In one of the most shocking hypocrisies of Obama’s tenure, he actually proclaimed that Cesar Chavez’ birthday be celebrated to honor a man who was vehemently against illegal immigrants! Who was that man? Cesar Chavez!
Let me explain. Cesar Chavez is lauded by the left for organizing farm-workers in order to improve their work environment. Because so many of these workers were Hispanic, many take him up as an inspiring leader for Hispanic causes. But this is problematic for Obama in attempting to co-opt Chavez’ iconic status because while he’s pressing for “comprehensive immigration reform” that would normalize many illegal immigrants. And Chavez had a very strong dislike for illegal immigrants.

In fact, he was so much against illegal immigration, he took direct action to stop them! Miriam Pawell, who wrote a biography of Chavez:

The movie's rendition of Chavez is likely to be more saintly than the real thing -- and more one-dimensional. That's too bad. It would have made for a better story to show how Chavez failed the same immigrant farm workers that many people think he was supposed to represent…"

"'Cesar Chavez Would Not Have Supported Amnesty for Illegals'-- By Ruben Navarrette"

The National Council of La Raza (NCLR) recently issued a statement urging Congress to pass comprehensive immigration reform.
No surprise there. The nation’s largest Latino advocacy organization has long been a vocal proponent of such reform. It is especially fond of a major component — a pathway to earned legal status for illegal immigrants if they make amends for the infraction of entering the country illegally by meeting certain conditions.

What was unusual was the marketing behind the plea. The statement came on March 31, and the organization urged that Congress pass comprehensive immigration reform “in recognition of the birthday of the late civil rights leader Cesar Chavez.”
