Mexican president lashes out at U.S. candidates
Government to finance public relations push to change American opinions

MEXICO CITY - Mexican President Felipe Calderón has forcefully inserted himself into the U.S. presidential campaign, denouncing the candidates for demonizing Mexican immigrants and announcing that the government would finance a public relations campaign aimed at reversing Americans’ negative perceptions.

At a conference Wednesday of the Advisory Council of the Institute of Mexicans Abroad, the government’s immigrant assistance agency, Calderón lashed out at the “increasing harassmentâ€

This president of mexico needs to worry about his own country a little more. If he would streighten mexico out he would not have to depend on welfare from the United States.

What an idiot! Mexico's President needs to worry about Mexico's problems and not stick his nose into how we're trying to solve OUR problems with his citizens here illegally. Sure; I know successful LEGAL Mexicans. I don't care if someone is successful or not; if they're here ILLEGALLY, they need to be lose their job and be deported. Mexico's President is interested in the U.S. treating his citizens well and keeping them employed so they can send U.S. dollars back to Mexico. I hope no one in this country listens to the windbag! It's our country; get out and quit interfering!
