Yet none of the Mexican-American political outfits in this country, La Raza, MALDEF, etc., could bring themselves to publicly castigate the ruling party. I'd say the same for a bunch of Mexican American columnists writing for newspapers here as well.
Absolutely shameful.

That’s because La Raza and MALDEF are nothing more than Mexican elites just like Mexico’s ruling party. They are twin sisters. Both have a VERY vested interest in using the “street illegal” here as a “pack mule” for their special
interests.
For La Raza and MALDEF the street illegal is a pathway to political power through future DemoRAT votes. People like Janet Merguia, who runs La Raza, would piss on those illegals form on high. They are just peasants to her, same
as they are to the Mexican Government.
For the Mexican “Government”, the illegal is nothing more than a peasant sending money back to Mexico to finance its pathetic economy. if it wasn’t for that money stream the Mexican Government could not give a rats A$$ what happens
to these illegals.
The Mexican ruling party is the PAN, not the PRI.
One reason to admit this, of the part of the PRI, is that the present drug war began when the PAN took effective control from the PRI, and attempted to enforce the law.
I guess some in the PRI think they can make political hay by promising to make peace in the drug war by reviving the old policies.
