* So, I was skimming through this press release today…
Building on a strong team of diverse experts in their fields, Governor JB Pritzker announced the following individuals have agreed to serve in his administration:
ABRAHAM LINCOLN PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY AND MUSEUM BOARD OF TRUSTEES
Nothing really stood out at first. And then I scrolled down to the fifth name on the list…
Martin Sandoval
I almost choked. What the heck? Are they insane???
* Then I kept reading…
Martin Sandoval, C.P.A., will serve as a Business Administration Expert on the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum Board of Trustees. With over 25 years of experience in business, strategic planning and financial management, Sandoval is the founding partner of Compass Associates. He previously was a Director of Corporate Development of Sara Lee Corporation and did similar work for organizations such as the McDonald’s Corporation and Arthur Andersen. Sandoval is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the Illinois CPA Society, and he has also served as Vice President for the National Museum of Mexican Art, Treasurer of the Little Village Chamber of Commerce and Vice Chair of the Hispanic Alliance for Career Enhancement. Sandoval earned his Master of Science in Business Administration and Bachelor of Science in Commerce from DePaul University.

The curse of having a common name. I faced an allegation of stealing a student’s pencil in grade school. When brought in front of the accuser, the response was, not him, it was another Norseman.

Well, I suppose putting “Not THAT Martin Sandoval!” in the press release would be a bit gauche.

That’s it. I totally sold on higher taxes in Illinois. Marty represents the best Illinois has to offer. Governor Pritzker couldn’t be all wrong.

Narrator: It’s a different Martin Sandoval

poor guy should change his name to anything. Though there are a few surnames to avoid.

===Arthur Andersen===
With the Cardinals clinching against the Cubs I hope Jon enjoyed that.

I know ! Illinois is a talented state with brimming with people with similar names. I challenge any state to have a bench as deep as Illinois.

@A guy
“Why should I change my name? He’s the one who sucks.”
-Michael Bolton. No, the other one.

==Narrator: It’s a different Martin Sandoval==
You should have waited to see how long it took him to figure it out on his own, OW. I’d have imagined we’d be seeing commenter Steve cluelessly mention this for at least a couple weeks, i.e., “…..ever since Pritzker named that crook Sandoval to the library board of trustees” or “why should we believe a guy that appointed a criminal like Sandoval to the ALPLM board”

So you’re trolling yourself?
You’re proud of a self-own.
Yikes.

Your point is well made, however, lol
Be well.

The governor should have appointed Paul Simon. First of all he is a heck of a song writer and singer and is well know to the people of Illinois for his service here and in Washington

It use to take me forever to get through TSA or through customs. Common names can be a problem when it comes to security. But just bad timing for the CPA. At least they didn’t said Marty as that’s how most news stories printed the raid. But that probably won’t help with Google.

Mike Madigan (of Champaign Co) must have been too busy for the appointment.

“How many J.B.s do you know, then throw in Pritzker, it’s not like I am a Jones,” said the governor.
