Democratic Convention Keynote Speaker: Mayor Julian Castro

Castro...really?!!!! A part of me thinks that perhaps Barack Hussein Obama picked him just to watch wingnut heads explode.

But really, who is this guy?

First of all, he's the Mayor of San Antonio, Texas. And secondly, he has a twin brother - Joaquin Castro - who currently serves in the Texas Legislature and is running for U.S. Congress this year.

Both of them graduated from Stanford, went to Harvard Law School, and then returned to San Antonio to get involved in public service.

To give you an idea of what's in store at the Democratic Convention, here's the end of Mayor Castro's speech to the Texas Democratic Convention this year.

  1. Watch some wing nut say that the Democrats are supporting the commies in Cuba by having their leader as keynote speakers.

    The long game, the long game, the LONG game.

    I believe that he said right out of the gate that the sand had shifted beneath their feet and yet....they were unaware.

    This is impressive by young mayor Castro.

    And, PBO is pheNOMinal.

    1. He may not look it, but our mayor is old enough to run for president in 2016.

  3. I don't doubt that, Anonymous. But, compared to me, which is how I was thinking, he's a youngster. And, it would appear, VERY able. If you see this post, would you be so kind, as you appear to be from The Southern Part Of Texas (one of my FAVorite songs from the group "War") to give us some 411 on the good mayor??
