Response to comment [from other]: "It will be interesting to see how Juan's views and opinions are shaped from this point forward. If there will be any adjustment of his core beliefs or what political parties will likely support his right to voice an opinion."
Think he'll turn from the dark side? Eccl 10:2.

Will NPR pay his contract (with our money )?
