I'm surprised that Chavez' birthday hasn't been declared a national holiday by now to pander to the hispanic vote.

I hope Cinco de Mayo is. lol. At least that would be a decent celebration. We will have a hispanic national holiday someday and I hope it is that day. Certainly not Chavez’ birthday. Although since we don’t get a day off for Easter, and we don’t have a day off from President’s Day to Memorial Day. Some day in between would be nice. lol. But not Cesar Chavez for goodness sakes.

His birthday has been a holiday in California for a long time. I’m surprised google isn’t celebrating Hugo Chavez.
