would we be able to change their corrupted government and within years run it like a democracy like the united states?
If so, why cant the Mexicans do the same in their own country? Therefore the incentives to cross the border wouldnt be as great. They seem to have no trouble protesting their rights here. What is the problem with this?

sierv- as a government employee, I regularly travel outside the country and can probably tell you more about what you think you know about foreign/Latin politics. secondly, who said anything about discrimination? did i highlight any instances of bigotry or racism? did you read the question or would you prefer translation in Espanol?

We Americans probably can because we got balls! When we wanted our independance, we took it! When we wanted Texas (sorry Mexico), we took it! When we wanted civil rights and equality in America, we took it!
We Americans dont wait for handouts from other countries (as Mexicans do), we take what we want!
Send some Americans down to Mexico to take care of things and we'll change their corrupted-asses less than a decade!

Yes, if all the people who are here illegally started protesting in their own country things would change.
Other than basic human rights the only rights an illegal has in this country is a free ride out.

Unlikely, since it is your governments and your culture of consumption which have made possible our culture of corruption.
The First World needs cheap resources, and the way to keep those cheap resources flowing is to deal with corrupt elites and keeping the masses ignorant in poor countries.
You will never come to "fix" our corruption, you only invade when the people tries to take control of their destiny (because that would mean higher prices for the resources you acquire cheaply from the corrupt ones at the top, the ones you protect).

All goverments have corrupted ppl in office, not just mexicans. By the bull you are saying I am pretty sure you know squat about the rest of the world.
You want to immigrate in to mexico, go ahead. I can just see you trying to jump the fence to get to the other side.

Obviously you have never been outside of your country, and therefore don't know anything about how other countries run and what their problems are. By suggesting ALL Mexicans/Latinos aren't doing ANYTHING about their situation, you are putting yourself in the place of a bigot, who stereotypes a group of people without even knowing them that well. Please do some research about Latin American politics, and then come back and demand all you want.

Well, hopefully If we did, It would make Mexico better enough so half the country wouldn't be sneaking into America...

No, because Mexico actually enforce their laws. They are hypocrites. They would never allow the antics of illegal aliens in their country.

NO - besides, why would we want to?
Mexico won't change because they don't want to and they have millions of their citizens here, sponging off the tax payer and sending money home.

I wouldn't worry about Mexicans protesting here any time soon. they gave themselves areal black eye waving the Mexican flag while marching thru the streets. as to us taking over Mexico, why? we have a perfectly good nation right here!

Because the cartels run the government down there. They will shoot you in the head in the blink of an eye.
