Oh, you might want to consult some of your military geniues there and ask them the effective radius that a couple of Battalions can cover, and don't forget the logistics types that you will need to support them...then compare that to the Mexican border.

The BP has most of the border effectively covered. We need rapid reaction troops to cover the hotspots. We need intel, surveillance equipment, processing, etc. And you're not taking into account the psychological effect this action would have on potential border intruders. If we acted half way serious about securing our borders most potential intruders would not even make the attempt.
