“Today we begin a new dialogue about our shared future, a future of promising potential if we work together to solve the challenges we both face. It is fitting that we convene this summit where the great, meandering river known as the Rio Grande – or the Rio Bravo – forms the long border between Texas and Mexico. In years past, that famed body of water has been seen by many as a dividing point, If you were to walk along its banks and look to the other side, based on the stereotypes of the past, you would think you were seeing things a million miles away, instead of a stone’s throw away. But I am here today to say that while we have honest differences, there is more that unites us than divides us. The Rio Grande does not separate two nations, it joins two peoples. Mexico and the United States have a shared history, and a common future. And it is along this border where we will either fail or succeed in addressing the education, health care and transportation needs of our two peoples.”

How’s that? There’s more, if that won’t do it.

Sorry but that is not a call for open borders.

Would someone please explain to me what unites and joins the US and Mexico besides mutual distrust?

These Perry-bots just don’t want to believe his record.

Anyway, he’s toast, just as I predicted last month. I didn’t believe he could hold on after mid Septenber.

Records refuse to hide.
