You go to a theater, you're in a darkened room, and you watch someone that you don't really know how many children they have or what their father's nickname might be; you don't have references and databases and rumors and half-truths - you're just transported by their storytelling.

I have dark skin. My nickname is El Negro. They call me El Negro in Mexico because even in my country, the dark skin is evidence of Indian blood, a sign that one technically belongs to a third class. Even my grandmother had some kind of differentiation with me, because I was darker than my siblings.

I think President Obama is not progressive. And I know a lot of people hate to hear that; it breaks their heart. But that's the reality. It's not in his nature. His nature is pro-establishment. If he had a wrestling nickname, it would be The Establishment.
