“When one reads or hears something about immigrants in the United States today, what group comes to mind? Hispanics, no doubt.

Hispanics comprise 12 percent of our population, eclipsing African- Americans as of the 2000 census. Many of those Latinos have attained national leadership positions ”” Alberto Gonzalez, our attorney general; Henry Cisneros, secretary of Housing and Urban Development in President Clinton’s cabinet; Lt. Gen. Ricardo Sanchez, the top U.S. commander in Iraq; and Patricia Romero Cronin, vice president at IBM. More locally, Tony Aranjo is the sheriff of Palm Beach County.”
