Talk:List of Cuban Americans

message: *There is no solid fact that Eamon de Valera's father was Cuban. A baptismal certificate simply is not sufficient enough to challenge a counterclaim that he was a Spanish national.  One has to remember Cuba was part of the Spanish dominion until 1898. A simple baptism in a place does not give that child nationality.--XLR8TION (talk) 04:23, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Eamon de Valera

message: **Why is this article always being locked because of XLR8TION? De Valera was a Cuban as was Anais Nin. There needs to be something done about XLR8TION's random and unsupported decisions to delete names from this list, and cause it to be locked for no reason other than because he has a disagreement. Why should we trust XLR8TION rather than an ancient document such as an undipsuted baptismal certificate, which because it is an ancient document, would be admitted as proof of what it says in any court of law in the United States?  Also, why is the Bacardi family no longer on this list, are they no longer Cuban because XLR8TION does not think so? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.83.19.141 (talk) 04:22, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: On XLR8TION'S EDITS

message: A Cuban-American is either an American who is a descendant of Cubans, or a Cuban who immigrated to America and became a naturalized citizen.  That is, you have to be an *American* to be a Cuban-American.  A LOT of people on this list are simply Cubans. For example, I'm fairly certain that Yunel Escobar has not been naturalized, so he's Cuban, not Cuban-American.  Boo!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.28.250.194 (talk) 21:58, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Definition of Cuban-American

message: Cuba Gooding Sr is also Cuban-Americans since he is of Basrbadian and Cuban descent. Therefore, the children of this, actors Cuba Gooding Jr and Omar Gooding are also part of Cuban-Americans (I prefer the term Cuba-U.S. is more specific).

thread_title:  Other Cuban-Americans 

message: Armando Olivera – President of Florida Power and Light, the largest subsidiary of the FPL Group, Inc., since 2003.
Is he Cuban American? he was given a recognition by the Association of Cuban Engineers. I couldn't find a biography on him but since he was given this award by a cuban association it merits a little digging to confirm his descent. 
Thanks.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.108.10.49 (talk) 03:22, 23 July 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Armando Olivera (FP&L CEO) 

message: Jeffrey P. Bezos  founder and CEO of Amazon.com, Inc. took his last name from his cuban stepfather who helped raise him since he was five years old. I'm sure his cuban stepfather had a great deal of influence in his life, to the point that he bears his last name.
