Mr. De La Torre wrongly lays the blame for the ongoing failure of Socialist governments in Central and South America as the fault of the U. S. How completely irrational his thinking is. Rather than to acknowledge the reality of Capitalism bringing progressive life styles around the world, to recognize that the reason he and others come illegally as well as wait in line legally for year to come here, is precisely because of the government THERE vs our capitalist economy and democratic system. Most sad, he is imbuing the minds of our children with the recent racist phenomena that if you are born with a light skin pigment, you are automatically entitled and will have a much easier life. Doesn't get more racist, or silly, than that notion.
