"What other immigration group has ever so monopolized US immigration that Americans had to press 1 for English ??? (and had to foot the bills for translations/educations ??)"
Spanish and French have been spoken in America longer than English.
"Mexico has had the same opportunities/natural resources to become as great as the USA, & yet they remain a third world county in most of their states."
After all our illicit invasions Mexico and all the revolutions our government or citizens have promoted in Mexico including the communist revolution Mexico went thru, this nation that was once so wealthy it produced universities before the United States produced universities is now suffering for the crimes America committed against the native Americans who fled to Mexico to survive the attempt to exterminate them.
Since Mexico lost land (Texas, Arizona, California, New Mexico etc to the United States due to racist policies in Washington DC, Mexico has a lot less to work with than it once had. However, there is hope. Mexico has given the commies the bums rush out of office.
"Name any other 'head of state' that has ever marched into our White House, & made demands of our President, as to what he wanted for his illegal citizens here ?? Mexico also does not back our WOT, & *obviously* never did back the WOD."
We sometimes look like a British puppet and sometimes the British look like ours.
"Don't you think the USA might seem 'somewhat' racist, to the rest of the world, by always allowing Mexico the largest share of *instant legals* ???"
I don't care what the rest of the world thinks.
"I've got Mexicans in my family, they too are sick of this constant invasion from the south, crowded schools, crowded hospitals, & high taxes for all the freebies."
Crowded schools are the result of Democrat mismanagement. Same with the hospitals. High taxes are the result of Democrat and Republican mismanagement.
"and I'm not racist, I've always said deport ALL illegals........we've got millions waiting in lines to come legally, the FIRST"
If you are not native American your ancestors were illegal immigrants.

Interesting way to rewrite the history of Mexico. First, let's get this real clear ~ ALL the Eastern Seaboard English colonies had Sea to Sea landclaims going at the time of the American Revolution. These were ceded to the United States at the time of it's formation under the Articles of Confederation.
It's only because Spain was an ally that the US did not press it's Western land claims. However, after the Mexicans rose up against Spanish rule, all bets were off.
Texas' claim to half it's own territory was questionable in light of earlier claims to the same territory by Georgia and South Carolina anyway.
Claims that the USA simply "took" or "stole" Mexican land are too simple and do not account for all the competing claims. Even the argument that Mexico was the legitimate successor state to Spain (in the territory ascribed to Mexico) is suspect inasmuch as it would be as easy to argue that Florida was the legitimate successor state to Spain for the same territory.
Then there's the Northern border ~ the deportees from Acadia in Louisiana certainly are due some consideration, and possibly the return of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Niagara district in Ontario, and other chunks of various other Canadian provinces.
And what about the Portuguese colony in Labrador and Newfoundland? Certainly they have primacy over other claimants.
I'm waiting patiently for mine before I'll consider yours, eh?!

And the Spanish & French were taxed to accommodate the new 'English speakers' ??

Well obviously, the problems in mexico TODAY are all caused by the USA..../sarcasm
However, there is hope. Mexico has given the commies the bums rush out of office.
and from the news I read, looks like the grand 'ol PRI will be back in power again. (ya know, they always did sooo much for mexico.)
High taxes are the result of Democrat and Republican mismanagement.
Well you got one half right. However the sheeple are waking up & voting down tax increases/school bonds/illegal freebies.
If you are not native American your ancestors were illegal immigrants.
Thanks, but from my mother's side, I think I'll hang on to this Ellis Island paperwork, looks pretty legal to me.....& from my father's side, well they were mostly 'Okies', so you can probably figure that out.
