This is the kind of talk that even get fence sitters pissed off. Here is the Mexican President during his State of the Nation address today:
President Felipe Calderon blasted U.S. immigration policies on Sunday and promised to fight harder to protect the rights of Mexicans in the U.S., saying “Mexico does not end at its borders.” The criticism earned Calderon a standing ovation during his first state-of-the nation address.
~~~“We strongly protest the unilateral measures taken by the U.S. Congress and government that have only persecuted and exacerbated the mistreatment of Mexican undocumented workers,” he said. “The insensitivity toward those who support the U.S. economy and society has only served as an impetus to reinforce the battle … for their rights.”
He also reached out to the millions of Mexicans living in the United States, many illegally, saying: “Where there is a Mexican, there is Mexico.”
So the next time I head to Mexico I can put my foot down and declare that I am now in the United States? Ok, maybe I won’t go that far but I will damn sure demand free medical care, some welfare from the Government, and while your at it, some free schooling. Oh, and I demand you learn English because I damn sure won’t be learning Spanish. The nerve of you Mexicans to try to push me to learn Spanish.
This commenter at Hot Air has it down to a mathematical formula:
Calderon states that “wherever there is a Mexican, that is Mexico.” Mathematically, then, Mexico consists of any set containing a Mexican. Or, a Mexican (Mn) is assured to be contained in the set Mexico (Mx), because the set consists of all locations where the number of Mexicans present is greater than zero.
So, we have { Mn ∈ Mx : Mn > 0 } — but we also know that the United States (Us) is not Mexico ( Us != Mx ). Thus we must conclude that Mn ∉ Us and the number of Mexicans in the United States is an empty set.
{ Mn ∈ Us : Mn > 0} = ∅
Therefore, there are no Mexicans in the United States. QED
Guess that means problem solved.

First with the Spanish language thing, it gives you the options of choosing 1 or 2 on the phone thing. Sort of expanded options and all that.
Ok we now have border jumpers validated by their own man at home and we shouldn’t react.
It’s not just that they are bad enough with all that ties into that but even more we have a black community that is pulling the reverse assimilation thing and walking their dog away from being Americans first and their ethnic group second. Witness the term Afro-American.
They are doing themselves no favor by doing this.
Polish American clubs and German American clubs may survive one or two more generations but after that it will be down to a hardcore few generations removed from the reason for their existence.
But the Blacks are walking the other way and the Spanish decedents of the illegals have a whole different take on it from those who came in through the system for the right reasons.
We live in interesting times, and will die in the same ones.
In between life exists.
“Therefore, there are no Mexicans in the United States. QED”
Doesn’t solve the problem – it makes all those who we’ve been calling “illegal immigrants” US citizens! That _doesn’t_ solve the problem!
Although…
it could give rationalization to _not_ having “press 1 or press 2” because if they’re not Mexican, they shouldn’t be speaking spanish…
we could block sending any US$$$ to Mexico unless it was a taxable transaction because they’re not Mexicans any more…
we can now give everybody driving licenses and _get their fingerprints_ and photographs on record!
There _must_ be some other bennies we could get out of this, short of declaring war on Mexico…though that could be an option, since obviously they’re invading the US with official Mexican government approval…
OMG! The President of Mexico doesn’t like U.S. immigration policy??? We better reform, and fast! I propose:
1. Subject the immigration of foreigners to the methods the U.S. deems relevant, and to achieve the best assimilation of these immigrants to the national environment and their adequate distribution in U.S. territory.
2. The U.S. will establish, subject to the corresponding demographic studies, the number of foreigners whose entrance to the country may be permitted, whether by activities or zone of residence, and will subject to the methods that it deems relevant the immigration of foreigners, according to their possibilities of contributing to the national progress.
3. The U.S. may deny to foreigners the entrance into the country or a change in immigration status for any of the following reasons:
I. When there is no international reciprocity.
II. When the national demographic equilibrium demands it.
III. When the quotas don’t permit it. (“The U.S. will establish, subject to the corresponding demographic studies, the number of foreigners whose entrance to the country may be permitted, whether by activities or zone of residence, and will subject to the methods that it deems relevant the immigration of foreigners, according to their possibilities of contributing to the national progress.”)
IV. When it is considered harmful to the economic interests of Americans.
V. When they (the immigrants) have broken the laws of the U.S. or have criminal antecedents abroad.
VI. When they have broken this [immigration] law, its regulations or other applicable administrative orders in the matter, or if they don’t comply with the established requirements.
VII. If they are not physically or mentally healthy in the judgment of the health authority, or are prevented by other legal orders.
The U.S. is authorized to suspend or forbid the admission of foreigners, when it is determined to be in the national interest.
Mexico shouldn’t object. Those are, after all, THEIR immigration laws.
Gosh, and we should emulate their penalties too:
Illegal entry is a federal crime (delito) penalized with imprisonment for up to two years, a fine from three hundred to five thousand Mexican Pesos (US$27.32 to US$455.47), and deportation.
The General Population Act provides imprisonment for up to ten years, a fine of up to five thousand pesos (US$455.47), and deportation against an alien who, after being deported, enters the Mexican territory again without having obtained readmission authorization.
a prison term of up to six years, fines of up to five thousand pesos (US$455.47), and deportation must be imposed upon a foreigner who after [initially] obtaining legal authorization to enter the country, is [now] illegally in the country due to non-compliance with, or in violation of, the administrative or legal provisions upon which his stay was conditioned. [Visa overstay]
A fine of up to five thousand pesos (US$455. 47) and deportation is imposed on any alien whose immigration status has been revoked and who has not complied with orders from the Department of the Interior to leave the country within the time period set for the purpose he stated at entry.
The submission or signing of any document or petition with a signature that is false or different from the one normally used is penalized with a fine up to two hundred times the general minimum daily wage in effect in the Federal District at the time the violation is committed, or by detention for thirty-six hours if such fine is not paid.
Trafficking Illegal Persons In or Out of the Country –
The highest penalties are provided for the commission of this crime. Imprisonment between six and twelve years and a fine between one hundred and ten thousand times the general minimum dailywage in effect in the Federal District at the time the violation is committed, plus deportation when an alien is involved, is imposed upon any person who, for purposes of trafficking, either directly or trough an intermediary, transports or attempts to transport Mexican citizens or foreigners into another country without corresponding documentation. The same penalty is imposed upon any person who either directly or through others brings one or more foreigners into Mexican territory without corresponding documentation issued by an appropriate authority, or who, for purposes of trafficking, shelters or transports foreigners within the national territory to hide such persons and avoid immigration inspections.

Where There Is An American, There Is America
Imagine, for just one moment the screeching, seething volume of pure, unadulterated vitriol that would be directed at George W. Bush if he said anything even resembling that post title. The frothing rage would spew from your computer monitor …
Mexican President: “Mexico does not end at its borders.”
Mexican President Felipe Calderon said, “Mexico does not end at its borders,” and “Where there is a Mexican, there is Mexico.” We’ve know that’s what they believe, but now they have finally said it out loud, for all legal Americans
Dear Se
On the contrary, sir, unless you wish to reprise that little incident between us, Mexico does indeed stop at the border: President Felipe Calderon blasted U.S. immigration policies on Sunday and promised to fight harder to protect the rights of
