CNN-Telemundo debate in Texas: on Families & Children


Marco Rubio: Hispanic values: Burning desire that kids have it better

We have to move past this idea that the Hispanic community only cares about immigration. It's an important issue because we know and love people that have been impacted by it. But, I'm going to tell you that the most powerful sentiment in the Hispanic community, as it is in every immigrant community, is the burning desire to leave your children better off than yourself and, you can only do that through free enterprise.

Ted Cruz: Hispanic values: faith, family & patriotism

The values in our [Hispanic] community are faith, family, patriotism. I campaigned the same here in Houston or Dallas as I did in the Rio Grande Valley, defending conservative principles, telling my father's story of coming to America with $100 dollars in his underwear, not speaking English, washing dishes, having hopes and dreams for the American dream.
