Why would anyone site Jesus Malverde as a patron saint of undocumented immigrants without regard to them trafficking narcotics or not? Diegueno 14:19, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Patron Saint of Undocumented Immigrants?

I was unsure of this myself, because Malverde is known pimarily for his patronage of drug traffickers -- however, at his shrine there are apparently ex votos thanking him for help with other illegal acts, of which entering a country as an undocumented worker is one. I welcome proof or disproof either way. Catherineyronwode 22:32, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] POV?

Isn't this statement too POV: "His successes in the Hip Hop world have inspired an entire generation. Malverde is considered to be the most successful and prolific underground artist of recent days and is currently working on his follow up album "La Leyenda Continua" for 2007."? Neway it doesnt seem very probbable for an artist to inspire an 'entire generation' with just one album in one year 83.20.180.15 00:09, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
