Adryana Boyne - Speech at Republican Party of Texas 2010 Convention



Adryana Boyne Speech at Republican Party of Texas 2010 Convention
By Texas GOP Vote
Adryana Boyne gave a speech to the delegation at the RPT 2010 Convention.
Ivan Andarza, an attorney from Austin and an official spokesperson for the RPT, quoted:
Without a doubt, one of the highlights of the 2010 Texas Republican Convention was the energetic speech delivered by Adryana Boyne. Her speech accomplished the goal of allaying the fear that Hispanic outreach necessarily requires us to water down our conservative message. As she stated, our pro-family and pro-economic freedom agenda are universal and even if delivered in Spanish, they are one in the same. We are fortunate with having someone like Adryana Boyne who can take our conservative message to all corners of our state in English and Spanish. What more could we ask for?
Manny Rosales, Deputy Director of Coalitions for the RNC, quoted:
I like to congratulate Adryana Boyne on an excellent presentation to the delegates during the Texas GOP Convention. Her message of Inclusion was well received and by the applause well regarded.
The transcript and video of Adryana's speech are below:
Hello Texas Republicans!
The Republican Party is the party that offers true hope and change for America! Not the Obama Hope and Change that has greatly increased our national debt and prolonged the recession! But hope to bring government back into the hands of the American people. And change to government that respects its Constitutional limits, and believes America is an exceptional country. What makes our country exceptional? Our founding values and respect for rule of law!!
We must continue to reach out to Latinos in order to stop the liberal take-over of our country. The majority of Latinos hold to conservative values: we are pro-life, pro-family, hard working and believe in free-enterprise. Some escaped socialist governments; they know the danger of big government and the lies of entitlement. Many Latinos proudly serve in our armed forces because they love America.
Republicans are stronger with Latino voters. We just need to show them that we represent their conservative values. Some say that in order to attract new faces to our party we should change our message. I disagree! The Republican message is a conservative message that benefits all Americans.
Democrats think they can make Texas a blue state. But we can show that they are wrong and that the majority of Americans are fed up with their progressive agenda. Let’s unite in electing Republicans in presumed Democrat strongholds – let’s elect solid conservatives like Francisco Quico Canseco, Stephen Broden, Bill Flores and others . Let’s unite in reelecting Gov Perry and other Republicans.
Let’s reach out to conservatives across all ethnic and racial bounds. Together, we can return our government back to the hands of the American people!
Adelante y Vayan con Dios Tejanos Republicanos! Let’s go forward and God bless you Texan Republicans!

Gov. Rick Perry



Gov Rick Perry has been Governor of Texas since December 21, 2000. Gov Perry stood on the steps of the state capitol, raised his right hand and took the oath of office as Texas’ 47th Governor. Every day since then he has stood for Texans’ conservative values, fought for principled solutions to tough challenges and worked to implement a clear vision for better schools, more jobs, safer communities and a brighter future.

Texans are safer because Gov. Perry ordered an aggressive border security initiative that is putting more boots on the grounds, more helicopters in the sky, and more resources into the hands of border law officers who are on the front lines of America’s homeland security efforts. Texas is shutting down illegal activity on the border, and the American homeland is more secure.

Perry has led the fight for better schools, signing into law a $2,000 pay raise for teachers and the country’s largest performance pay program. He has worked for higher standards and greater accountability. He ordered schools to spend 65% of tax dollars directly in the classroom—not bureaucracy—and required districts to open their financial books so taxpayers can see how their money is being spent. Today student test scores are rising, and a record number of children are going to college.

Perry has made job creation a top priority of his administration. Texas has gained more than 630,000 new jobs over the last three years, and more Texans are working today than ever before. Our business climate has been ranked one of the nation’s best, and we are attracting the technology-based jobs of tomorrow’s economy with new job investments.

Throughout his term in office, Gov. Perry has proven himself to be a leader who does what he believes is right, regardless of what critics may say.

He refused to raise taxes when Texas faced a record $10 billion budget shortfall in 2003. Instead, he became the first governor since World War II to sign a budget that lowered state spending. As governor, Perry has used his line item veto to cut over $2.5 billion in proposed spending—six times more than the last four Texas governors combined.

He led the battle to pass the country’s most sweeping lawsuit reforms. Junk lawsuits against medical providers have dropped off dramatically, and patients have better access to healthcare because thousands of doctors have returned to practice.

And in 2005, Perry signed a historic $15.7 billion property tax cut for homeowners and businesses that also includes new taxpayer protections against appraisal increases.

A fifth generation Texan, Perry grew up the son of tenant farmers in the tiny West Texas town of Paint Creek. The younger of Ray and Amelia Perry’s two children, he was active in scouting and earned distinction as an Eagle Scout.

Perry was one of the first in his family to go to college, earning a degree in Animal Science at Texas A&M, where he was also a member of the Corps of Cadets and a Yell Leader.

Between 1972 and 1977, Perry served in the U.S. Air Force flying C-130 tactical airlift aircraft in the Europe and the Middle East. He is a lifetime member of American Legion Post #75.

Prior to being elected Lieutenant Governor in 1998, he served two terms as Texas Commissioner of Agriculture and four terms in the Texas House of Representatives.

Perry married his childhood sweetheart, Anita Thigpen, in 1982. The Governor and First Lady are the proud parents of two children—Griffin, 23, and Sydney, 20. They are members of Tarrytown United Methodist Church in Austin.
