From: A Concerned Reader

Black Congressman Charlie Rangel (D-NY) faces a Hispanic primary challenger and a young black candidate who is siphoning off votes. Rangel is still leading by 12 points. See

Rangel on Primary Opponent: 'What the Heck Has He Done Besides Saying He’s a Dominican?'
In his first televised debate with primary challenger Adriano Espaillat, Rep. Charles B. Rangel, D-N.Y., snapped at the state senator who if elected could become the first Dominican-American in Congress, saying, “Just what the heck has he done besides saying he’s a Dominican?” Rangel is seeking his 23rd term in the House of Representatives.

This is another example of Hispanic Hype. [VDARE.com note: Immigration or no immigration, Rangel will stay in office until actually convicted of something and imprisoned — the district he represents is Harlem.] But this is buried in the stories because Rangel is so liberal and not the most upstanding member of Congress.[Nancy Pelosi And The Black Caucus — The Enablers of Charlie Rangel, By Michelle Malkin on July 29, 2010]
