It's very easy for these "patriotic" Mexican nationalists because for all their Mexican pride, they aren't being asked to support Mexico in any way. See what happens to that pride if they were expected to pay income taxes to support their beloved Mexico or were expected to give military service.

It's a shallow love they have for Mexico and they despise the USA but the USA is what feeds them.
Another great post!

I have watched both Univision and Telemundo (which is another major Spanish language network, not aired in many areas). Univision is more oriented towards the illegal, legal Mexican audience. Their stories are usually about "poor" illegal immigrants and all about Mexico. Telemundo is more Cuban, Puerto Rican friendly, and less about illegals, they are more about what is happenning in the USA.

Thus, the race card is all they have left.

How can Mexicans or hispanics play the race card? Mexican is a nationality NOT A RACE. Hispanics are an ethnic group (multiracial)

calls on Barack Obama to stop the immigration raids.

Oh, good...next the drug dealers and the child pornographers will ask the president to stop stings and raids on them, too.

Hispanics are NOT an ethnic group. We are a cultural and linguistic group. Hispanics come in all colors and races.

Sharing cultural and linguistic characteristics is part of what makes an ETHNIC GROUP. and YES is a multiracial group I already mentioned that.
So what's your point?

Depends on who is defining 'ethnicity' in all fairness.

In the eyes of a Mexican, etc. national my ethnicity would be American since I was born/raised here in the USA--------never mind that my father is from Hungary.

Along those lines: I have met several English people who were Black-------I perceive their ethnicity as British despite being of sub Saharan African lineage.

I think you have wrong information. It is clearly an exageration that Mexico wants the states back. Mexico is not asking for the land back and Mexican immigrants in this country are not asking to be part of Mexico but rather part of the U.S. La Raza, as I understand, is a U.S. organization and has no affiliation with Mexico. It is also important to note that the protests are organized by citizens and not illegals.
