Did it appeal to you and win you over or did you feel it was pandering?

Beto, Booker, and of course Castro all spoke Spanish at certain points during the debate.

What are your thoughts?

I sometimes watch spanish TV and I think they don't mind. I think the no.1 immigrant to Mexico is white Americans.

What does that have to do with anything?

These debates have been shown in other countries and stations for years they have translators.

That has nothing to do with the actual candidates choosing to speak Spanish during the debate.

Good grief at Booker's Spanish... I guess he tried. Props for that I suppose. But it reminds me of those Russian guys who speak English in a really thick accent. I don't speak Spanish fluently but I know Spanish when I hear it lol.

Beto's Spanish was worse than Booker's....

I don't find it offensive. It's just clearly pandering.

It's like Hillary doing the nae nae and saying she has hot sauce in her purse. Like Kamala Harris naming rap artists she listened to in college that hadn't even debuted yet after fact checking.

It's identity politics pandering.

I actually love Spanish and my kids will learn Spanish as their first language as my girlfriend is latina. I'm just calling out the pandering for what it is.

Just like I love hip hop and my mom makes her own hot sauce and carries it everywhere but Hillary doing the nae nae and saying she carries hot sauce in her purse isn't gonna make me vote for her.

Stop insulting my intelligence with blatant pandering.

It depends on the context.
When someone comes up to me and starts speaking spanish it's just like "excuse me what the fuck. Bruh, I know English too" and that gets on my nerves.

But again, even that depends on the context of the situation.
