Special event, the Vice President ial debate tuesday at nine story. Im Anderson Cooper. There are five weeks left until the election and the race remains extremely tight, especially in the critical Swing States, winning some of these states could come down to one key demographic, the Latino Vote. Latinos are the second largest and fastestgrowing group of voters in the United States. The majority of them have historically voted for democrats thats but a growing number of latinos have become republicans. And many now support former president Donald Trump. Cnn political contributor, Ana Navarro is a republican whos now supporting Vice President harris in this race. Recently spoke at the Democratic National Convention shes been one of trumps harshest and most outspoken critics in the next hour, she travels across us to see for herself while trump appeals to Latino Voters, in which issues matter the most to them in this election much maam we keep hearing about the Latino Vote. This mythical Latino Vote. At any given moment, any News Channel youre bound to hear about the Latino Vote and a lot of times, its not latinos talking about it. Its Talking Heads in washington or New York, not exactly the communities that are going to make or break the election i think the Latino Vote could be crucial to deciding these elections and i wanted to hear it from actual latinos is being latino . Part of your identity i think youre looking at it now you glad this is The One And Only puerto rico heights. Lord miranda, how do you describe yourself . Puerto rican and libin call yourselves routines. I say latine because It Running Saltine and i like it mexican care for my lane. Im cuban until the mariachi is come out coming come into chat as house where she sporadically lets me live from 1923. Its called old spanish, which is a very typical Architecture Hearing old Miami Miami is a place where there is a little about theres a little managua, the capital of nicaragua theres Dora Sweater theres Little Haiti theres so many factors that go into defining each latino for whom they are, and who youre going to vote for, and see an eye projects, Donald Trump will carry the state of florida with its 29 electoral you see how . Well im doing with hispanic theyre going we have, a 96 Approval Rating with Cuban Americans night 96 not under estimate the job and the work that republicans have done with latinos that trump has done with Cuban Americans and in South Florida in particular, hes been very good micro targeting certain pockets and certainly one of them was where were standing right now, Miamidade County i dont like trump, but i recognize that he worked hard at getting this community all these signs, cubans for trump, cuban. I think they felt like a favorite class at paid off. You paid off much of a Melting Pot we have a lot of communities that have developed around different waves of immigration. Very refugees or led off to the Coast Guard buildings. The original exiles, where the cubans, they came in 1959. And through The 60s that Original Wave Of Cubans who fled castro, who fled communism when i think of trump, he reminds me of a lot of things that ive seen in some of the strong man in Latin America that we all fled from the attacks on the free press. Look at all the fake news the warning to tear up constitution and stay in power Theres Something about the strong man that appeals to our idiosyncrasy in some ways. And its what we grew up with. Men dont cry, men dont show softness, dont show compassion, dont show emotion. Thats kinda ingrained into latins from the moment were born. And i think they see that Toughness And Bravado and they equated to leadership in trump very vulnerable about being on camera without Hair And Makeup have you asked me what am i . I would tell you im a Hyphenated American im a like, oh rawan, american. I feel very latina. I feel very nicaraguan, i feel very much a miami girl ive been raised here since i was eight 1980, which was a year of a lot of Turmoil And Action in miami because it was the same year as the Mariel Boatlift it was the year when a bunch of nicaraguans, like me were fleeing the sandinistas, it was a year there were a lot of Central Americans were fleeing because there were civil wars and then it got our conflict bled into el salvador, honduras. Gotta rigger, there were a lot of problems in venezuela, in panama my parents tried to protect me as much as they could from what was happening outside. But they were trying to still give me the life of a normal little girl. There was a bunch of immigrants coming into the u. S. And at that time, a lot of them are settling in miami we fled. I Ronald Reagan do solemnly swear and that coincide in 1980 was also the year when Ronald Reagan Got Elected president of the united States Year was good looking eloquent cow boy Ronald Reagan defending the Freedom Fighters and standing up against communism while they preach the supremacy of the state they are the focus of evil in the modern world not only was he standing up against communism that i fled but he also was the guy responsible for giving me us residency incidents, session the immigration Reform And Control act of 1986. Of course, i was a Ronald Reagan republican theres little corner is like the altar to the now defunct republican party by Villa Republican all my life, i worked on republican campaigns that was John Mccains national hispanic chair. I supported Jeb Bush so what i am i . Im a woman. Im a latina im nicaraguanamerican. Im a miamian. Im an activist im also fully american. Some people may not like it. Some people may not agree and now, because im antitrump, all of those people who were part of my social circle, political circle, call me a communist and call me a socialist, me who fled communism. I get called the communist would you call yourself a never trumper . No, i never refer to myself as i never trumper because i just dont want to be defined by this guy i call myself a disgruntled republican at this point i think im kind of like a woman without a party in my family. Theres division, theres people who are very supportive of trump we have to learn to coexist. We have got to learn to coexist. Doesnt mean that i will ever agree but im im interested in listening good. You had a model possible to be more capable and more practical perform and hear, make, a state barely making his own.

From mexico were starting here, because theres been a significant shift in politics here the Rio Grande Valley is 90 latino its a microcosm for whats going on in america were on our way to meet up with ed lavendera, cnn correspondent, whos been covering this region for years and years good ascii ahead of majdal, yum Vinita Gupta Word thing and get me out of this truck. Nobody told me there be exercised so good to see you so where are we . We are near the little city called harlingen. And this is a really massive Area Kind of a quiet place, right but because of immigration in the last ten years this places really been put on the map so what brings you here today . This has been a very, very strong democratic area for the state recent years, weve actually seen republicans making inroads down here trumps trumpspecific or do you think its the republican party thats a hard question to answer. I think Donald Trump and the republican party probably combined we interviewed a gentleman named roberto escobar, whos a farmer. He lives in a little community near roma, texas lets go bodies his family is from that area for century as Roberto Vocal about his politics hes been vocal for awhile the Bush Family it turned him into a republican years ago he describes himself as hispanic american, but he doesnt have that identity that you and i had kind of really speaks to how difficult it is to kind of pinpoint the Latino Vote and the latino identity for you know, its a beautiful view in it it never gets old right now, its very quiet, calm it almost looks nice but at night, displaced comes alive and you dont want to be here thats my grandmothers house, is abandoned now, but i grew up in there with my grandma what kinds of problems have you had, with smugglers here on the property one evening, i was coming from The Field of driving a tractor and i could see one window was little so i knew that there was legally so when that happens, does it bother you to be like anybody walking into your house and stealing something from you. I feel yes, to some degree, invaded the way Donald Trump talks about it. Yeah. Youve got rapists and killers and people straight out of an insane asylum passing through your property. But the way you describe it, i dont really feel like you get that sense. No, because those people dont start here never has anyone of them, the migrants knocked on my door to tell me, can i have a glass of water or can you please give me 20 Bucks i wonder is ever bother me as were here talking, youre going to hear the roar very here in a couple of seconds. I think were about to see my guess its either a Dps Airboat or its a Border Patrol Airboat sight every day. Oh, yes. To three times a day its just part of the scenery down here yeah. Its interesting though, because i describe it as Ground Zero for the immigration issue, right here. Were at the border and you say that for some of these people, like rupert, thats not the driving issue. This is a farmer who lives on the border migrants pass his house weekly. Hes had runins with cartel members carrying ar15 teens on his property and i think at the end of the day, what drives him the most is economics you think democrats or republicans are listening enough to Latino Voters thats a good question. You know i think the democrats are doing a better job of getting to securing the Latino Vote. Interesting what are you doing with all my Tax Money . Im not eating properly in my home because im giving all this money. Do you What In The World are you doing with my bucks it makes me angry that they squander so much both sides. So was it local democratic politics that turned you off or was it national more than, more than anything, local democratic policies but im going to vote for trump this time around is there such a thing as i Latino Vote writ large no, not at all. Down here. Youre going to find latinos who work in the Oil Field our hunters. So theyre more open to gunrights so to Paint Everybody with a broad brush is impossible and probably like dereliction of duty if youre involved in politics. So later today, were going to go meet with pastor luis go Data Chao of the living the pasture of an evangelical christian church. How much does religion and politics intersect here . You just kind of watch the changing dynamics of the religious culture here along the border. And protestants have made big inroads into what has generally been kind of a catholic area and i think its a huge, huge deal welcoming us to your church much i didnt realize we have this in common. You were wanting, to get. Our correct my father was involved with president , so mahsa in his 70s and when they over to the government, we fled, hurts america tell me about the Remnant Alliance so the Remnant Alliance is a team of organizations around the country and to have come together to work with pastors and to help them get engaged, i guess, culture. See you want the church activated in politics, in culture, cultural issues and folks exactly what the generals of the faith with a generals in the governors and the leaders of our community we have a similar story of coming here. You are republican your entire life. I am too, but you are very pro trump. Im not. So tell me, what am i missing i dont want to say how pro trump as a christian, i vote for him because hes the only one that aligns with my biblical values and morals. The Guy Us support for precedent had children with three wives what youre talking about his past does the fact that hes a convicted felon now matter at all to you . How do you align that with your biblical values is not perfect. But that was his past. We all have a past. Do you have parishioners who disagree with you politically . I probably do, but they dont tell me voice. Im not a republican. Im a man of god. Im a christian. Im and im back thats sort of christ. But you do work in politics in a certain way because you have no issue using your puppet to get your parishioners to lead to vote while we are waiting for elections. Got his waiting for his, lead this country is founded on the separation of church and state. Do you think thats wrong no, no, no. As the church as an entity, we have every right to tell any political figure, any Business Owner if theyre living wrong, thats our job. Thats my job. So youre not calling from the pulpit for people to vote for trump no, but i mean, i i would say it. I have no shame butter. I mean, i would tell people yes, vote for trump passes. We need a, we need to get out the vote hey, Guess What happened she won because of a church and where did two years ago. And when i helped might have floridas when that special Election Night of floridas republican congresswoman who won a seat that had been held for over 100 years . Yes. By a democrat than you were instrumental in passing and i got to honor the baptized are her this election . Oh, im looking for the church to rise up like never before. Im looking for not a red wave. Im looking for a wholly wave im looking for are righteous wave. Why is the Church Silent Today . Why i have free speech and so that as a church, we have a voice to people come here, they want answers. I dont want chriss not to vote. And then when they do vote, they what they vote the wrong way to go guys know weve got a vote according to what a god. We dont need to make America Great. Again, we need to make America Godly again 60 days out. What are you Guys Hearing . And South Florida and miami this was the Highest Rated oprah Winfrey Show of all time. Were still talking about it.
