10. Chiquitita, welcome to DU. Latinos and other minorities ARE the Democratic Party now

This is the essence of our modern party. Latinos are working from within to make sure issues affecting all communities are front and center. The entire party is dedicated to building a stronger America where everyone has opportunity. The types of policies that the Democratic Party advocates help everyone.

I think the idea that Latinos believe that the Democratic Party doesn't care about their issues is a falsehood that's being propagated right now. The election proved this out.
