Latina candidate barred from appearing on the ballot.

Raise your hands if you’re up for swapping it out for Puerto Rico…

Incidentally, I do not understand why the secret service did not tackle and handcuff this woman IMMEDIATELY! And then deport her… *whistles*

The state that just keeps giving.

Governor signs law to eliminate “ethnic studies classes” in Arizona schools.

A Republican running for attorney general, Horne has been trying to restrict the program ever since he learned that Hispanic civil rights activist Dolores Huerta in 2006 told students that “Republicans hate Latinos.”

District officials said the program doesn’t promote resentment, and they believe it would comply with the new law.

About 1,500 students at six high schools in the district are enrolled in the program. Elementary and middle school students also are exposed to the ethnic studies curriculum. The district is 56 percent Hispanic, with nearly 31,000 Latino students.

Schools to reassign teachers who speak too “immigranty.”

The Arizona House of Representatives recently approved a provision requiring President Barack Obama to prove that he is a natural-born citizen before the state agrees to place him on the ballot in 2012. He must have his birth certificate approved by the state’s attorney general in order to run in the next election.
The provision was added to a separate bill in a 31-22 vote. There is still a formal vote that must occur for the provision to pass. Democratic Rep. Kyrsten Sinema says that the bill is making Arizona the “laughing stock of the nation.”
