Or, maybe artists are always compelled to live somewhere other than where they are from. I really like Erick González's paintings. I hope he keeps posting them to his blog.

I also would like to submit that our President Obama's support of Zelaya is compelled by his own lust to change the America Constitutions limit on his own presidency as did the former Clinton administration. What we have all been witness to in the last decade is an aggressive move to nationalize the American continent under a socialistic monarchy.
