I am so very glad that he is sitting in at the Summit of the Americas. I really don't feel that he had to beg, who said that? He asked and was granted a seat. What is so wrong with that? I would ask too, but where would that get me, probably not even a response? Coon Come is a leader of our people and he will be welcomed by other leaders at the summit of the Americas! I know that he will inform us, the people, what was said and any reactions to his visit. Most important, he will be visible and he will have a voice on some very important issues. I know what goes on behind closed door at any meetings of power.
So anyways! Wait and see! He will come back and tell us what was said.
He is in and I am thankful that he asked and he was received. After all these years!
Keep us the good work Matthew!
