I remember when she was promoted, many Mexicans didn’t care. Some of them knew she was Puerto Rican and knew she had nothing really in common with them or just didn’t care…

not all puerto ricans and mexicans hate eachother maybe some, but in majority most latin american people do get along because they all have the same history with spain, they were all colonised mexico,central and south america except brazil, and PR, DR, cuba, and so on, i dont think it’s hate i think it’s more of a whos better type of thing, so any latino would be happy if another latino would get promoted to such positions

It’s not really about anyone hating other people, but Mexicans and Puerto Ricans speak a similar language, that’s where all the similarities stop. Caribbean Hispanics have a different culture, different ethnic makeup in our countries, ect. I don’t get why they would even care.

I’m Mexican and I have no problem with Puerto Ricans, in fact I have relatives in PR.
I’m not proud for Sotomayor and I wouldn’t be proud for her even if she was Mexican.

Maybe they feel good a minority was appointed. I have no idea though but I think people have their reasons.
