El Paso has to market what they have and that's Mexican culture.

First off- Don't you think the rest of the country already knows there is a heavy Mexican influence here? They have known for decades... AND it isn't working.

Second- Los Angeles has Chinese culture.

I'm sure that's where you go to experience the Chinese culture, and that's the reason your family wants to go there.... And not because LA has Universal Studios, Dodger Stadium, Laker games, Knotts Berry Farm, Santa Monica Pier, and so on.

You claim you hate it when people settle for things.... And here you are, doing it yourself.
