Glad for fellow Hispanic and Texan Alberto Gonzalez

Published on November 11, 2004 By InBloom In Politics

I am not a fan of our President...and didnt vote for him....But I am glad he chose Alberto Gonzalez. I think it is a good step towards reaching out to minorities and supporters of a diversified White House. As a fellow Texan and Hispanic, I only wish him the best. I know some negative things have come out about him; however, to me he is someone to be admired by our community. Although he was the son of migrant workers and came from humble beginnings, his parents valued education, and pushed their children to be the best they can be. Because of this, he has come to be the first Hispanic to be nominated for such a prestigious position in our nation.

I am glad for my fellow Hispanic and hope he is but the first of many minorities be infused into the highest levels of Federal Government.

Isn't so strange that Hispanics are not only the fast growing minority, but ThE largest minority now....and you don't find much high level representation from them. I am hoping this is just the beginning of changes that have been a long time comin'.

I hope so too.
Speaking of which the US is one of the largest Spanish speaking countries with over 20 Million people who speak spanish (though sadly I like Erik Estrada am not one but I will eventually change that like Erik did).
