On April 4th, a group of Latin American pop stars gathered in Miami, Florida (called "the Capital of Latin America") to promote an Interamerican Development Bank development program called "Yo Amo Am?©rica". [Ellos Aman a Am?©rica, el Siglo de Torreon, April 5th, 2008] As I've explained before there is a difference between what Americans call "America" and what Spanish-speakers call Am?©rica .

Nevertheless, Colombian rock star Juanes was in Miami. In an earlier blog entry I reported on Juanes' promotion of the Hispanic vote in the U.S.A.
