Big Al: "I think we need to sit down and have a respectful relationship with Mexico, where we deal with them as a partner."

How do we have a respectful relationship with a country that actively encourages its citizens to break the law and enter our country illegally? Seems like Mexico has a total lack of respect (or is it open disdain?) for our sovereignty.

Well, that's obvious. My comment is that Al Sharpton's position is more, er, nuanced. Blacks and illegal Mexican immigrants don't always mix well, because they are (statistically speaking) competing for some of the same public resources.
