#1 How nice to hear:
"The response has been outstanding. We have a waiting list. We get letters in the mail, hundreds if not thousands of phone calls, and had people flying in from places like Chicago who want to be in the show," he said.

Of course, NO ONE is to BLAME, perish the thought, especially the ILLEGAL ALIENS who do not respect our immigration laws. What would happen if every immigrant in the world got it into his/her head to jump the queue and sneak over the US border??? Mexico already has a very generous annual quota for legal entry into the USA. Now here's a novel idea. What about if the Hispanic-American nationals went back to Mexico to try and change the racist political oligarchy which has ruled Mexico for the past 100-200 years to make Mexico a better country to live in to give Mexican children a future there? What if Mexicans themselves had their own version of a Boston Tea Party in their country and said "enough!" Instead we hear the same old, same old blameless "victim" refrain from the usual suspects.
"It is a sad commentary ... You canât really blame the program makers," said Alex Nogales, president of the National Hispanic Media Coalition which campaigns for positive Hispanic representation in the U.S. media. "But how humiliating it is, and how desperate do people have to be, to get something that is so necessary to your life and to the future of your children. It is heart-wrenching," he said.
