Who is Sergio Bendixen?

Real Clear Politics put out this interesting interview on Sergio Bendixen today.

Bendixen, principal Bendixen & Associates, is a Peruvian immigrant and coordinator of President Obama's Latino voter outreach campaign, and has been a key Democratic consultant for decades. He is widely considered one of the most influential people in American politics, yet relatively unknown. RCP labels him "the most under appreciated and under reported man in American politics"

The story comes in the wake of his own firm's poll, as well as a Latina Magazine poll that shows that over 80% of Latinos support Obama through his first 100 days in office.
