For me, the American promise isn't just an idea or a theory - it's my life story.

The difference between Oprah Winfrey and me is about $200 million.

President Obama is a principled man who has worked hard to put healthcare and a good education in the reach of millions of Americans and believes that everyone who works hard and plays by the rules, should have a fair shot at the American dream.

Latin life is rich with warmth, family values and history. I want to bring that beauty into American homes.

I want to make sure I'm not a dilettante. Decorating has been a passion all my life. I love it.

Being a professional woman, I function the best when I don't distinguish between work and play.

The common denominator all Latinos have is that we want some respect. That's what we're all fighting for.
