Video: Locking in the Latino vote

>> in there. i'm at a democratic can convince. but the speech is an optimistic speech.

>> julian can castro talking about the speech he will give tonight at can convention. he will deliver a keynote speech . and no, you are not seeing double. that's the mayor's identical twin brother, joaquinn castro pl and he will introduce his brother. they will appeal to two groups, critical to president obama 's reelection. women and latinos . a new tracking poll shows mitt romney got four-point bump along latino voters after the republican convention featuring senator marco rubio and new mexico's michelle martinez . president obama is still holding a commanding lead. 64% to just 30% over governor romney when you look at latino voters. joining me now from charlotte, network news anchor, jose, a pleasure to see you.

>> thank you.

>> with his identical twin brother, quite a sight to see them together on the floor. described as a rising star , why was he so appealing to president obama and democrats it put on the stage in this way.

>> in very many ways, he is like obama was four or eight years ago. he is a member of a community that finds in him the representation of the american dream . and when you think about the fact that there are 50.5 million latinos in this country, maybe 12 million or more could vote the next 6 of november, here is someone who represent the hopes and dreams of many hundreds of thousands, millions of latinos , that in this country do nothing but work. contribute culturally. contribute economically to this nation. to to show someone like that, this man with his version of the american dream , it is an important message that democrats are giving at this convention.

>> it is interesting. we heard mitt romney within governor romney and others say their party is actually the party that is raising, if you will, and shining in the spotlight on young latino stars. pointing of course to marco rubio , susanna martinez . we mentioned this four-point bump among latino voters for romney after his convention. what do you think is behind that?

>> well, it was actually more than just marco rubio and susana martinez . brian sandoval , his wife introduce romney and everyone was introduced by a latino . but is that enough? is that what latinos are looking for on the 6th of november in the plat forms of the rnc say the ideal focus should be the 1070s of the world. those aren't exactly things that bring latinos into the republican tent. the republicans have a very tall order, to bring in 38% of latino vote, which is what romney says he needs to win the elections. it is not going to be easy, because of the 1070s of the world. and because of the some of the semantical discussions used by the republican party when they talk about immigration reform . the big problem that the democrats here have with the latino voter is not that the latinos support obama or don't, they do in overwhelming numberes. it is whether they will come out to vote on the 6 of november.

>> how does the party ensure that? you have los angeles mayor , talking with tough words he wanted to say. so how do you inspire the latino voters, who as you point out, we can't say this enough, we are talking 64% to 30%. i said commanding. there needs to be a whole new word. since we like football analogies, if that was a game, that would be a certified whipping bit other team there. what do you do to get those people out?

>> this is the issue. it is fascinating, if you look at nbc wall street journal telemundo polls we have been doing on the latino community specifically, you will see in can contrast to the voting population, latinos are almost evenly divided on whether the country is going into the right direction. that's a huge statement in favor of president obama . but latinos feel their children won't have the same opportunity they had in this country. so it is an interesting dichotomy. the problem is, latinos have been so affected by the unemployment crisis, 10.3%. home foreclosure crisis that affected latinos . that is tapping done on the enthusiasm to come out to vote on the 6th of november.

>> a pleasure.
