Texas Democratic Congressman Ruben Hinojosa - a member of the House

发帖数: 9094 | 2 It turns out NPR has a story about this professor in 2007. So during the
last four years, no more such wonder happened (at least not on the same
magnitude according to NPR's standard). It is also possible that the "build a fence" efforts
by the US KILLED the dreams or the bodies of those budding Spanish kids like him.
Alternatively, one can blame the fact that the Mexicans, documented or not,
do not listen to NPR on a regular basis . . .
