16. We may not know each other but I love you
When I first came here I seen the Latinos as a big problem but as I've become educated about the people of Mexico/South America, from good people here, I've come whole circle. I'm white and used to be, before DU, pretty much one bigoted bastard who didn't realize it, but no more. The problem is the big moneyed interest here in the USA has destroyed the lives of all of our South American brothers and sisters by their money grubbing, cheap labor, lying ass policies in the whole region. My favorite people are our present President Obama, President of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez, President of Bolivia, Evo Morales and LULA da Silva of Brazil and the reason is I see them as trying to make life better for all people no matter the color of their skin. Life doesn't have to be this way for so many of us, I include me because I've been taken advantage of my whole life because of who I am, poor white trash they call us.

I'm a home body and hardly ever go anywhere but I would love to spend some time traveling the area starting at our southern border, down the east side all the way to the tip of South America and back up the west side.

I wish I could rec this a hundred time
