Hispanics have no role models

Made at the spur of the moment regarding the fact that Hispanics in the United States don't really have many people to look up to compared to blacks.

GOD bless you!

I'm not trying to diss my own people. If you check my other videos, you can see that this is hardly the case. I'm just trying to make a point here on a issue we have. Constructive criticism is more like it.

I'm also of Colombian ancestry and the way you using the word "Mexican" seems derogatory. Not cool yo.

Obama kinda stands for the people, hes not going to really play favortism as long as he is President. Besides with him having a white mother, he will never fully understand the real struggle that Blacks and Latinos alike face. He's going to succumb to the white folk as well.

[BlasianChineseBoy]

I can't deny that Latinos never really had a role model, but there was a time where Latinos were protesting for their rights in this country as well as Blacks. Most Latinos have been in America as along as Africans have some extending over 300 yrs ago, but alot of them didn't really have a voice and were afraid to step out. Black people may have had strong leaders, but look what happened to them. Malcolm X was killed, and MLK jr. was killed. What Black leader do we really have now? Obama? Nah...

The hispanic culture can not be "looked" up to thats the reason for no hispanic role models..Your culture doesn't allow for that to be successful. If everything is about getting laid and something to eat. The women are desperate trash-thats not interesting. I cant speak for the media in your homeland but US media does not and has not found hispanics interesting+it cannot be taken seriously=zero hispanic role models..well i take that back theres alway "george LOPEZ" on late night TBS ...enjoy :)

[sempsuno]

I understand where ur commin from. People do forget who they are soon as they start growin up here in the states.  I think the only dependable role models we have are our parents. Hard work and dedication to the family is something to look up to. Que no?

[freeqwerqwer]

No role model? Who is Cisnero?

Hispanics do have role models. For instance, when I used to play basketball back in high school my role model was Michael Jordan. As of now, I admire Dennis Prager, he's a Jewish, and he has become my role model even to the point of changing intrapersonal beliefs of mine. My mother, for instance, is my role model. The thing about your video is that it does not matter the color, religion, background, etc, of your role model. What truly matters is attitude, personality regardless of ethnicity.
