Rooney -- Washington Dispatch -- September 3, 2003 Race, California's Final Solution ...There's a reason Bustamante won't repudiate his old club-he doesn't want to lose the racist vote. He knows there are plenty of Anglophobes out there who would drop him in a Mexican minute if he were to turn from them. Consider this: There are as many as 300 MEChA chapters nationwide, 100 in California alone, and many of these chapters are in our high and even junior high schools! God help America! |

-- August 27, 2003 Bustamante under fire for involvement in racist group Critics are wondering why Lt. Gov. Cruz Bustamante, who is running to be governor of California, hasn't renounced his association to a little-known Hispanic organization that they say is as racist as the Ku Klux Klan. -- "Joining MEChA was a right of passage just like if a black student joined a black student union. And if you didn't join, you weren't Chicano. The question is why hasn't he renounced it now. It is racist organization," said radio talk show host Larry Elder. |

Rush Limbaugh --
August 21, 2003 Bustamante Fondled Racist Group, Terms In the audio and news link below, I share a story headlined "Who's Cruz?" in Wednesday's Investor's Business Daily. It makes me wonder when the mainstream media will explore Cruz Bustamante's background, record and views. The paper calls Bustamante "the most famous unknown candidate in the race," and cites two stunners about the Democrat. [Audio link on page - 5 min., 23 sec.] |

Elected
to Congress on November 5, 2002 Arizona, meet your new Mechista Congressman Arizona congressman-elect Raul Grijalva is a former MEChA member, according to a 1997 article in the Arizona Daily Wildcat. Did voters know that Grijalva is or was involved with an anti-American seditionist organization? Will he denounce MEChA now that he's headed to Washington? Will he represent MEChA interests or the interests American people when he gets there? -- Grijalva also isn't happy about "civilian patrols" whose members are seeking to deter illegal immigration, and is in agreement with meddlesome Mexicans that an investigation is needed.

-- Jim Sparkman - November 19, 2002 More Reporting on MECHA at U.C. Berkeley. Disturbing Juan Carl Leal Solis, writing in the Cal Patriot, gives us another disturbing look at the MECHA group at U.C. Berkeley. This revolutionary group gets funding from compulsary student fees, and seems to fly in the face of the university authorities. Or, even more disturbing, MECHA peddles hatred and prejudice with university approval. |

The Road to Aztlan
Radical politics have been part of the game on American campuses since at least the mid-1960s but have recently taken a new and disturbing turn. At colleges and universities across the country, the Movimiento Estudiantil de Chicanos de Aztlan (The Student Movement of Aztlan Chicanos) - better known by its acronym, MEChA - is calling for the surrender of wide swaths of American territory to Mexico.SDSU's Samano: Flag incident shows America's bias (9/23/02, Daily Aztec - SDSU)
...One could argue that calls were made because of the positioning of the flags -- the American flag below the Mexican flag -- but I would argue that it was simply because "Old Glory" wasn't hanging alone.
