Quisiera saber si algun tiempo Sr. Sanchez ha sido Embajador de Cuba..me dio mucho orgullo que recito la poema de Jose Marti. Muchas Gracias

@wichito1960 Sorry, but I am unable to respond in spanish. I believe you are thinking of Philip Bonsal, the last US Ambassador to Cuba in 1960. Phillip Sanchez was the US Ambassador to Columbia and Honduras during the Nixon and Ford administrations. Mr Sanchez's knowledge of Cuba and it's people comes from his experience as a spanish language news paper publisher. Thanks for your interest!

I loved the beautiful and inspiring speech Mr. Sanchez presented. I am a community college student myself and he inspired me to continue to strive and never give up on my dreams. I also loved the quote from Jose Marti! Great Video! Thanks for sharing!!

This one is almost too long, but the mexican guy quoting the cuban poet in spanish keeps it interesting and since im cuban i think its pretty cool!

@IAmMediaMan Gracias por la información sobre mi pregunta. Espero que algún día pudiéramos tener una persona tan amable como el Sr, Sanchez sirviendo de Embajador a Cuba. El Colegio de West Hills es una gran escuela,el Sr. Sanchez es muy buen ejemplo.
