How will nationalism be impacted by the imigration of Mexicans? Will they want to rule them selves?

So many Mexicans come to the U.S. for the opportunity to make a better life for themselves and their families. And, yes, that includes more money.\n\nThere are many Mexican doctors, lawyers, architects, professors, dentists, etc. that cross that border to come to the U.S. to make more money than their profession currently pays in Mexico. This means many MX immigrants working as bus boys, cashiers, baggers, house maids, or laborers are not accustomed to that type of work, but it pays alot more than being a doctor in Mexico.\n\nThese people come for the money, but would also be loyal to the country that gives them this opportunity. Meaning many would love to be American citizens, but the process takes such a long time.\n\nI don't think there will any "ruling themselves." They all just want a chance to make more in this country than they ever could in their home country... which is the same story of all immigrants to the U.S. throughout our history... :)

Just wait, it'll get better...my prediction is that more gangs etc. from Mexico will work on whittling away at america, bit by bit, through fun things like identity theft, maybe eventually they'll just have to cut the internet between the two countries...Mexico's bound and determined to get what they want, and they really don't have a lot of consideration for america/americans in the process of gaining that objective. Not very neighborly...

Being a legal immigrant, I must say it's about time that those Mexicans either learn the beauty of the English language, or beat it. It isn't that difficult to hold on to your heritage while respecting the country you chose to live in. For goodness' sakes, as much as I respect the Mexican Americans, why isn't the National Anthem sang in Hungarian then? Because then it would only be fair to have it in every language ever migrated to the US.

1.  They are taught from an early age that we stole their land and it is their inalienable right to get it back - it's even taught in California schools, as it seems there is no law against teaching hate in any public or private schools.\n\n2.  They are sponsored by their government to come her to colonize, not immigrate.  It's called La Reconquista.\n\n3.  The President of Mexico, Vincente Fox, has taught his people that they are not illegal, there is no such thing as an illegal Mexican in the USA because the land belongs to them anyway.\n\nMake sure you go to congress.org and tell all your representatives you feel that way.  After our jobs went overseas, now our citizenship is on the chopping block, don't be fooled.  Don't think that illegal and legal colonizing Mexicans aren' t organized and well funded, they are, don't kid yourself into believing they are all weak and need charity and a new chance in life.\n\nIt may sound weird, but I have the links to back up everything here and more. \n\nTell your leaders NO AMNESTY, DEPORT THEM ALL, ENOFRCE OUT LAWS, PROTECT OUR BORDERS AND OUR DIVERSITY.  Mexico says in about 20 years all politicians in California alone will all be Hispanic.  Where's the diversity in that, let alone their La Reconquista?\n\nRandee: (Again) I have with many many of them.  And no, they don't all want to become citizens.  They tell me about Atzlan and colonization.  And many more that I don't know keep it alive in the news and on their websites.  Perhaps it is you that don't have your facts straight.

I will probably go to my local Mexican cantina and whoop it up with my Mexican brothers and sisters, eat carne asada and drink Corona. It is a FIESTA!, anything but focus on the recent immigration debate, that can be done on another day.

As a hispanic I do find offense to it, not necessarily because of what it represents but because of the misinterpretation that it causes. It does cause some confusion to some...I mean why would a person who wants to become a U.S. citizen still have strong nationalism for the country that they wish to escape the hardships of? But from another perspective I believe that the Mexican flag provides comfort and familiarity to those that are on this journey. I think they should wave both.

Mexico is two faced. these are laws that the Mexican govenmnet has over its country. When I read them, I was schocked and I think more people need to be aware.\n\n\nImmigration Laws (for Mexico)\n\n   1. If you migrate to this county, you must speak the native language.\n   2. You have to be a professional or an investor. No unskilled workers allowed.\n   3. There will be no special bilingual programs in the schools, no special ballots for elections, all government business will be conducted in our language.\n   4. Foreigners will NOT have the right to vote, no matter how long they are here.\n   5. Foreigners will NEVER be able to hold political office.\n   6. Foreigners will not be a burden to the taxpayers. No welfare, no food stamps, no health care, or other government assistance programs.\n   7. Foreigners can invest in this country, but it must be an amount equal to 40,000 times the daily minimum wage.\n   8. If foreigners do come and want to buy land, that will be okay, BUT options will be enforced. You are not allowed waterfront property. That is reserved for citizens naturally born into this country.\n   9. Foreigners may not protest; no demonstrations, no waving a foreign flag, no political organizing, no bad-mouthing our president or his policies. if you do, you will be sent home.\n  10. If you do come to this country illegally, you will be hunted down and sent straight to jail.

I'll take a shot at it, if you don't mind Ma'am! They are looking for anything to gain sympathy and portray themselves as victims. They are extremely cunning, as their real intent is to take over by sheer population. Putting up a wall will stop them from doing this. They also feel that this is their land, much as the Palestinians feel that Israel is rightfully theirs. Their propaganda machines are in overdrive right now, as this is a make or break time for them. The Mexicans really hate us, and I think it is them that we should be wary of. Americans have seemed reasonable in their attitudes and responses to these people, but it is them - they are full of hatred and rage. To me, someone with that much hatred is a much stronger candidate to participate in an extermination or genocide.

Yes.  It will continue to be ignored.  We are being taken over from within.  The Mexican government knows this and encourages it's citizens to illegally enter the U.S.  The only reason it's tolerated by politicians is that U.S. Company's will continue to have a source of cheap labor.  Think about it, they don't pay these people even the minimum wage.  They receive no benefits.  They are paid under the table so they also collect welfare benefits.  75% of the country want the borders closed, but the politicians continue to fiddle while the country burns.  At this rate, we will become North Mexico within 40 years.

I'd say Mexicans are the backbone of Mexico.

This is a great question.  I think it would help. It would be a positive move.  I think people would be alot more responsive.  I know I would be.  And I have to tell you, I have been very negative since the boycott.  They need to try to blend in alot more.  That is why we are called the great melting pot.  Love your culture, but if you want to become a citizen of another country, you have to adapt.  People are more accepting of others if they aren't making demands all the time.  These Latino power leaders, in my opinion are leading their people down the wrong path.

How do Mexicans feel about paying taxes?

I believe there will be riots...but I think that they will be in Mexico. I think that the people of Mexico deserve to live a life of prosperity in their own country and not have to uproot themselves and flee in the guise of a better life in a foreign land.
