was when I was in high school I was at second baptist high school in Houston
0:59
and our arch rival First Baptist school
1:02

1:38
and the principal did not particular care for me and and he said well
1:42
okay then he reaches in his desk drawer he pulls out a letter

2:18
I called my dad my dad septet just get high school
2:22

2:32
from and then moments later the principal called as assistance and call
2:36
in the three boys he knew their names are already well
2:39
they came and he ended up not sending the letter but it but it was a fairly
2:43
harrowing when you're settled
2:45
senator football character well
2:48
and a path a I hope so when one of the things that I discussed in the book is
2:53
my family story you know my father was imprisoned and tortured and killed by me
2:57
know you don't have as much shot when he was beaten and as a broken nose in cuba
3:01
I talk about my aunt who fought against castro was imprisoned and tortured
3:05
talk about my mom who stood up to her alcoholic father
3:09
and and became the first person or family right
3:13
ever to go to college in you know I admire people who stand up
3:17
okay for Prince kaelin in your story one thing is you you achieve your school
3:22
I N in every respect so hey we've got some questions we're gonna get a bigger
3:25
swapped with in your book your people no idea what's going on
3:28
alright well question number one if you could just keep you do like assented to
3:31
I amnesty for illegals all how do you feel and how do you feel about Donald
3:35
Trump's comments that their drug dealer to rate this
3:38
to come across the border and stay strong it's unfair to millions have
3:42
legal immigrants immigrants like my dad who came legally in 1957 penniless and
3:47
not speaking English
3:48
when it comes to donald Trump I like Donald Trump I think he's terrific I
3:52
think he's brash I think he speaks the truth
3:54
and I think NBC is engaging in political correctness that is silly and and that
3:59
Israel should he apologized for what he said
4:00
I don't think you should apologize for speaking out against the problem that is
4:05
illegal immigration I recognize
4:07
that the PC world mainstream media they don't want to admit it
4:10
but the American people are fed up now listen we're also a nation of immigrants
4:15
and we should celebrate right legal immigrants but but Donald Trump is
4:20
highlight by the mosey drug use a rapist coming across the board not look good
4:25
they're not mostly that but Donald Trump he has
4:29
if speaking that gets attention and I credit him right
4:32
for focusing on an issue that needs to be folk and he was talking about the and
4:35
secured southern border
4:36
is a problem and thats you know you talk about that for you hear it
4:40
I represent the state except that nearly 2,000 miles a border
4:44

4:47
and children immigrants are being smuggled and
4:50
I'll tell you who are definitely criminals are the smugglers yeah
4:53
the smugglers are transnational vicious cartels
4:57
you look at these unaccompanied children who are being brought in by these drug
5:01
these kids are being physically abused their being sexually abused
5:05
these are bad bad geyser the human smugglers and drugs drug smugglers and
5:09
we need to focus on national security particularly with the threat to my sis
