"[Y]ou are the first Hispanic candidate ever to win a caucus or primary," she noted of the Texas Republican, and yet, she complained,  "there is the perception in the Latino community" that both of them "are spending the time arguing with each other, trying to figure out which one is tougher on immigration, in order to appeal to the majority of Republicans."
