TRUMP SEEMS OBSESSED WITH THE DIFFERENT SPELLINGS OF ILAN OMAR'S NAME
Every immigrant family who came through Ellis Island knows the facts, CNN has conveniently forgotten.
One key problem on the names happened when the mother came several years after the father. The mother did not know immigration may have changed the name of her husband when he landed on Ellis Island, so when she arrived with the children, they all had a different name from the father.
The immigration employees routinely changed how people spelled their names. They were not always familiar with many of the immigrant names.
Under Trump's and Vicente Gonzalez's standards my mother would lose her citizenship and be deported back to Nicaragua.
I have all of her immigrant paperwork. Depending on the document she was born on April 9, or 10, 1920 or 1919. She settled on April 10, 1919.
Some of her paperwork says Alicia Cervantes Gonzales. Others say Alicia Concepcion Gonzales. Some says Alicia C. Cervantes. Her final citizenship document says Alicia C. Wightman-Cervantes.
Hey Vicente her current address in Pine Lawn Cemetery on Long Island.
My mother's paperwork constantly changed because some was prepared here in Brownsville, New Orleans, and the US Embassy in Managua.
THE CASE OF ELLIS ISLAND, MAKES IT A ROLL OF THE DICE HOW YOUR NAME WAS SPELLED
There is nothing new in variations in a person name during the immigration process.
If Vicente Gonzalez does not know this, then he is too stupid to hold public office.
NOTE: I did not say Omar's family came through Ellis Island. But nice try. I said if you look to Ellis Island historically, people's name changed when they entered through Ellis Island.

How I voted is not random and arbitrary. We can all agree that locally the Democrats are the problem. They are the problem not because they are Democrats, but because they operate under a tent of corruption.
At the state level the Republicans have had control for 30+ years. If you are about meaningful change, and a desire to end the corruption, you must vote Democrat at the state level. You either want to end the corruption or not.
THE SOLUTION IS SIMPLE
Locally vote out all the incumbents, meaning Democrats, and statewide, all Republicans.
The message will be clear - we want change. In two years, we will vote for candidates who truly show an agenda of change.
TEXAS FACES MAJOR SHORTAGE OF DENTAL
HYGIENISTS
Once again Texas Southmost College and BISD fail to prepare students for jobs in demand.
Both BISD and TSC are behind in job training in key areas. Texas A & M is very active in the LRGV area. So, the question is why has BISD and TSC not asked for help in training dental hygienists? You have to travel to Corpus for the closest training.
What says, Denise Garza and Joey Lopez about the lack for job training for dental hygienists?
