In 2004, Manuel Miranda was forced to resign as an aide to former Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-TN) when a Senate panel found that Miranda hacked into files “from folders belonging to Democratic staff.”
Now Manuel Miranda, is leading the conservative opposition to Judge Sotomayor and at a Heritage Foundation luncheon, Miranda said this:
“Hispanic polls, Hispanic surveys, indicate that Hispanics think just like everyone else. We’re not like African-Americans. We think just like everybody else. When I was on the leader’s staff, someone called me once and asked me: ‘What’s Senator Frist’s Hispanic agenda?’ I said, ‘low taxes, better education, more jobs … what are you talking about?’ And that’s how Hispanics are. This is an opportunity to educate them on all of our issues and they will resonate in the way that they resonate with everyone else.”
