Nerve hit: Bill Richardson supporters respond to his ethnic nationalistic comment

In March I put a Bill Richardson video on Youtube (link) containing audio of him saying the following:
"We have to band together and that means Latinos in Florida, Cuban-Americans, Mexican-Americans, Puerto Ricans, South Americans - we have to network better - we have to be more politically minded - we have to put aside party and think of ourselves as Latinos, as Hispanics, more than we have in the past."
The audio is from this page, and I have absolutely no doubt that that is indeed him speaking.

I appear to have struck a nerve, and one or more Youtube commenters are trying a cute trick:
* That isn't even his voice!!!! Seriously, are people stupid enough to belive this. Show me a video with him actually caught saying that not just audio.

* First, I dont believe its him, I agree it doesnt even sound like him.

* I am anti-illegal immigration and everything, but c'mon, that was the worst Bill Richardson impression I've ever heard. If you're going to undermine a good man's political campaign like a Bushie, at least try to do it well.
Whether those are all the same person isn't known, and Youtube isn't exactly known for highbrow debate, but it is pretty funny.

Richardson switched his border position when he realized that being a Latino he could take advantage of the hispanic onslaught to the US. He is the lowest form of human politician ..but unfortunately he has many,many equals.
