Annex Mexico!?

[bunklocoempire]

Just caught on the McLaughlin Group.

Question: Should the U.S. annex Mexico?

This topic posed after a violence video bit. I wasn't able to catch the discussion but I caught the question.

Anybody catch this?

They'll probably rebroadcast Sat. or Sunday.

Nothing on the site yet.

Mexico is 31 states... and 100 Million people.

They would get a third of the senate and a quarter of Congress.

A huge new stable market would open up, wages would drop, bilingualism would be around for a long while. The south border would get way smaller...

Or this one:

http://www.cfr.org/publication/7955/north_america_the_beautiful.html

Deepening the integration of our three countries promises great benefits for our citizens. But as the September 11 attacks showed, integration is neither inevitable nor irreversible. We cannot afford to stand still or to take one another for granted.

To make North America more competitive and secure, the three leaders should announce a plan to establish a North American security and economic community by 2010. The aim of this community would be to guarantee a free, safe, just and prosperous North America. The boundaries of the community would be defined by a common external tariff and an outer security perimeter,

This was in the WSJ in 2005 for cripes sake.

And some will still argue that the plans for economic and political union of super states, merged then into global NWO hegemony is the stuff of paranoid "conspiracy theories".

It's no big secret, it's hidden in plain view, all one has to do is read it and see.

It would be better to let the Mexican states secede and ratify the American Constitution one at a time.

I'ld be happy to see the American States do that.
It is a good Constitution, , just so out of use.:(

they would never be allowed to be states,
the Philippines and Puerto Rico were annexed in 1898. neither came close to statehood

Puerto Rico has come very close a few times in the past in referendums. I can't image Puerto Rico statehood gaining anymore support, unless the people think they'll get more of Obama's handouts.

Mexican annexation is a bad idea. When that border is gone, do you think they'll all stay in their poor towns?

yes, yes i do.

Just look at how hard it was to bring East Germany into West Germany. And that was with a common language and cultural basis ....

Annex it and then give it to China to pay off our debt. Two birds, one stone.

Are there still jobs left in the USA to 'steal'?

Hawaii was annexed, -overthrown, and became a state. And when the overthrown were able to vote, they swung hard left.
