Hi Drew!
My thanks for those links..! I dun'no..? As you know, I do quite a bit for thousands of kids, orphans and families outside the USA.?? Those kids live elsewhere. They look up to the United States as being something special. Something "different"? Better than what they have in their home - in Haiti. Being from the USA meant something "special"? Something to aspire to - something that those kids - my kids - wanted to be a part of?
For that, I wtched the links to the videos...
I respect Mexico. I applaud those from Mexico in the USA who are living the "American Dream". Without America, and all it is - there would be no "dream". But - I think I just said it..?
"We" - live in the USA. It is the "American Dream" we provide - even during Cinco de Mayo.
A "No American flag t-shirt on Cinco de Mayo" while celebrated in the USA forgets whose borders we are celebrating it within? I will continue to support and respect any Mexican Nationals right to celebrate Cinco de Mayo in the USA for as long as they respect any right to have them acknowledge they are celebrating that holiday in our country, which is not Mexico.
Rather, that country is the United States of America.
Today, the United States of America is not Mexico.
BTW - on the 4th of July - what would happen if Mexico City pulled down and banned the showing of all their flags and raised "Old Glory"?
