Los Republicanos: Why Hispanics and Republicans Need Each Other

by Leslie Sanchez

Hispanics comprise one of America's largest business-minded, faith-based, culturally-conservative entities--and their numbers continue to grow. Long assumed to be aligned with the Democrats, Hispanics have been ignored by many Republicans.

Outstanding!

Los Republicanos is right on target! Finally a book that specifically highlights the issues our culture faces today. As a conservative Hispanic American, I applaud Leslie for sounding the alarm on these critical issues that impact our community. The clear warning for the GOP -- and their rhetoric on immigration risks driving Hispanics away and jeopardizing the Republicans' gain the last eight years should be an eye wakening experience for the Party. I think Leslie is an articulate, smart, educated woman who obviously knows her market and her "stuff". You go girl!

Powerful argument; fascinating insight

A powerful argument in favour of the alignment between hispanics' social and political culture and the conservative movement. Leslie Sanchez writes with verve and insight; if she's right hispanics will be a vital (in both senses of the term) part of the conservative movement for decades to come, and seriously dent liberal chances of a long-lasting demographic and political realignment.

Viva Leslie! Viva Los Republicanos

This is the first book of its kind. It documents clearly why the conventional wisdom about Latino-Americans is wrong. Anyone who wants to understand their behavior in the marketplace or in the voting booth MUST read this book.

Invigorating!

Los Republicanos is the dynamic byproduct of a first-rate political dynamo named Leslie Sanchez. I have met Leslie in person and I've seen her on television commentating on controversial issues such as comprehensive immigration reform. Los Republicanos was written with a masterful stoke insofar as it captures delicate contextual and cultural nuances while driving home hard-hitting pragmatic politics. I highly recommend this book if you're the type of person who shuns the rhetorical echo chambers and embraces honest dialogue.
