. Cardona was born in Connecticut and is ethnically Puerto Rican. Because Puerto Rico is an American territory, native Puerto Ricans are American. Therefore, defining Cardona as "Boricua-American" is a violation of
MOS:ETHNICITY. While I have very little knowledge of Puerto Rico and Puerto Rican culture, a cursory Google search yields that the word "Boricua" is a colloquial or informal term. It is not appropriate to use anywhere in the article.

Please do not change the infobox in this article to say that Cardona is the nominee for the Secretary of Education until the nomination has actually been made; only the president can make a nomination and Biden has not yet been sworn in. Thanks! ElKevbo ( talk) 06:08, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
