Early this morning, I wrote a post about Ted Cruz and Julian Castro, both Texas politicians, being front page in the news.
My mistake was in characterizing Ted Cruz as Mexican American, when he is, indeed, a Cuban American.
The fact that Cruz is Cuban makes a future rivalry between him and Marco Rubio very likely in the Republican Party’s future.
It also makes a potential rivalry for leadership in Texas between Cruz and Julian Castro, a Mexican American Democrat, even more fascinating, with the reality that Mexican Americans massively outnumber Cuban Americans in the Lone Star State.
So the political future is even more fascinating regarding these three Latino-Hispanic politicians, than even realized early this morning!
