This.

Theyre quiet, humble, hard-working and family-oriented. So they don't get grossly over-represented like some other people I know.

Seriously, Hispanics make up 18.3% of the US and I rarely see one, while blacks make up 13.4% and you’d swear by watching television we live in Zimbabwe.

HA!

Watch First 48 sometime. Talk about over-representation.

Being a white dude married to a Mexican, I think it is ridiculous how Hispanics in general are not represented. Usually on tv, Hispanics are either gang members or play a 'maid'. My in-laws spoke to their kids in English, so my wife doesn't have an accent. Funny, my French grandparents spoke English to their kids, so my dad didn't have a strong French accent. But on tv, blacks are in at least 90% of commercials! You would swear whites are not allowed to have over 3 people without a black along with them! Meanwhile, Hispanics are excluded. Here in Houston, Hispanics are everywhere and do everything- car technicians, construction workers, waiters, cooks, plumbers, even secretaries! Texas would shut down without Hispanics, yet I never see them on TV...something is wrong with this!! And more than you think are conservatives, non-Democratic!

EVEN SECRETARIES?!
