New Mexican President Wants Veto Power over US
Immigration Policy

Calderon’s Plans For U.S. Immigration Policy

It’s official. Felipe Calderon has been declared the
president-elect of Mexico and is scheduled to take
office on December 1st.
Calderon was declared the winner of the election on
September 5th, 2006, and the very next day he was on
the telephone with George Bush.

What does Calderon want from us?

Well, among other things: a "migratory accord"*giving
Mexico veto power over U.S. immigration policy.

An immigration accord was a goal of Mexican President
Vicente Fox, whose term is almost over. Fox didn’t
actually achieve the accord but he was able to
accomplish a lot through meddling in U.S. immigration
policy, while he should have been concentrating on
other things, like improving Mexico’s economy.

So with the passing of the baton to Calderon, the game
goes on.
On September 7th, Calderon told foreign correspondents
that an immigration accord with the U.S. is one of his
top priorities. His strategy is to persuade members of
the U.S. Congress that an immigration accord would be
in the interests of both the U.S. and Mexico.
Calderon’s goal is to achieve such an accord before
the end of the Bush administration, that is, by
January 20th, 2009. [El Siglo de Torreon, Luchará
Calderón por acuerdo migratorio con Bush , September.
7th, 2006]

Calderon believes that the Bush Administration is
ready to help, and he’s surely right on that score. On
immigration, Bush and Calderon are in agreement
already.

"We will work intensely over the next two years to
arrive at a concrete agreement." declared Mexico’s
president-elect to foreign reporters.
Like all Mexican politicians, Calderon admitted that
Mexico needs to create more jobs In Mexico. He was
quoted as saying:

"Every year, more than 1.2 million Mexican youths
reach working age. Many, facing a lack of
alternatives, go looking for opportunities in the
United States.

We can’t ignore it, we can’t write a law making it
disappear. We have to find ways to improve things.
That is not only in the interest of Mexico, but also a
U.S. interest." [ Mexican President-Elect To Press
U.S. Reforms | Mexican Wants Deal During Bush's Term,
By Will Weissert, Associated Press, September 8, 2006]

I agree - a more prosperous Mexico would be in the
interests of the United States.

But as long as mass emigration exists, what real
incentive do Mexico’s leaders have to reform the
economy? Emigration has become, in effect, Mexico’s
economic policy.

The best way for the U.S. to help Mexico would be to
close the border.
Calderon is not even president yet and is already
planning U.S. immigration policy. There’s nothing
surprising about this.

As I have pointed out in previous articles, all the
major candidates in the Mexican election had the same
view on immigration.
During the campaign, Calderon called on U.S.
Congressmen to halt the "irrationality" of HR4437
because it goes against the rights of "migrants". As a
candidate he expressed solidarity with Mexicans in the
U.S., and said they are not criminals and that they
contribute to the economy of the U.S. Calderon said
the Mexicans in the U.S. are fighting for their human
rights, labor rights and political rights.

Candidate Calderon said that "Immigration is not
solved by a wall". Discussing the proposed border
fence, Calderon joked that "We'll jump over it
anyway." So much for respecting U.S. sovereignty.
Calderon is pro-NAFTA and wants to take it farther .
Here’s what he said:

"In the coming two decades, I envision the whole North
American region ... as a single region with a free
market, not just in goods and services and
investments, but also a free labor market. The region
could be like the European Union." [ Calderon vows to
look U.S. in the eye, My San Antonio.com, Sean
Mattson, April 3, 2006]
President Bush must be very happy about this, because
it all fits in with his North American Union agenda.

On June 6th, a Mexican presidential debate was held,
and one of the topics on the agenda was "Migratory
Foreign Policy" . That is, American migratory policy,
not Mexican migratory policy!
In that debate Calderon called for a migratory accord
to legalize Mexican illegal aliens in the U.S. and a
guest worker program. The candidate promised to
"defend all our paisanos" (i.e., meddle on behalf of
illegal aliens).

Besides the famous migratory accord, Calderon proposed
another accord, in which the U.S. and Canada would
finance development in poor regions of Mexico.

But why should U.S. taxpayers finance both Mexican
development and mass immigration to the U.S.?

Calderon’s agenda is clear. Mexico’s president-elect
plans to keep his northern border open and to attain
veto power over U.S. immigration policy.

Will Calderon succeed?

The real answer to that question lies on the northern
side of the border. We already know President Bush
shares Calderon’s agenda. What about Congress?

And what about the American people?

Is this guy nuts or what? He has no control over our laws in this country and we are going to throw his mexican national illegal aliens out of our country and he can deal with them. Stop that flow of american dollars into his country while Mexico lets them suck off of american taxpayers. This is going to end. He had better start thinking about what his country is going to do when they get all of these freeloaders back.

Candidate Calderon said that "Immigration is not
solved by a wall". Discussing the proposed border
fence, Calderon joked that "We'll jump over it
anyway." So much for respecting U.S. sovereignty.

It really is time to tell Congress we need troops on the border.

He has no control over our laws, but he like Vincente Fox control the White House...and WE need to find out why and how that came to be. mY guess is the merger...the merger has been planned for a long long time and Mexico seems to be getting anxious for their piece of the pie.

that or Vincente has something on Bush and others that they don't want to get out. I have wondered about the possibility of black mail. Who knows!

We will work intensely over the next two years to
arrive at a concrete agreement." declared Mexico’s
president-elect to foreign reporters.

You can work all you want Mr. Cool. You're not going to finagle around the American people.

Listen Next Crazy Mexican President, we have plenty of practice with that corrupt and coniving government of yours down there.

Back off, Buddy !!

Why can they not fight for their human rights, labor rights and political rights in Mexico............WHERE THEY BELONG

they are not criminals

Really? Read OUR Immigration Laws, Mr. Calderon.

We can’t ignore it, we can’t write a law making it
disappear

WE? WE? Mexico writes Mexico's laws. WE as you refer to OUR laws don't have a thing to do with you, Mr. Calderon. I do have to agree with you one thing you said, Mr. Calderon..WE, as you refer to Mexico, I assume.........CANNOT WRITE A US LAW MAKING IT DISAPPEAR.

I speak for myself here when I say I am fed up with the Illegal Aliens, the Mexican and US Government shoving the Illegals down my throat.
I may be wrong, but I don't think the American people are going to put up with much more of them.
The US Government, The Mexican Government and the Illegal Aliens have overlooked one very important issue here.
NEVER UNDER ESTIMATE THE POWER NOR THE WRATH OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. THE LEGAL AMERICAN PEOPLE..
