I've been told that my last name isn't an "authentic" name for where I live here in the U.S., since it is an Italian name. Yes, I come from a family of immigrants.

Mexico, like the US, has immigrants.

And lots of Germans immigrated to Mexico and South America to flee from Hitler. (Not to mention some of the Nazis who fled to South America to escape justice after the war, but they are a much smaller group.)

By and large, immigrants were more readily accepted into the culture in South America than they have been in the U.S. (For example, Argentina has lots of Italian names.) So surprise about Sheinbaum's name is a particularly U.S. perspective.

Sheinbaum appears to be her FATHER's middle name...and the way that the three names of any Mexican person are arranged, that means that Sheinbaum is the name of her grandmother on her father's side.

Perfect! That is what I have always thought too!

I know maybe she figured moving to Mexico and becoming President then she would not have to pay taxes?

LOL! There were a lot of ethnic German people living in Mexico after 1900.

Very suspicious ;)

No they moved north

One of Jewish decent....

Code for cartel Queen

She sounds like a Chinese spy

Sounds like her Spanish blood line went fooling around with the Germans !
