Of course Mexico doesn’t want to stop illegal immigration, aka their #2 source of revenue. Rather than begging for amnesty for his rejected underclass, he should work to improve his own country. I’m appalled that Calderon was given a platform to spew his criticisms of our country. It’s even more disgusting that members of Congress gave him a standing ovation for his disparaging comments.

Agreed. This country is spiraling quickly although it's defeat will not be met by positive contentions of the American people. Politicians should be very wary of their platforms right about now. And if that doesn't work...well.....

I think it's more like 98.9% of Mexico doesn't want to stop it's citizens from invading our country. And, why do they have so many kids? I know most of them are Catholic, but, good grief, I'm tired of paying for their babies to be born!

Only 67%? It should 100%, because Mexico obviously wants their poor to come here. If Mexico's poor couldn't come here, Mexico would have far more serious social unrest and less remittance money.

Mexico's elite deserve most of the blame , because if they had a equitable society and worked towards justice, Mexicans would not have to risk life and limb coming here.
