BocaNewsNow.com changes all “Gulf Of America” references to “Gulf of Mexico,” the internationally accepted name. We do however acknowledge that some people in some places do believe that an American president has the power to rename bodies of water.
Why not go with the legal name change? Why not be proud of our country and name as much stuff as we can to honor it? The bulk of coastline of the Gulf of America lies on American shorelines!
