Adopting two blond children from Latin America, where blond hair and nordic features are not only relatively rare, but highly prized, is unusual. Those who are blond tend to be among the rich class, and would less likely to need give their children away. It does not seem likely that there are enough unwanted blond children born in Latin America that they can give them to foreign couples. However, unlikely does not mean impossible.

Anyway, it is all speculation, and I trust that this adminstration has already looked into the issue, and if there were any inproprieties they would not have nominated him. I suspect there nothing to find, and the media will come up empty.

I had two very close male friends in college that were born and raised in Argentina. They were both as white as my lily-white Irish a$$. I asked them about their coloring once. They explained to me that most of the upper class in South America decended from European conquerors. It is not THAT unusual to see WHITE Latin Americans. Just think of t he history of the areas.
