Latinos don't not like Obama, they just don't know who he is, while most of them know full well who the Clintons are and like them.
Yep. BTW, Obama carried Latino's in Virginia. Granted they were only 5% of the Democratic primary electorate but they broke for him. But then most Virginia demographics did
He won them in Illinois but not overwhelmingly so, which suggests he, rightly or wrongly, has problems with Latinos relative to Clinton

Latinos are I would argue the hardest working americans and especially in the west they make up most of the working class. Racism may have something to do with Latinos not voting for Obama but I realize its more because they know and trust the Clintons and fit in perfectly with their core constituencies. Latinos are more likely to be poorer, working class, less educated etc....
You have a point there, actually. However, I don't think that's the entire story since I *believe* Clinton's margins among Latinos have been higher than one would expect given the demographic break-down.
