Booty warrior yes. He was ass cheeksHannity claiming he was a gladiator and a warrior.
you can't have it both ways.
Biden is down with latinos.
instant-grab polls like this show him down with latinos.
what more do you want? To wake up on election night realizes Democrats completely wasted their time trying to understand latino voters?!
if Bernie was better at politics instead of trying to die on extremist hills, he'd be on that debate stage.
the man is lucid and clear.
Yall really need to decide if you want to live with your heads in the sand or not.
Latinos are not democrat voters in the long term.
Its OK to just admit that and focus on the base, but democrats are so reluctant to turn towards black voters at the risk of alienating white voters and those who aspire to be considered as white that they just continually kick us down the ladder.

Biden is trending down with latinos. Did you read past the headlines? Hillary was stronger with latinos. Having a lead doesn't matter if its trending down...currrently...in real time... as we speak...
I swear yall are more focused on trying to come down on me, than actually trying to WIN.
High quality poster

Ignore is a strong word.So what are you proposing breh? That Democrats should ignore Latinos.
The ROI just isn't there.
Look at the link @Scholar even posted. I'm not sure he even read it.
Biden is up, obviously, but he's ten points behind Hillary in 2016 this time last cycle with latinos. Thats just something you can't ignore.

Biden still trails Hillary Clinton’s support on the eve of the 2016 elections. She had 79% support among Latino voters then, according to Latino Decisions, which conducted the poll.

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden holds a significant lead over President Trump among registered Latino voters, garnering 62% of support, compared with Mr. Trump’s 26%, according to a new Wall Street Journal/NBC/Telemundo poll.
The survey finds Mr. Trump’s support among Latinos to be roughly in line with his standing in 2016. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton won 66% of the Latino vote, exit polls found that year, while Mr. Trump received 28%.
About 12% of Latino voters remain undecided this year, the new survey finds.
The Journal/NBC/Telemundo poll includes some warning signs for Mr. Biden: Mr. Trump’s favorability among Latino voters has improved from four years ago. In September 2016, 78% had a negative view of him, compared with 56% today.
Mr. Trump’s best opportunities to build support among Latino voters appear to lie with men and older voters. While 30% of the Latino electorate approves of Mr. Trump’s job performance, 34% of men and 36% of Latinos age 40 and older approve.
“Certainly, men are definitely an important segment where Trump tends to fare better with Latinos than other segments overall,” said pollster Aileen Cardona-Arroyo, who worked on the survey. She said that “Biden has an opportunity for improvement there.”
By comparison, 27% of Latina voters approve of Mr. Trump’s job performance. Among the Latino electorate under the age of 40, 24% approve.
The survey of 300 Latino voters was taken Sept. 13-16, before the death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on Friday introduced a new factor into the presidential race. It was conducted by Democratic pollster Jeff Horwitt and Republican Bill McInturff.
The results come as Democrats in some swing states have grown increasingly concerned about Mr. Trump making inroads among Latinos in swing states such as Florida and Nevada, where Republicans have been portraying Mr. Biden and other Democrats as socialists. Polls in these states have shown Mr. Biden underperforming among Latino voters compared with Mrs. Clinton’s 2016 support.
Mr. Biden visited Florida for the first time as the party’s nominee last week, giving a speech that largely catered to the Puerto Rican population in Kissimmee to mark National Hispanic Heritage Month.
He acknowledged to reporters during his trip that he had more work to do to win over Latino voters. “Look, what I have to do is make the case why it will be so much better for the Hispanic community, the Latino community, if in fact Trump is no longer president,” he said.
Compared with registered voters overall, Latino voters in the survey reported a lower level of interest in the election. Some 67% rated their level of interest at a 9 or 10 on a 10-point scale, compared with 80% of voters of all races and ethnicities.
The poll also shows the economy to be a top issue for Latino voters. Those surveyed gave Mr. Biden only a slight edge on the issue over Mr. Trump, with 39% saying the president would be better at dealing with the economy, compared with 41% who said Mr. Biden would be better.
Mr. Biden holds wide leads on other top issues, including on handling coronavirus, addressing the concerns of the Hispanic and Latino community and treating immigrants humanely.
Mario Mendoza, 28, said he is undecided in the election. The Florida resident considers himself a Democrat, but he said he likes Mr. Trump’s handling of the economy. “I have seen my 401(k) grow in these past four years a lot,” he said.
Mr. Mendoza, who is Mexican-American, said he didn’t vote in 2016 because he didn’t like either candidate, but he plans to vote on Election Day.
Arnoldo Rodriguez, 65, a Texas resident who plans to vote for Mr. Biden, said the virus and health care were at the top of his mind. He said he thinks Mr. Trump has made the coronavirus a political issue while playing down the crisis.
Mr. Biden, he said, “has been very clear that he will listen to the scientists.”
Mr. Rodriguez, who is Mexican-American, said building on the Affordable Care Act is an important issue for him. “Trump is trying to kill the ACA. We need insurance programs, especially for retirees,” he said.
The poll also found that the majority of Latino voters plan to vote before Election Day, with 31% saying they would vote by mail and 23% saying they would vote early in person. Some 40% said they would vote on Election Day.
The margin of error for the Journal/NBC News/Telemundo survey was plus or minus 5.7 percentage points. The poll was also in line with previous WSJ/NBC data between January and August of this year, which averaged together found Mr. Biden leading Mr. Trump, 61% to 29%. It didn’t break down results based on country of origin.
In my first post I literally said he is doing worse than other dem candidates with Latino support.Ignore is a strong word.
The ROI just isn't there.

However, your point was this means the dems should give up on trying to build Latino wider Latino support because the “ROI” isn’t there.
Makes no sense. Why would you willing give up on the fastest growing demographic grow because your current candidate isn’t doing as well in reaching out to them as prior candidates? If dems want to win in the future they will need the Latino vote. Shifting demographics makes that obvious. Failing to build that support will be a major L

I say have one open audience debate (where I think Biden will really shine), then cancel the 3rd one.
