring, profound speech that went beyond a simple endorsement. We saw Chris Dodd endorse Obama, that was an endorsement. This was a Vision for All of America, an America that truly is "E Pluribus Unum - Out of Many, One"...

Bill Richardson endorses Barack Obama, March 21, 2008

"Sometimes we say things with great confidence, only to find out that we are speaking the wrong language.

That's happening to Hillary Clinton right now. She is talking the language of experience, hard work, traditional Democratic values, and the rough and tumble politics that has come to dominate Washington.

The problem is that is not the language in which many voters are listening. Their mother tongue grew out of Obamaland. Or, more accurately, he arrived in their universe speaking the language they

"We are in a defining moment in our history" ... "Our nation is at war. The planet is in peril. The DREAM that so many generations fought for feels as if it's slowly slipping away. And that is why the same old Washington textbook campaigns just won't do it. That's why telling the American people what we think they WANT to hear, instead of telling the American people what they NEED to hear, just won't do it." "America, OUR MOMENT IS NOW," ..."I don't want to spend the next year, or the next four years, refig

"Hope! is what lead me here today! With a father from Kenya and a mother from Kansas and a story that could only happen in the United States of America! I Have a Dream! (MLK) I got a dream, we gonna work it out...

America, NOW is our time, for our generation, to work it out, to end division and separation and embrace unity and togetherness in the pursuit of our common interests as citizens of the United States of America, together, indivisible, out of many, one....

A little love for Barack Obama en our second language.

A lot of Latin voters will cast theirs in Texas, Pennsylvania and Ohio and beyond.

si se puede!

Hispanos, Latinos, Todos -- Si Se Puede Con Obama! Ya Basta Lo Mismo de Los Clintons y Los Bush. Es Tiempo de Progresar!

Hispanics, Latinos, All of Us - Yes We Can with Obama! Enough of the Same from the Clintons and the Bushes. It is Time to Move Forward!

WE are the Ones!!

By Barack Obama Last fall, Latina Lista sent an invitation to the major presidential candidates of both parties to "blog" on Latina Lista as a way to address our readers. As the campaigns are regrouping after what can only be described as a successful night for both of the Democratic frontrunners during the Super Tuesday elections, one Democratic candidate, who has yet to address Latina Lista readers, decided to forego some sleep and contribute a post. By now in this campaign season, Senator Barack Obama is

Los Angeles singer songwriter Andres Useche presents his video tribute to Barack Obama for the latino community - Si Se Puede (Yes We Can) ON WEBCASTR.COM

This video came about for one reason: I have a family member currently on a second tour of duty in Iraq. You will forgive me, but for me, that is the most personally relevant issue in this campaign. Iraq.

Considering that Hillary Clinton has decided to attack Barack Obama by using fear, it is good to know that Bill Clinton said in 2004 that it is better to vote fo someone who's message is hope over fear.

"Now one of Clinton's laws of politics is this. If one candidate's trying to scare you and the other one's trying to get you to think, if one candidate's appealing to your fears and the other one's appealing to your hopes, you better vote for the person who wants you to think and hope."

It's 3AM. Your children are sleeping. The red phone rings in the White House. Who do you want to answer the phone?????

Hillary attacks Obama with the Canadian NAFTA story:
This is typical of Senator Clinton Campaign implying that something sinister took place! Specially now, on the eve of Texas, Ohio, Vermont and Rhode Island Election Day! This incident is untrue and despite that she managed to make it look like an international incident! She really lacks the wisdom to first discuss it with party leaders and first confirm the story. If this is the result of her international diplomacy experience she is proud of we won%u201

Ave Maria

(Pavarotti sings in Latin)

Ave Maria
Gratia plena
Maria, gratia plena
Maria, gratia plena
Ave, ave dominus tecum

(Bono singing)

And strength is not without humility
It's weakness, an untreatable disease
And war is always the choice of the chosen who will not have to fight.

2 weeks before Congress voted for war in Iraq. Barrack Obama opposed it.

The film of that speech has been lost.
Except for the 13 seconds that follow.

We must come together, in unity, not racial division, to effectively confront the challenges of our generation. America is our country, it belongs to all of us, and we must claim it, together, as one nation, indivisible, out of many, one - E Pluribus Unum...

Barack Obama major speech. Choose unity and togetherness as an effective means of confronting the monumental problems confronting America. Divisive racism defeats all of us, for only together, unified in our mutual destiny, can we meet the challenges of our generation...

ABC's Sunlen Miller reports: The Obama campaign has issued a response, via a paper statement by Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton:

"Everything in those mailers is completely accurate, unlike the discredited attacks from Hillary Clinton's negative campaign that have been rejected in South Carolina, Wisconsin, and across America. We look forward to having a debate this Tuesday on the facts, and the facts are that Senator Clinton was a supporter of NAFTA and the China permanent trade treaties until this
