I believe that a Hispanic country star is out there, and that this will happen soon. I also believe that when it does, it will be a woman because female artists in general just seem to make that leap from 'wannabe' to 'star' with more ease.
We know that there exist Hispanic fans of country music. We see them at our shows. I believe that a bona fide star that comes from this community could have a huge career.
There are a handful of American-born, Hispanic artists out there performing this (country) music, but like everything else in this business, the big stars are few and far between.
All we need is a hero, somebody the Hispanic community would relate to and who wants to play country music and get a song on country radio.
With the impact that the Hispanic community is having on American culture, the time is now.
