It  also organizes the Cinco de Mayo celebration in Civic Center Park which  draws around 300,000 people.<\/p>\n<p>A Denver Post article on June 24, 2010, called Ms. Barela <em>&quot;Denver&#39;s  West Side power broker&quot;. <\/em>The article quoted Denver councilwoman  Judy Montero as saying &quot;<em>I also think it&#39;s healthy that everyone  listens to her.&quot; <\/em>Political candidates and parties, especially, will  find it healthy to listen to Veronica about Initiative 300.<\/p>\n<p>The obvious reason is that Latinos account for about 30% of the  Denver population over age 18 who are eligible to vote. Less obvious is  that Democratic and Republican political leaders have had similar views  on the issue of UFOs and extraterrestrial visitors. These include  Presidents Kennedy, Carter, and Reagan, along with Hillary Clinton and  John Podesta. They have either reported seeing UFOs or sought public  disclosure of government files on UFOs and extraterrestrial visitors.<\/p>\n<p>Veronica will also be urging voters to read the eight-page <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.extracampaign.org\/Voter_Education.html\" target=\"_blank\">Initiative 300 voter education<\/a><\/strong> newspaper.  In the Denver Post article, Montero added, <em>&quot;If you choose to believe  that you can make your block better, your neighborhood better, your  world better \u2014 then Veronica is a shining example that you can.&quot;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Ms. Barela is already known as a visionary. Now she is thinking  bigger and aiming higher. The benefits of Veronica\u2019s life-long community  activism have reached well beyond the Latino community and Denver city  limits. But her support of Initiative 300 could reach even farther.<\/p>\n<p>Initiative 300 is on the ballot for the November 2010 Denver  election.
