Hernandez is an American by birth(he always claimed dual citizenship), he mother was a resident of Fort Worth and his father was a Mexican rancher. They are white and have money.

He was close to Fox, and as a professor at UTD, he arranged for Governor Fox's speech at UTD, and arranged the original meeting between Gov Fox and Texas Gov Bush at that time.

As president, Fox appointed Hernandez to a created position in which he traveled extensively in the US soliciting affluent Mexican Americans to invest in Mexico.

This activity ran afoul of Jorge Castenada, who was the Mexican Secretary of State. Hernandez's job was eliminated and replaced by the local Councils located in many US cities and made up affluent and politically connected Mexican Americans.

Thank you for the background. The political class of Mexico seems to have a whole lot in common with our political class.

Dr. Juan Hernandez is known in his Mexican home town of Guanajuato as Johnny....not Juan. He is an outspoken Evangelical. I’ve met the guy, he is likeable, like so many public people are. But my gripe and constant battle cry to him was LETS FIX MEXICO SO PEOPLE IN GUANAJUATO, don’t have to go to Ft. Worth to make minimum wage!

Why the hell does America allow dual-citizenship in the first place? This practice should be ended.
