Yes, I have a college degree. Yes, I know Mexico used to own part of the US. My home state, Texas, for one. Whats your point? They don't own it any more and never will. Get legal, learn English or get out.

I did. I also finished college, how about you? Before it was Mexico's it belonged to Native Americans, and they weren't Aztecs. Wanna reclaim the southwest? Go through the Hopi, the Navajo, the Pueblo, the Tigua, the list is endless. I don't think they want to share their lands with a bunch of Mexicans who have a screwed up sense of history. And are you also familiar with the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo and the 15 million dollars paid for the southwest? If you had actually finished school, you might know that, as well as the rules of punctuation. "Betcha" is also not a word people who are educated use. I think you are the one that needs to "shut up."

Yes i did , I went to collage ...
and guess what , I'm also a American citizen... are you ? It don't sound like it .
As for the southern states, yeah, you use to own them. Then we came along and bought them. We paid your country money for them. yeah there was a war..a war we won, we could of just took control of Mexico all togeather, but no... We only took the area that was under dispute, and then we paid you for it. Just think, if we would of annexxed your country then we would not be having this discussion, and you all would be legal American citizens.
Oh wait, that would P I S S you off, cause then you would need to pay taxxes.

Yes, high school, college, and almost done with a master's degree. Most of this country belonged to Mexico, Spain, and France at various times.

Some of it was Dutch(New Amsterdam, Harlem)Some French( Louisanna) some Spanish(Florida,New Orleans,California,Nevada, Colorado, and much of Arizona, New Mexico and south and coastal Texas[remember the Alamo]) not much Portuguese that was only very early fish villages in Newfoundland, Canada
And of course there were some other people( Natives) here earlier but most of them got sick and died of smallpox

I have a M.S., but that isn't where I learned that some of this country used to be Mexico's. What is your point? Let me guess, your 'logic' goes something like this:
Some of this country used to belong to Mexico, therefore we should have an open border policy.
Well, my angry friend, here is a little more education for you: look up non sequitur.

Masters degree. The Mexicans are reclaiming what was stolen from them. Thomas Jefferson pulled a real deal with the La. purchase.
