I think that it's important for people like President Trump, and people in the House of Representatives, as we talked earlier, people in the US Senate , to stop for a minute to really study the history of what it is to be a Latin American and understand the United States involvement in Latin America.To understand how we came to be, and to see the complicated issues that exist today are not just about talking points.

There's a story I tell where there was this fellow. Obama -- it wasn't clear, once the whole healthcare thing came down, the tough vote was gonna be in the House, not in the Senate , if you remember the really close vote.
