If the Mexican philosophy is that America stole the southwest , and we should give it back would it then would it be fair to say that Mexico must be given back to Spain ?

slippiefi... - Did you know they have discovered that it was Eropeans that made claim to America first ? It is true, and there is proof to back this up. So no way you cut it, none of your arguments hold up.

jkdart200... - You are the retarted one, it has been over 100 million years sence Spain and Mexico were on the same land mass. The country Spain was not around then. I had to say that because I don't think you knew it.

You are lost! Spain is in Europe, Mexico is in the new world , Americas! The Southwest was part of Mexico, in other words look at the maps and see the inmense ocean from Spain to Mexico, and is not possible in this era and worlsd affairs!Fact is ;Mexico is an original in American territory , the U.S.A is original also ,except the whites of Europe who came here , so to be honest Mexico has more claim than the U.S.A. to the new world as we know it.

Anyone who believes that America stole the southwest is ignorant. The United States bought much of the Southwest in the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo and the Gadsden purchase.The only state we took was Texas , most of its inhabitants wanted to become apart of the U.S. The U.S. " annexed " Texas. They should be more peeved with Spain , Spain killed their people. The United States has been TOO kind.

Mexico just has double standards they demand other countries accomadate a large mass of people. Spain could open the country up and they can have a whole lot if they become honest

Clone, that is absolutely, beyond any doubt, the most idiotic question I've read this week. If you'd made it through 6th grade history you'd know that Mexico was populated by indigenous tribes ages before Cortes and his cronies showed up. Need I say more?

It's not a valid comparation. The U.S took the states, while Mexico became indpendent from Spain, which is different.
Anyway, in present time that cannot happen.

I think we should saw them off and kick them towards Africa. Let them be diseased together.
But seriously. Yes, I think we should invite Spain over there to get them back.
