Latinos 08 | Election | Hispanic Heritage Month | PBS
Duration: 00:37
Latinos defy many of our ideas about what an ethnic group is and how it behaves. Latinos 08 examines these new Americans through the prism of the 2008 presidential election: How are Obama and McCain trying to attract these unpredictable voters? And how is the immigration debate complicating their efforts? Latinos 08 sheds light on an important part of our American future.
