Let me get this right: you want to name a street for some local latino, japanese, chinese, or native american but not a local street for a national hero who has never set foot in Portland.

Hmmm...

Who? and which street?

Meantime...

Lincoln, Washington, US Grant...

Do they have strees named for them in Portland?

Ah, yes, they do....

I wonder if they ever set foot in Portland...

Oh, what about the proposal to rename 42nd Avenue? Let's see, you don't say anything about that...

Maybe you really aren't the Pinot Noir drinking Portland liberal you pretend to be...

You are not fooling anyone!
