ESPAÑOLA — There was an atmosphere of an old-fashioned Rio Arriba County political rally Tuesday at the Plaza de Española, where former President Bill Clinton came to campaign for his wife, Hillary Clinton.

There were lots of Democratic politicians, several of whom spoke before the former president took the stage. There was much talk about how the Clintons care about towns like Española and working families, and how New Mexico does better when there is a Democrat in the White House. There was also talk about how Hillary Clinton doesn’t play to racial prejudice — like a certain presumptive Republican presidential nominee does.

Bill Clinton himself played upon most of these themes in his half-hour speech.

Praising the diversity of his audience, he said one thing he likes about coming to Northern New Mexico is that “I get to see our friends the Sikhs with their white turbans. It reminds me of how fortunate we are to live in a country where everybody is entitled to be treated like human beings.”.........................

2. Interesting...Hillary campaigned for Pres Obama in Espanola in .....

....But she has been to Española. In 2008, shortly after she conceded the Democratic presidential nomination to Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton campaigned for Obama at Northern New Mexico College.
