President Barack Obama is smart enough to know that it takes more than eating a burrito and posing next to some Mariachi-clad dude to court U.S. Hispanics. That is why, POTUS this week lured a bunch of “influencial” Hispanics to the White House, including retro-acculturated food-entrepreneur Eva Longoria and radio personality -and former “undocumented Mexican” Eddie “Piolin” Sotelo.
As always, I appreciate the effort, but Mr. Obama should add this blogger to his list next time if he really wants to effect change.
I might not have Longoria’s artistic qualities has, but I have rubbed elbows with the British monarchy.
Here is the official photo of the event. See how many ‘influential Hispanics’ you can recognize.
