If that were the case, and there was no notion of reconquista intent, or the mythical homeland of Atzlan, or if illegal aliens from Mexico had not made this assertion then how would the marketing folk at Absolut have come up with this idea? The fact is that because they considered this as a marketing ploy, it must be fairly evident and available. This absolut ad does nothing more than to prove the intentions of illegal aliens from Mexico. Their intentions are so strong that a vodka company, whose primary demographic does not include them found out that this feeling was so strong amongst them they would include it in an ad! No more saying that this idea of Aztlan is imaginary.
This is the most salient of all points. How does a Swedish company come up with this idea if it isn't there within the Mexican culture and within their agenda.
