WASHINGTON, July 13, 2004 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Senator John Kerry has debuted a Spanish language ad aimed at New Mexico Hispanics, touting himself as “un hombre de fe,” a man of faith, according to an Albuquerque Tribune report. Although the advertisement does not explicitly state his religion as Catholic, the religion of nearly all Hispanics, it does claim that he was an altar-boy and that he considered the priesthood.
“John Kerry is a man of faith, as is the overwhelming majority of the Hispanic community,” New Mexico campaign spokesman Ruben Pulido told the Tribune. “This is another value that connects John Kerry with Hispanics.” Meanwhile, the Bush ad criticizing Kerry for his vote against the Unborn Victims of Violence Act was also translated and broadcast in Spanish in New Mexico, Arizona, Florida and Nevada. Bush campaign strategist Matthew Dowd said, “Latinos will judge John Kerry less about something he says to cover up his record than his record.”
