Mexican president calls for immigration reform

AP 8/26/2014 7:16:11 AM

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Mexico's president spoke of the need for U.S. immigration reform on a two-day visit to immigrant-friendly California, saying those who reject diversity and inclusion will ultimately be proven wrong.

"We want to be a factor of cohesion, not division, with full respect for the sovereignty of the United States," President Enrique Pena Nieto said Monday. "This, at the end, is about — and only about — a matter of justice for those who contribute so much to the development of the American society."

Pena Nieto was welcomed by Gov. Jerry Brown, who played up his immigration credentials in a speech that highlighted the close cultural and historical ties they share across borders.

"It wasn't very long ago that the governor of California was outlawing driver's licenses for people who were undocumented from Mexico," Brown said. "That's not the law anymore."

Brown signed a bill into law last year that will enable immigrants to get driver's licenses next year. He said he got the message after a visit to a Monterey artichoke field where the workers yelled "licencia, licencia."

During an upbeat speech embracing the ties between Mexico and California, Brown didn't entirely gloss over a relationship that has, at times, been fraught with tension and he referred to past ethnic problems.

California voters in 1994 passed Proposition 187 that sought to ban immigrants who are in the country illegally from access to social services including health care and education, though it was reversed by the courts.

Hispanics have now become a force to be reckoned with in California. They now make up the largest of any racial or ethnic group in the state, though their voter registration numbers still lag behind whites.

On Tuesday, Brown will host a luncheon in the president's honor in Sacramento. Pena Nieto will then address the Legislature at the state Capitol.

Brown invited Pena Nieto to California after visiting Mexico last month and signing nonbinding agreements on trade, education and environmental cooperation. The two politicians, Mayor Eric Garcetti and community leaders addressed hundreds of enthusiastic Mexican and Mexican-American leaders at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles.

Pena Nieto criticized unethical governors who had cracked down on immigrants, though he didn't name any specifically.

"There are still states that have not evolved so much as California, that still skimp on recognition and, even worse, the rights of immigrants," he said. "Those who still believe and bet for the exclusion and discrimination or the rejection of diversity ... I only have one thing to say: the future, and a very near future, will demonstrate your ethical mistake. Time will show we're right."

Raúl Hinojosa, a professor of Chicano Studies at University of California, Los Angeles, said the visit was important during the impasse in reaching an agreement in immigration reform because it showed the cooperation between the governor of the largest state, the mayor of the second-largest city and the president of the nation that provides the most migrants.

"There's a positive way forward, in terms of working collectively, specifically, on the issues of human rights and immigrant rights on both sides of the border," Hinojosa said.

Brown made passing references to his trade mission to Mexico and the areas he agreed to work on, including efforts to help Mexico build renewable energy plants in Baja California and to find ways to shorten long waits at the Tijuana-San Diego international border crossing.

"If we can put a man on the moon, we can put a man from Mexico to California in 20 minutes," Brown said to laughter and applause.

It is the total impotence of this current administration making the world believe they can tell us how to run our country. I couldn't stand previous administration but at least the world knew where it stood and what we would not tolerate. Wake up America before it's too late

He is calling for amnesty for the rest of Mexico to come here. Interesting way to take over a country.

A Chicano Manual on How to Handle Gringos

http://www.amazon.com/Chicano-Manual...cm_cr_dpwidget

18 of 32 people found the following review helpfulA Racist Manual on How to Lie to Mexicans
By US Activist on April 17, 2006
Format: Paperback There is nothing tongue and cheek about Atzlan or the La Raza Movement. It is similar to the Nazi's after World War 1, who lost lands and wanted to reclaim them in World War 2.

As a result of the Mexican/American war that Mexico waged and LOST, the United States forgave the $3.25 million debt, and paid Mexico $15 million for the ceded territories that included

California, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and the western parts of Wyoming, Colorado, and New Mexico. This Treaty of Guadalupe-Hildago, in which Mexico abandoned its claims to the above territories, was signed on February 2nd, 1848.

Today in schools, businesses and churches in Mexico the people and students are told lies that theses ceded territories above were taken from the Mexicans, and that they have rightful ownership of them.

They are invading the United States by the millions to take back these territories sold to the US, in the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hildalgo. They are brainwashing the Mexican citizens to believe it is rightfully theirs. This is nothing less then what Hitler did to the Germans in World War 2.

Vincente Fox is like Hitler and is encouraging his citizens to invade the US and take back these ceded territories.

The United States must take this invasion seriously, and bring the military might of the US upon these Mexican invading forces. Protect our people and lands to the death !

Jose Angel Guiterrez is a radical activist, trying by racism and lies to encourage his fellow Mexicans to invade the United States. There is no humor in an invasion of your neighbors. Just ask Poland, France, Austria, etc. about this when the Nazi's marched into their countries.

Fight back US citizens...be vocal and militant ! !!!

Show Jose Angel Guiterrez his lies and racism won't work.
