Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

A new history reveals how the rise of the Latino vote has redrawn
the political map and what it portends for the future of American
politics. The impact of the Latino vote is a constant subject of
debate among pundits and scholars. Will it sway elections? And how
will the political parties respond to the growing number of voters
who identify as Latino? A more basic and revealing question,
though, is how the Latino vote was forged-how U.S. voters with
roots in Latin America came to be understood as a bloc with shared
interests. In The Rise of the Latino Vote, Benjamin Francis-Fallon
shows how this diverse group of voters devised a common political
identity and how the rise of the Latino voter has transformed the
electoral landscape. Latino political power is a recent phenomenon.
It emerged on the national scene during the turbulence of the 1960s
and 1970s, when Mexican American, Puerto Rican, and Cuban American
activists, alongside leaders in both the Democratic and the
Republican parties, began to conceive and popularize a pan-ethnic
Hispanic identity. Despite the increasing political potential of a
unified Latino vote, many individual voters continued to affiliate
more with their particular ethnic communities than with a broader
Latino constituency. The search to resolve this contradiction
continues to animate efforts to mobilize Hispanic voters and define
their influence on the American political system. The
"Spanish-speaking vote" was constructed through deliberate action;
it was not simply demographic growth that led the government to
recognize Hispanics as a national minority group, ushering in a new
era of multicultural politics. As we ponder how a new generation of
Latino voters will shape America's future, Francis-Fallon uncovers
the historical forces behind the changing face of America.
