The four-term Massachusetts senator used the forum to criticize Bush for snubbing a meeting of the National Association for the Advance ment of Colored People, which Kerry will attend Thursday. "Friends, 1 will be a president who meets with the leadership of the civil rights (in) Congress, who meets with the NAACP," Kerry said. As he has done in previous years of his presi dency, Bush has declined to address the group. The Democrat announced that he is spending $1 million on Spanish language ads, and The Associated Press has learned that on Wednesday he plans to unveil a $2 million ad campaign on radio stations, newspa pers and television stations popular with blacks. Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., who chairs the Congressional Black Caucus, said the ad buy will go a long way toward helping Kerry win sup port among blacks. Cummings also said blacks feel a connection with Ker ry's running mate, Sen. )ohn Edwards of North Carolina — something they couldn't always say about Kerry. "African-American people feel Ed wards. T hey feel it like they felt Clin ton," Cummings said, although exit polls conducted during the primar ies showed blacks favored Kerry over Edwards. Cummings said he told Kerry when it became clear he was going to win die Democratic nomination that blacks were tired of coming out to vote for Democrats without getting much in put in dieir campaigns. He said Kerry's campaign is listening, with weekly con ference calls with members of the black caucus, often with campaign manager Mary Beth Cahill and chairwoman Jeanne Shaheen. "I have direct access to Mary Beth," Cummings said. "I probably talk to her every other day." The Kerry campaign's concern is not that blacks will vote for Bush but rather low turnout on Election Day. The campaign for Hispanics is more hard-fought, with both campaigns trying to win the backing of the politi cally disparate group. Blacks who went to the polls in 2000 chose Democrat Al Gore over Bush by a 9-to-l margin, and nearly two-thirds of Hispanics supported Gore. Still, Bush made inroads with Hispanics in the last election and was rewarded with 35 percent of their vote. Previous Republican presidential nominees failed to break 30 percent among Hispanic voters — Bob Dole garnered 21 percent in 1996 and Bush's father got 25 percent in 1992. The Hispanic-targeted ad Bush be gan airing Monday is titled "Havoc," and it singles out two votes Kerry has missed — one to cap medical mal practice awards and one to fund the war in Iraq. The ad points out that Kerry made it back to the Senate to vote against legislation that expand ed the legal rights of the unborn by making it a separate crime to harm a fetus during an assault on a pregnant woman. "If these are John Kerry's priorities, let's hope there is a lot of havoc in his schedule," a narrator says. The ad includes a clip of Kerry complaining, "This is wreaking hav oc with my schedule." However, Ker ry was complaining about the length of a television interview, not votes in the Senate. The Bush ad doesn't explain that. Kerry's 30-second Spanish-Ian guage television ad titled "Honor" features aspects of Kerry's life that his campaign is hoping will appeal to Hispanics. "We introduce you to a man of faith," a narrator says in Spanish. "A man of family. A man of honor. A man for our community. His name is John Kerry. And for more than twen ty years, he has defended working people. And has fought so they can reach their dreams." As the narrator speaks, the viewer sees images of Kerry playing with his daughters when they were young, get ting a medal in the Navy and working in the Senate. At the end, Kerry is heard saying "Si se puede!" — yes we can — to a cheering crowd. Nedra Pickier is a writer for the Associated Press. 22*610 Make a di-P-P m somebody s li-Pe . .
