"Was talking with a guy yesterday who pointed out the fact Mexico elected a very leftist president who might nationalize the oil industry in Mexico"

The oil industry in Mexico is already run by the government. You can't nationalize it any more than it already is. Wikipedia says the date it was nationalized was back in 1938.

The point is the current president is a socialist and if he takes the road Hugo Chávez did it will create an even nastier situation on our southern border.
