Between Univision news anchor Jorge Ramos and the threat of boos, Joe Biden has cause to avoid California's Democratic Party convention next week
by asking if Latinos should trust him and by repeatedly pressing the former vice president to explain President Obama’s record of deporting 3 million people. Ramos noted at the time that Biden never explained whether the deportations were a mistake. After the debate, the two reportedly had aBiden’s camp as well as some neutral Democratic observers are convinced Ramos would look for a similar moment at the convention, which will be packed with progressive immigration activists.
A Democratic consultant familiar with the Biden campaign strategy echoed the sentiments about the convention activists and said Biden would prefer to campaign earlier in California at a separate event, Washington and then in early-state Nevada. Still, Obama loyalists and Biden backers bristle quietly about how Ramos popularized the term “deporter in chief” to describe the former president’s record. And they believe that, contrary to what immigration activists or Ramos say about Biden’s record, the former vice president is well-positioned to win the state and Latino voters more broadly.
Said another California donor who talks to the campaign: “All of us were against Biden going. I said, ‘I will stand outside and keep you from walking in if it keeps you from going in.” In a written statement about Biden’s California plans, the campaign said that “Biden is looking forward to returning to the West Coast next week to hear directly from voters and talk about his vision for addressing their most pressing concerns ... Californians play a crucial role in the Democratic primary, and no one will work harder to earn their vote and ensure we defeat Donald Trump next November.
