Notification from Freedom Folks, quote from Mark Krikorian at NRO (emphasis mine):
Actually, this is more like transnationalism. A reader alerted me to the fact that McCain's "Hispanic Outreach Director" is the same guy who held that job for Mexico's President Vicente Fox! U.S.-born dual citizen Juan Hernandez was in Fox's cabinet as Director of the Office for Mexicans Living Abroad and is notorious for having said of Mexican Americans on Nightline on June 7, 2001, "I want the third generation, the seventh generation, I want them all to think `Mexico first.'"
Does McCain agree with this? Has he offered Hernandez, a former high-level foreign government official who presumably swore an oath to uphold the Mexican constitution, a place in a future McCain Administration?
That's not a rhetorical question.
In case you want to know a little more about who Juan Hernandez is, I wrote this in my article Mexico's Plan For America, almost two years ago:
*****
Indeed, President Fox and his advisers are already reaping the fruits envisaged by the Plan. They have appointed as special liaison to Mexicans abroad a man who is a case study of the hazards to America of tolerating dual citizenship.
Born in Fort Worth, Texas to an American mother and a father from Guanajuato, light-haired, blue-eyed Juan Hernandez traded his job running the Mexican-American studies program at the University of Texas-Dallas for a more exciting post in the Mexican cabinet selling Americans the idea that all Mexicans are good, and the more Mexicans the better.
Interviewed in Mexico City, Hernandez said recently:
I think these Mexicans who are crossing the border to the United States, legally or illegally, are the new American pioneers. These are wonderful people. They would not be risking their lives for better jobs if they were not. (The Boston Globe, MEXICO OFFICIAL PUSHES POSITIVE IMAGE OF MIGRATION June 13, 2001[Pay archive])
Since taking his new job, Hernandez has been lobbying hard for full amnesty for all Mexicans already in the United States illegally and for guest-worker programs to export still more Mexicans to the United States. He spins Fox's proposals as a "win-win" for both countries, claiming that they are not simply a safety valve for Mexico and that American acquiescence would alleviate most problems at the border.
[...]
Recently, through Hernandez, the Mexican government signed an agreement with LULAC to work together on issues of interest to Mexicans in the United States. High on the list, of course, is the continued wrecking of American immigration laws and their enforcement.
This formal political pact between a sovereign foreign government and a domestic American special interest group has drawn not a peep from any U.S. official.

Juan Hernandez is supremely confident, even cocky, in recent U.S. op-eds and television appearances. On June 7th, 2005, in USA Today, he said what is all too obvious to anyone who will pay attention:
"Mexico knows where it wants to go even more clearly than the United States knows where it wants to go."
That evening, on Nightline, he made it even clearer for us:
"We are betting that the Mexican-American population in the United States ... will think Mexico first."

McCain has appointed "Mr. Mexico First, Amnesty For All" himself to his staff. What place has he been promised in a McCain Administration??? Inquiring minds demand to know.
