This is awesome.

I wish Americans would just accept that Spanish is our second language.

That being said, I need to commit myself to learning the language. No time like the present.

Ugh this reminds me of what someone said that people speaking Spanish more and more in this country was a SAD thing. Racist trash. I hope to never see that person ever again. Oh and this was said in front of me, a MEXICAN.

so how do u plan to build your walls.

Lego blocks?

Sandcastle?

I'm going to build it out of ice so it's pretty and shiny and blindy.

Legos and leave a lot of them on the ground so that they get stepped on, causing IMMENSE PAIN.

It will be rainbow.

And delicious

How do progressive people/people from South America view his mission trips? I read this article in the NYT in September and have difficulty forming an opinion about it: http://www.nytimes.com/2016/09/03/us/politics/tim-kaine-honduras-jesuit.html?rref=collection%2Ftimestopic%2FKaine%2C%20Tim&action=click&contentCollection=timestopics®ion=stream&module=stream_unit&version=latest&contentPlacement=40&pgtype=collection . (I have to add that I have been very critical about missionary work and young people without the necessary expertise going abroad to "help" and have had many conversations about this topic during the last summer)
