Seems that things are tightening up a little bit. Hopefully this thread won't degenerate into a knee jerk Mexican bash.

Mexico is a country with a ton of potential.

As I understand it, most right wingers is hoping the Mexican Left wing president will win. The current right wing Mexican President is a disgrace

An Obrador win will be like the Hamas win...forcing the light on what has been swept under the rug by multilateralist relativist diplomats. Hard to put a smiley face on either PRD or Hamas. Neither makes any effort to pretend to be other than what they really are.

He's not a "leftist." He's a commie.

Full of potential, yet full of corruption. They need to choose which path they will follow. Electing a Hugo Chavez wannabee is going to make things go from bad to worse.

Don't we want a lefty to win in Mexico? This type of guy might find a way to tax the $hit out of his own citizens and pay for healthcare and other stuff his fellow countrymen cannot seem to find at the moment. I am all for him winning. And if he succeeds, maybe some of the illegals will decide their former dump of a country (sorry to those offended, but they are leaving it in droves) isn't so bad after all. I say vote lefty in Mexico....it might help!

We won't bash Mexico even if a Marxist allied to Castro, Chavez, Lula and Communist China comes to power and starts bashing America as the others do.

In fact that might make life a bit easier.

"Mexico is a country with a ton of potential."

Unfortunately, it has been run throughout its history by a small clique of billionaire oligarchs for their private enrichment.

THat's why they prefer to drive their desperate underclass north into the USA, to let us pay for them.

Obrador? Didn't the Beatles have a song about him?

"...Obradee, Obrador, life goes on..."

This trend of Latin American countries electing extreme leftists does not bode well for the future. We may need to bring over some Israeli consultants on wall-building.

Yes, that may be true, but it's also a country with 104 million people. That works out to three ten-thousandths of an ounce of potential per capita.

Does Mexico have a right-wing, pro-American option? It picked up Portugal, Germany and Canada and has held on to every other major country over the past 2 years (since the Spain debacle)...

Let's have a simple bill, that declares that from now on, the US will adopt the same rules regarding illegal immigration as the states that border us.
