And at one point, remarkably, our contemporary debate was even flipped: Hordes of Americans wanted to escape their bleak prospects for a better lifeand the place they wanted to flee to was Mexico. Story Continued Below
But Mexico didnt want them. The story unfolded in the late 19th century, in the form of a little-known black migration scheme to the low-lying, underdeveloped parts of south and central MexicoVeracruz, Oaxaca, Guerrero, Michoacán and San Luis Potosiand was spearheaded by a man sparingly remembered by history. He intended to relocate thousands of black families to start a new colony in Mexico, which would have radically changed the demographics and the economy of that region, if not all of Mexico. The plan provoked sensationalist, often racist, reports in the Mexican pressone warned of a race warand fiery fights in the countrys Senate.

See liberals, America was forced to improve black living standards because the blacks couldn't just cross the border. Mexico needs to improve their standards; get rid of corruption and drug cartels so Mexicans aren't pouring into our country and taking our jobs.
Also, its not racist to want to avoid constantly changing demographics, as Mexico once wanted to do, and many Americans want to do. Its called "stability."

Those gringo retirees hire Mexican maids, cleaners, cooks, gardeners and chauffeurs.
If we said "no" their drug industry would collapse overnight.
Es la verdad, dad.
Gringo money is dwarfed by money Mexicans in the US (legal and illegal) send back to family in Mexico.
Black folks are getting run out of their neighborhoods in Compton, Inglewood, and South Central LA by Mexicans, no surprise they had problems down south, as well !
“... why can’t America be against open borders for illegal Mexicans?>>>”
America IS against the open borders...It’s the crooked, corrupted “professional politicians” who are keeping it open....
They've been sore ever since.
We had an old black neighborhood here. Had always been black. Now when you drive through all you see are Mexican moms pushing strollers with 2-3 other kids following along.
My cousin lives in San Pedro, not too far from there is a dividing line, forgot which street, but Black kids don’t dare walk on the wrong side walk, lest they be shot.
There were lot of Blacks living in Yucatan at one time but they all pretty much disappeared.

They send back some $30 billion. Tax that at 10 or 20% and it can pay for building the wall.
Mexico gets gringo dollars (billions of them) wired home from transient workers in America.
Mexico never protected nor occupied the North America. Spain did to some degree, but Mexico didn’t.
The estimate I read was nine billion U.S. dollars by Mexicans (both legal and illegal) in America sent back to Mexico. Probably close. Our fault since we hire them.
