WASHINGTON — Latinos are taking a more prominent role in President Obama’s second inauguration, from the first Hispanic Supreme Court justice swearing in the vice president to a star-studded celebration of Latino culture.

Eva Longoria, a cochairwoman for Obama’s campaign, hosted a salute to the president Sunday evening. Antonio Banderas, Rosario Dawson, Marc Anthony and other entertainers appeared in ‘‘Latino Inaugural 2013: In Performance at the Kennedy Center.’’ The lineup also included Jose Feliciano, Prince Royce, Frankie Negron, Rita Moreno, and Mario Lopez.

Great, for legal latinos. ILLEGALS? Round 'em up, put them in cattle cars and ship them back over the border...
