The Cuban family ties between the Gloria ESTEFAN Hispanic branch and Poppy have already been trotted out as they are on any Hispanic holiday. Gloria's niece is a co-host on an afternoon Univision fun/gossip program, and she is parked outside the White House "reporting" on tonight's "highly private" dinner for Hispanic guests (read, "millionaire entertainers"). Yes, so far it's -------CUBAN exiles---------who are front and center for a -----MEXICAN-----holiday. This niece is on some kind of A-list for getting invited wherever Poppy interfaces with Hispanic events. She makes some kind of disclaimer, like, "Regardless of politics, Democratic-Republican, I don't care about that, just that we Hispanics have special ties to this White House." So expect mariachis on CNN tomorrow.
