Castro To Give DNC Keynote Address

Saw this on the evening news...America's youngest mayor, San Antonio Mayor Julián Castro, will be the first Latino to give a keynote speech at a Democratic National Convention.

And so it goes...

Well isn't the DNC slow on hispanic issues...

Katherine Dávalos Ortega, in 1984, was chosen to be the keynote speaker at that year's Republican National Convention - the first Hispanic woman to deliver the lead speech at a national convention

On first glance at the thread title, I wondered "Which one? Fidel or Raul?"
