Why do you think Latinos are so stupid that then don't understand what political enemies are?Context is your friend.
If Latinos sit out the election instead of saying we're gonna punish our enemies and we're gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us, if they don't see that kind of upsurge in voting in this election, then I think it's going to be harder, and that's why I think it's so important that people focus on voting on November 2nd.
Why would Americans who happen to be Latino, think other Americans, who happen not to be of the same political persuasion, as their 'enemies'.... Unless the words are put into their heads.
Context is indeed our friend. And context is a little bit more than the words in context, Ravi. Context is also the 'what, when, where, why, and how' of the words.
The relevant question, Ravi is 'Why would Obama consider political opponents as 'enemies' to Latinos. Why would he suggest to them that they have enemies?'
Those on the opposite side are not your enemies, Ravi. They are your fellow Americans.
