President Obama Gets His Latino Groove On
After seeing this slideshow from the White House's Fiesta Latina, my knee-jerk reaction is "where's Amaury or Benicio?" Puerto Rican isleños are almost completely absent from the U.S. Latino in-crowd. A "Fiesta Latina" denotes a diversity that's still "in-the-works." Yet it's amazing to see Obama getting his Latino groove on. Especially after George López joked about anti-immigrantes called Lou Dobbs. Good times indeed.
