“We are now one of the largest Spanish-speaking nations in the world. We’re a major source of Latin music, journalism and culture.
Just go to Miami, or San Antonio, Los Angeles, Chicago or West New York, New Jersey ... and close your eyes and listen. You could just as easily be in Santo Domingo or Santiago, or San Miguel de Allende.
For years our nation has debated this change — some have
praised it and others have resented it. By nominating me, my party has made a choice to welcome the new America.”
George Bush, campaign speech in Miami, August 25, 2000.

Donna, good find!
He never did "get" it, did he? We're not debating Latin culture. I like Latin culture & music & food & art as much as the next person. We've been debating about "illegals", not about the culture. Even back then he confused the two issues. As he still does.
