Canadians shouldn't come down to Southern California and take jobs away from Mexicans.
For the women in California, they're just downtrodden because they're so gorgeous here. Every hot cheerleader comes to California to make it. The men don't want to get married, they're lazy lions. Matthew McConaughey is their poster boy so they can procreate and live on the beach in the trailer and have kids and have money and be hedonistic.
I don't see how can I offend Mexicans with the truth. It is what Mexicans want to hear.
If we put the emphasis upon the right things, if we live the life that is worth while and then fail, we will survive all disasters, we will out-live all misfortune. We should be so well balanced and symmetrical, that nothing which could ever happen could throw us off our center, so that no matter what misfortune should overtake us, there would still be a whole magnificent man or woman left after being stripped of everything else.
The word 'Chicano' was originally a derisive term from Mexicans to other Mexicans living in the United States.
My interest is to establish an agenda of engagement with Mexicans that will respond to Mexicans' most urgent needs.
Mental toughness is a lifestyle. It's something that you live every single day of your life. When I was growing up, I was a lazy kid.

Virtually throughout its history, and certainly in the 20th century, California has been known as the place to go for dynamism and growth. It did not become the richest, most populous, and most productive state solely because of its weather and natural resources. So it takes a lot to turn California around from growth to contraction, from people moving into the state to a net exodus from the state, from business moving into California to businesses leaving California. It takes some doing. And the Left has done it.
