Welcome to California: Vote for Pedro

Here's another story that's sure to rile up tensions on the immigration issue...
The parents of popular Cal State Fresno Student Body President Pedro Ramirez always talked a lot about el sueƱo Americano — the American Dream.

He was to study hard, get good grades and claim the prize, but it wasn't until that night in their kitchen when the high school valedictorian was filling out university applications that they told him a missing detail — he wasn't a United States citizen. He was born in Mexico. He came to this country when he was 3 years old.
