Because of the lack of education on AIDS discrimination fear panic and lies surrounded me.
The Hispanic community values entrepreneurship and family-owned businesses and we deserve a leader in Washington who is dedicated to creating an environment where our values our goals and our dreams of prosperity can become reality.
With unemployment still abysmally high the Obama economy is crushing Hispanics' dreams for their children to live a better life.
As the first Hispanic female governor in history little girls often come up to me in the grocery store or the mall. They look and point and when they get the courage they ask 'Are you Susana?' and they run up and give me a hug.
I think that was a moment of cool panic there.
On the political front of course it's a zero-sum game. If it's all white males holding positions you bring 10 women in then it's 'Women are coming!' Get 10 blacks and it's 'Blacks are coming!' 'Hispanics are coming!' Zero-sum game. The seatmates might change but the chairs don't move. In the economy the number of chairs can actually increase.
Rarely in modern times has there been such a revolution in commercial sentiment as occurred in 2008 or such a display in government and business of panic and helplessness.
No community values entrepreneurship and small business more than the Hispanic community.
I'm really busted up over this and I'm very very sorry to those people in the audience the blacks the Hispanics whites - everyone that was there that took the brunt of that anger and hate and rage and how it came through.
As the plane got closer to Miami I had this terrible feeling he was dying. Maybe he was telling me that he was going. I felt anger panic despair and helplessness.
I am at that age when you panic at the slightest thing.
