"Mexican President Vicente Fox says Mexican migrant workers in the U.S. "are doing jobs that not even blacks want to do.""

Does anybody have this portion of Fox's speech in Spanish? I would like to read the original Spanish text.

The following is from Congressional Hispanic Caucus Responds to Divisive Remarks by President Fox It only quotes one sentence of Fox's sppech, but maybe that will give you a starting point for a Google search for the rest of the speech.

To be clear, these words were reported as: "Los mexicanos están haciendo trabajos que ni siquiera los negros quieren hacer allá, en Estados Unidos". We believe that the problem is not that your statements were misinterpreted, but that they were rightly perceived and unintentionally imply a class system based on race that we simply reject.

"...this portion of Fox's speech in Spanish?"

Univision Online - 16 de Mayo de 2005
Acusan a Fox de comentarios racistas

"...El viernes, en un acto público, Fox dijo: "No hay duda de que los mexicanos y las mexicanas, llenos de dignidad, de voluntad y de capacidad de trabajo, están haciendo trabajos que ni siquiera los negros quieren hacer allá en Estados Unidos"...

"The text of the speech in Spanish."

No hay duda que los mexicanos y las mexicanas, llenos de dignidad, de voluntad y de capacidad de trabajo, están haciendo trabajos que ni siquiera los negros quieren hacer allá, en Estados Unidos", dijo Fox durante una gira por estados del Pacífico mexicano.

Link to Spanish commentary

Doubt anyone will find the Transcribed speech since Fox and his enablers are doing their best to cover it up. Spanish to english word translaters seem to loose a bit in the process so it took me a while to piece this first hand quote together.
