Jose Martinez

Jose A. Martinez was born in Havana, Cuba in 1953. He's lived and worked in Miami, Florida for the last 23 years and has voted in American elections ever since supporting Ronald Reagan for President. A self described conservative and Republican, Jose became disillusioned with his party after what he saw as a concession to the far right wing religious orthodoxy within its ranks. The ultra partisan effort to impeach Clinton led by the House Republicans was the final straw that led him to consider supporting Democrats. Jose's focus is on the nation's economy and our involvement in Iraq. On both these issues, Jose believes Senator Obama has the character and ability to bring "real change" to Washington.
