Living in San Antonio my whole life this city exploded in terms of culture, economy and population from around 1998-2008. Not so much since Castro has become mayor. Another empty suit for the Dems!!

Another minority that benefitted from affirmative action over others and got admitted to elite schools. His mother was/is about as radical as they come. Big article about him today in the Dallas Morning News. They were comparing him and his twin brother to the Kennedys-gag!

I saw that Interview and it was scary.

I got the feeling that Mama was and is being paid to GROOM her sons for DemonRat stardom. Those boys truly are being Groomed just as Zero was all his life, boom out of nowhere up pops Obama, a well groomed nobody. BTW, where is Castro's papa?

CASTRO?? for president????, looks like Hillary has yet another obstacle to overcome.

Why didn't they invite former Democrat Mayor of San Antonio and former Clintonista Henry Cisneros?

Controversial, inept mayor Julian Castro

I am not sure why the headline writer at the Washington Free Beacon felt it necessary to repeat the word "Democrat."

Almost everywhere things paused after 2008. Duh.

Henry Cisneros?

He is soiled merchandise. And probably afraid of further legal inspection of his activities.

Nobody can run down a city like Villaragosa. Except a series of them in Detroit.
