Eying the results so far in the U.S. presidential primary race, Mexican President Felipe Calderon said he is hopeful that the next administration in Washington will usher in reforms that would legalize the status of Mexican immigrants.

“It seems to me that the most radical and anti-immigrant candidates have been left behind and have been put in their place by their own electorate,” Calderon told the Los Angeles Times on Wednesday, the day after the Super Tuesday primaries.

“My hope is that whoever the next president is, and whoever is in the new Congress, will have a broader and more comprehensive view” of the immigration problem.

Calderon said he took heart from the Super Tuesday results, but did not mention specific candidates, the Times reported.

Calderon is about to embark on a 5-day U.S. trip that will end in California, where he is scheduled to meet with Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and migrant groups.

Calderon said one goal of his U.S. trip would be to generate support for immigration reform that would permit millions of Mexican to work in the U.S.

He also told the Times that Americans would “sooner or later” come to understand that the health of the American economy is linked to integration with Mexico and “greater freedom in labor markets.”

This election has been about securing Pro-Amnesty candidates, so, there is no other choice to vote for that can win.

If conservatives decide to support McCain they need to write up a 'legal binding' contract, including everything McCain has promised the last few days, in exact detail and publically put it in his face soon!

That he will do certain things, especially illegal immigration and securing the borders.

Any comments?

Why isn’t this bonehead worried about his people staying in Mexico? Oh, yeah, that’s right, they send BILLIONS of US dollars home so why give that up?! But if all the illegals become citizens, will they still be wanting to send that money home when they can bring along the rest of their families for a better life in the US?? Ack!!

[NormsRevenge]

a comforting thought.. ouch.

unfortunately not held just by folks south of the border.. but by many in high elected offices across this land.

My new tagline tells my point of view.

Sounds good. No more "read my lips".

Regarding Calderon... he can go to hell.

[rightinthemiddle]

What does that say when the President of a country wants his people to stay in another country?

What does that say about the people who are here?

[CottonBall]

If conservatives decide to support McCain they need to write up a 'legal binding' contract, including everything McCain has promised the last few days, in exact detail and publically put it in his face soon!

He has said he would sign AB2611 - his massive amnesty bill - again. Do you really want THAT promise?

I wouldn't trust him one bit on this. Our best bet is lots of conservatives in congress and a Dem in the WH that they would oppose.

[SwinneySwitch]

Ping!

If you want on, or off this S. Texas/Mexico ping list, please FReepMail me.

SB2611==AB2611

[msnpatriot]

I think your right!

It says CONQUEST.

[rabscuttle385]

Since when is our government run from Mexico City?

[TLI]

They just can’t keep their mouth shut, can they?

In a wide-ranging interview, Felipe Calderon sees a better chance for illegal alien immigrants to gain legal status in the next administration.

President Felipe Calderon said Wednesday that... a new administration in Washington will help bring a "comprehensive reform law" that would legalize the status of Mexican illegal alien immigrants.

"It seems to me that the most radical and anti-illegal alien immigrant candidates have been left behind and have been put in their place by their own electorate," Calderon said.

he is to meet Los Angeles, California Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and migrant illegal alien groups' representatives assembled by the nine Mexican consulates in California.

"No matter their illegal alien immigration status, they are human beings with dignity and rights that should be respected. We are working, with the full effort of the government, to bring a halt to the campaigns that harass illegal alien migrants."

Calderon said one goal of his trip, which will include a talk Monday at Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government, was to build public support for an illegal alien immigration reform law that would allow millions of illegal alien Mexicans to work in the U.S.

***********

Work in the U.S.? The mouthy little azzhole needs to forget making stupid remarks about Americans and start thinking about keeping his own little third-world nation from starving to death.

Despite criticisms from farmers that the North American Free Trade Agreement is ruining Mexican agriculture and spurring migration to the U.S., Calderon said he remained a firm believer in the power of free markets to improve the lot of Mexico's rural poor.

So, Felipe Calderon is also a liar. Mexican rural farmers are protesting in mass in Mexico City, big time. This isn’t just a few p.o`ed farmers the city was packed. The video is in Spanish, but it does not take much understanding to see exactly what our wonderful NAFTA has done. In addition, it is the policies of the Mexican government that have caused the US to have to support 35 million mexicans and Felipe Calderon has every intention of keeping that ball rolling. Short of Iran, Felipe Calderon is the biggest enemy of the United States right now and John McCain is his amnesty butt-boy.

All this from the guy that “no doubt” he won the race in Mexico City, July 2, 2006 by the heady margin of 0.58% and refused a recount. The guy that when installed as President of mexico he was damn near beaten by mobs of his "constituents" that did not want him anywhere near the Presidency (sound familiar?)

Just an hour before the ceremony, deputies seized the speaker's platform and blocked the doors of the chamber.

Members of the left-wing Democratic Revolution Party say Mr Calderon, a conservative, won July's poll by fraud.

The row followed an unusual midnight ceremony in which the outgoing president handed power to Mr Calderon.

Yep, that is a "row" alright. Mr Calderon, "man of the people". What a joke.

And just check out the lineup that attended despite the security being nearly OUT of control...

The Honorable Antonio O. Garza, United States Ambassador to Mexico
The Honorable Alberto R. Gonzales, Attorney General of the United States
The Honorable Carlos M. Gutierrez, Secretary of Commerce

In addition there were the following in attendance at the semi-secret midnight inauguration.

"Among foreign guests invited to the inauguration ceremony will be former U.S. President George W. Bush Senior,
Canadian Prime Minister Stephan Harper,
Crown Prince Felipe of Spain,
Argentine President Nestor Kichner,
Colombian President Alvaro Uribe Velez,
and presidents from a number of Central American countries.

Quite a little lineup to see to it Felipe Calderon is installed as President of mexico. Since when does a mexican president attend a private inauguration of an American President? And with NO security threat? But somehow it was deemed necessary for an American President to attend a semi-secret midnight inauguration oath for a Mexican president! One that would make Secret Service Agents have nightmares. One that was the biggest joke so far this century!

And this is the very same Felipe Calderon that now declare American conservative United States Presidential candidates have been "have been put in their place."

Wrong move Felipe. VERY bad move.

The little tyrants just can not keep their mouths shut can they? And that is always the giveaway to their true nature and intention. Mouthing off.

Kind of like John McCain telling "everybody to Shut up."

[SolidWood]

Our best bet is lots of conservatives in congress and a Dem in the WH that they would oppose.

We can't stomach a Dem in the WH who would chicken out of the Middle East. Better lots of conservatives in Congress who would oppose McCain on issues like immigration. They did it with Bush, and by concetrating our efforts on supporting conservatives for Congress we can stave off McCains worst excesses.

[DoughtyOne]

I've made my decision and it does not include...

[Joe Boucher]

I wonder if our next president will be a lackey for the Mexicans as much as this one has been?

[Kellis91789]

Of course Calderon wants amnesty in America. Why wouldn’t he ? Mexicans will be sending billions home to Mexico, while the US spends $400B/yr on all the social safety-net programs the newly legalized Mexicans are suddenly eligible for.

McAmnesty is more dangerous to our spending budget and leftward drift than Hillary is. At least Republicans in Congress would FIGHT Hillary !

[pallis]

The open borders people have won a huge victory today. The floodgates have been opened at the border, and the subsidized labor is going roll right over us. Let them come, stealing, raping, breaking into our homes, stealing our cars, killing our animals, crashing on our streets, loading up our emergency rooms and classrooms, and taking our jobs. It’s what this nation wants. Eliminate the border with Mexico, and let these pukes have it all.

[Spok]

“What does that say when the President of a country wants his people to stay in another country?”

Good question. There are only two possibilities; 1) they are undesireable and he doesn’t want them in his country, or 2) they’re here to work his will. Neither answer is good for America.

Shouldn’t the headline read, “Mexico defeats United States in Second Mexican-American War, Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo expected by november, whereby the US will cede it’s southwest to Mexico, but will continue to pay for it.”
