Presidente Felipe Calderon (translated):
"...As it has been stated by President Obama, this morning we held a broad and fruitful dialogue... We analyzed different proposals and visions on the side of Mexico and the United States to strengthen North America as a region...
We talked about.. solving our differences and trade problems in the fastest possible way. We covered the border topics such as security, migration, and we also examined initiatives to consolidate our cooperation in global scenarios and global interests...
Continues...
I can highlight here that the areas where we agree are broader than our differences. There’s a broad convergence of interest. And this is not only given to the fact that we share common goals, but there is a will in both of us to turn the fact of being neighbors into a partnership that will act as a leveler for shared development...
Fortunately, the serious economic global crisis is giving up. --not sure what he means-- This opens up a window of opportunity for Canada, the United States and Mexico to re-position Mexico and North America as a vigorous region...
In reference to the migratory issue..., I... look for a comprehensive solution that will be respectful of the rights of the individual and will be adjusting itself in a realistic way to the needs of both our economies...
In Mexico, we are and will continue being respectful of the internal policies of the United States...But we will retain our firm rejection to criminalize migration so that people that work and provide things to this nation will be treated as criminals. ...we oppose firmly S.B. 1070 Arizona law given in fair principles that are partial and discriminatory..."

Did he look into his eyes, or eyeball his pants ?
When will we have a president who represents American interests?
Duhhh. Anyone who can not see this coming is blind.
I seriously doubt this. Calderon is from the conservative party, and is the first Mexican president ever to take on the drug trade and corruption (which is exactly why it has exploded, because nobody ever bothered them before).
Obama wouldn’t want to mess up his coke supply...
One commie to another, sees eye to eye.
Calderon is probably laughing all the way back to Mexico City. He must have realized how weak 0 is, with respect to foreign policy. My guess is that there will some announcement regarding increased funding for Mexico for some program, or another. I wonder which third world president will come to get more of our money?
“A partnership that will act as a leveler”?
What? WHAT???
"Criminalize migration"? What the hell does that mean? I'll tell you what it means: Obama thinks that the United States has no defensible borders; that anyone who crosses them is merely a "migrant" rather than a law breaker; and that such persons are entitled to full American citizenship regardless of their attachment to our values and Constitution.
If I tried to enter Mexico today, surreptitiously and without a passport, do you think that the Mexican government would consider me to be a "migrant", much less deserving of the trappings and protections of Mexican citizenship (such as they are)?
Never mind that my ass would rot in prison until I could cobble together enough money to pay off a corrupt lawyer and a slew of "officials" on the payroll of some Sinaloa drug lord. Neither my own government nor that of Mexico would recognize my status as anything other than a common criminal.
Son of a bitch.
The Liberal Free Trader Globalists have friends in Obama and Calderon. Aint that sweet...
The scary thing is that we have nutjobs (some who post on here) that totally agree with Obama and Calderon on the NAU, NAFTA, and the Amero....while the US is bailing out the failed Liberal Free Trader Globalists in Greece and Europe
StupidNomics never seems to die
The smart thing to do is to abrogate NAFTA, shut down the Mexican border, and work with individual nations in regard to any trade
“we held a broad and fruitful dialogue”.....
You two are so sweeeeet!....
throw the sleaqzy mexican back
He had a “true partner” in GW also! Remember the attempt to dissolve the borders between the US, Mexico, and Canada that was uncovered by Tancredo? That shadow government is probably still in place since every executive order signed by President Bush in the guise of “Homeland Security” was handed off to the commie-in-chief; with a nod and a smile, I might add.
hey, El Presidente...little tip for ya...if Barney Frank ever says he sees you as a True Partner, Run!
LOL! Hey, remember when Fidel Castro approved Obama’s turn to overhaul healthcare? You know that means real, real trouble, when you have Castro’s stamp of approval.
I think Obama is still working on winning over Hugo Chavez... He’s a tough nut, after all he might have finished reading his book by now and I’m sure that maybe’s earned him some points by now.
