That loathsome token appointee seems to spend a lot of time in the dump south of the border working to speed up Mexico's strip-mining of the U.S.

Yeah, let's send those damn 'spics back to Mexico!!! And dismantle Little Italy while we're at it! /sarcasm

Why don't we hear what a real American has to say:

Later, as she dined on quesadillas at El Gallo Gira, a sprawling Mexican cafeteria and bakery on Pacific Boulevard, the mayor said that "human nature" alone will motivate Huntington Park's immigrants to gradually loosen their ties to Mexico. They will follow the path of the German, Italian and eastern European immigrants who had crossed the Atlantic early this century, she added.

"People will learn to become good Americans, and they will move on," Ms. Marin said above a booming mariachi singer. "Huntington Park is just a springboard."

End illegal immigration, sure, but there's no need to hate on people coming to America to work, raise a family, and live the American dream!

Gee, you seemed to have over-looked what THESE Americans & MEX. Americans had to say about Huntington Park, CA
while Ms. Marin was the mayor.......

from the same article.......


"I don't see anything positive," said Louise Zeltner, 79, who settled in
Huntington Park with her husband 34 years ago. They are the last white
couple on their block. A frail woman, Ms. Zeltner said she rarely ventures
outside because she is terrified of gangs.

"I have no friends anymore," she added, as she sagged into her living room
recliner. "I have no one to talk to. Everybody's Spanish."

Ms. Zeltner's next-door neighbors, Angel and Dolores Medina, are
Mexican-American old-timers who harbor resentments of their own. They say
Huntington Park was a nicer town when they emigrated here from Guadalajara,
Mexico, in the 1950s. They blame the decline on the current wave of
undocumented immigrants.

"I don't go out at night anymore," said Mr. Medina, 74, a retired
meatpacker. "It's too dangerous. My wife and I got mugged."

American dream? What exactly has she ever done positive for this country? It seems she's spending most of her time back home in Mexico trying to figure out ways to get more American money headed into Mexico. What she ought to do if she cares so much about her people is move back to Mexico, run for office there and do something about the terrible corruption there. She's not for Americans in the least ---it's fine for her to be for her people but she needs to do it the right way.
