Obama is elusive.No one really cares about what he has to say anymore.His supporters have been duped and he will not keep a campaign pledge to return illegals to the line.He lets it pass through Congress without a Veto.The illegals who screw the system must think he's an idiot.I am sure Hispanic,Black,Asian and White voters want him to leave today.Mexico has always been a poor and troubled country and the U.S. has no jobs for them.
Lets get educated on the relationship between US and Mexico and realize the importance that exist between them. Are we ready to compete on the global stage? We now have the European Union - India - China as up and coming. Do we need to team up and create trading block too? You bet. Get yourself educated and well informed....many countries in Europe have realized the importance of immigrants and cheap labor....quit kidding yourself...if you are worried about an immigrant taking your job...you really should be thinking of "retooling" yourself into a skilled trade. How? Education, specialization, etc...but most importantly its starts with the next generation. Parents take note and insist on high education standards and the importance of higher education. We will become a nation of knowledge workers, check out: The Next Society by Peter Drucker it will help you see where we are headed.
