Wikipedia, anybody could write wikipedia. You could write wikipedia. I write wikipedia. Anybody who wants to share in the compilation and sharing of human knowledge. How do you check it . One of the fundamental rules of wikipedia is that everything is verifiable, and so anything that you read on wikipedia should have been written in an another reliable source first. And then it was cited in wikipedia and summarized. So if you look at a wikipedia article and you look all the way at the bottom, all those little footnotes, those are all sources, so you should in theory be able to verify anything you read on wikipedia by following those sources. And if youre the subject of one of those wikipedia biographies or articles and the information is blatantly false or wrong, how can you correct it . So its tricky. A lot of people would be tempted to go and edit their biography themselves, which is a little its a hairy business because wikipedia has a conflict of interest policy. So the idea you ca
Americas most dynamic population is poised to transform the politics of the nation. From the 31st annual miami book father, this is about 15 minutes book fair, this is about 15 minutes. Host well, were out on the street in windy miami. Joining us now is gary segura who is a professor at stanford and the coauthor of this book Latino America how americas most dynamic population is poised to transform the politics of the nation. Professor segura how do you define latino . Guest well, largely we let latinos define themselves. The sort of government definition of hispanic is anyone who identifies as a descendant of immigrants or an immigrant from a latin or spanishspeaking nation. Some folks would include spain in that some folks would include portuguese speakers in that.

Because theyre being told that the president is acting unconstitutionally, which is nonsense, the president is breaking the law, which is nonsense. If that was the case, Ronald Reagan brock the law, george h. W. Bush broke the law. But they should vent their frustration at the house of representatives, who not only have not voted on the senate bill but have not offered a bill of their own. The president said degreed a lival in nevada, pass a bill. The runs have it within their ability to pass a piece of legislation at any time. The other reason i sort of reject the frustration is that we have to remember what it is that undocumented immigrants do in the United States. They pick the crops, they process the meat, they roof the houses, they do the ugly, nasty, painful, unpleasant jobs, that very few americans have shown a willingness to apply for. Every time one of our listeners today eats a strawberry or a piece of chicken, their life has been subsidized by the labor of those undocumente
Will take the oath of office. I have the official program and official invitation for the festivities today. You can see the president ial code of arms in gold right there on the top. When trump is sworn in, he will have his hand placed on two bibles. One that will be president lincolns bible also used by president obama in 2009 and also a more personal bible. One from his childhood given to him when he was only 9 years old by his mother and then he will go on to make the most important political speech of his life. One he largely wrote himself. This is more of a personal speech. They say a sincere speech about what it means to be an american and kicking off the festivities last night at the Lincoln Memorial trump gave a small hint on the tone hell bring today. Were going to unify our country and our phrase you all know it, half of you are wearing the hat, make America Great again. But were going to make America Great for all of our people. Everybody. Hell wake up this morning at the b
