Palm Beach Post
Jose Lambiet, who has been in the United States for 30 years, has had journalism jobs in Buffalo, Alaska, New York, Fort Lauderdale, Los Angeles and West Palm Beach. It took a while to apply for citizenship, he says, “because whoever ultimately ‘signed off’ by proxy on my citizenship, the commander-in-chief, mattered to me.” He adds: “I’m taking the oath because I believe that one day I’ll be living again in the America that I first found here 30 years ago.”
