With the Puerto Rican Democrat primary Sunday, Barack Obama and his followers are pulling out all the stops to play to the Latino community (which is way more than Rican). This means speaking Spanish like in Obama’s latest commercial. I think he did pretty well. What do you think?Appealing to the Rican/Latino vote means music and famous people.

I asked where all the Latinos for Obama were especially since the media has it like Latinos are all for Hillary Clinton. But wait a minute? Don’t some of the clips look the same as a video clip we saw almost three months ago with a few more Latinos like Paulina Rubio and Alejandro Sanz thrown in and a Latin beat?
Ok ok, let’s be fair, the new Podemos con Obama video put together by acclaimed music producer Andres Levin features an impressive Latino celeb roster. Let me get them all in here:Alejandro Sanz, Don Omar, Paulina Rubio, John Leguizamo, Kate del Castillo, Jessica Alba, George Lopez, Voltio, Lin Manuel Miranda (current double TONY Nominee for In The Heights), Andres Levin and his Yerba Buena band-mates CuCu Diamantes & Pedro Martinez, Luis Guzman, Lila Downs, Frankie Needles, Huey Dunbar, Carlos Marin (Il Divo) and family, Sabina Sciubba and Didi Gutman of Brazilian Girls, Nydia Caro, Ivonne Caro Caro, Carola Gonzalez, Viva Nativa and Jose Alberti.

Are you a Latino for Obama?
Why or why not?
I’m still waiting for a Latinos for McCain video. Hmm? Anybody? (I better not hold my breath)
