Cristina Saralegui, a Cuban-American journalist, actress and talk show host, said Wednesday at the Democratic National Convention that Mitt Romney as president would “put the American dream further out of reach.”

“In order to cut taxes for those at the very top, he would raise taxes for middle class families, slash education, and cut student aid. Governor Romney would turn Medicare from a guarantee into una libreta de cupones—a book of coupons. He would repeal health care reform, forcing millions of Hispanics to lose insurance. Governor Romney’s plan is really just one word:pa’trás—backward.
