Thanks for the awesome funnies..unfortuneatly..some of the subject matter is sooo sad..it just breaks my heart (like that video “who’s gonna build that wall”)..i live in Az. the most racist state of the union..i was born in ELA..lived in Calif. for 63 years..came here 12 years ago..helped with the 2006 “La Marcha” in Phoenix..fighting 1070 etc..I been political since I personally saw JFK at ELA Jr.College in 1960..with Frank Sinatra!!..(I got bit by the political Bug right then and there) For your info..i just need to tell you how i got to see them!!! I was a naiive 18 yr.old “Chicana” coming off the School Bus at E.L.A.Jr. College, carrying about 6 heavy books..and there were all these people..i mean..thousands, soo many cars..T.V. Trucks etc..so I stopped a guy and asked him..”What’s going on?”..and he turned and looked at me.. and said ” YOU DON’T KNOW? JOHN F. KENNEDY IS HERE!!!”..He said to me..wanna see?? follow me”…so I followed him up stairs etc..finally when we arrived to sit down..the whole place errupted in deafening applause and cheers!!! I just stood there in disbelief!! there was John F. Kennedy and Frank Sinatra in a Convertible Limosine driving around the field..WOW WOW WOW!! I will never forget these moments..i don’t remember anything else..i don’t even know if i ever sat down!!..i just remember that when i everyone began to leave..that “I HAD BEEN IN THE PRESS BOX!!!” WHAT???…I was hooked on politics!!..I am soo happy Michelle Obama will be here in Phoenix on Sun..will try to go..I have soo many more stories you will never believe about my Political Journey…most importantly..Please encourage your readers to VOTE VOTE VOTE!! I was just watching on You Tube “Adios Muchachos” song the other day (sung in the early 1900’s by Carlos Gardel..I was going down memory lane remembering my Grandfather Mariano Rio delaLoza…Grandson of Dr. Leopoldo Rio de la Loza “Father of Science” in Mexico..My husband happens to be the Great Grandson of “Justo Sierra O’Rielly Peniche”(Father of Education in Mexico..what a trip..for their two offspring to meet and marry (destiny??)….sooo proud!! even before I found out in the 1980’s when my husband and I went looking for our Ancestors Birth Certificates..we wanted to know where our ancestors came from..of course we are indigenous( I, Tarahumara and Black Foot and my Hubby Yucatan) but where in Europe are our ancestors from? “Mexican”..Mixed races(Meztizos)..sorry hope you are still reading..and i hope i did not bore you too mucho!! I am soo proud of our heritage!! as everyone of us should be!! never ever let the Racists tell you/us anything else(1/3 of the USA was Mexico!! Hello!!And Like the Black Slaves, we Mexicans have helped to build this Country with our sweat and tears..not to mention our Blood shed in greater numers during WWI, WWII and all the wars!! My husband and I visited the Pyamids of Chi chi nitza, Yucatan..and the 5 Civilizations in Mex. DF..also we visited Machu Picchu in Peru, South America..all built by our ancestors!! all done while the Europeans were stumbling in the mud!! as you may or may not be aware we had the advanced knowledge/intelligence in engineering in all phases of building etc..including of water, management fresh and waste water..astrology etc..before any other..when the Europeans arrived they tried to destroy what they did not understand..but missed the City of Machu Picchu..which was high in the mountains..and not discovered till much later..i need to write a book..am planning on it too..i am now 75 years old and time is running out!! take care and God Bless you all at “Pocho”..VOTO VOTO VOTO..the Beautiful Brown Giant Awakens!! I think we democrats may win Arizona back!!The “Arizona Republic Newspaper” has “ENDORSED CLINTON!!! first time in 150 years!! they are now getting death threats!! it is getting really scarey!! you guys please be careful..anything is possible with the maniac “racist, hate spewing Trumpedo” loose..I am praying every single day extra Rosaries for us all!!

We like making POCHO’s Ñews y Satire for you every day, but it takes money. Can you please help?
POCHO has no big backers, no mega investors, no brand-name “sponsors.” We get a trickle of revenue from Google Adsense (it barely pays the iPhone bill) and that’s all. No one owns us, no one tells us what we can or cannot do. But independence ain’t free. We’re hoping to raise some extra cash from you, our loyal readers. Can you help?
We would like to upgrade our hardware/server arrangements, redesign the website, and maybe someday pay our hard-working editors, talented writers, visionary photographers, and kick-ass cartoonists. Oh yes, and our pinches lawyers tambien. Can you help?
