Mexicans plan to push amnesty and whine about the fence after Hussein Obama inauguration

Mexican Secretary of Exterior Relations, Patricia Espinosa Cantellano, said that when Barak Obama becomes president, Mexico will reassert its contention that his agenda include an immigration agreement as a priority.  In addition, other aspects of dialogue to be addressed are the fight against organized crime and the economic competitiveness with other regions.  In a press conference, she assured that President Felipe Calderon is confident that with Obama’s presidency a migration agreement will finally be reached that permits both nations a flow of migration that is legal, safe and orderly.  Espinosa also said that the Mexican government hopes the US president-elect changes his position on the construction of the border fence.  She pointed out that Calderon’s government will continue to raise the issue, respectfully but firmly, that the border fence does not correspond to the friendly relations and and the partnership that exists between Mexico and the US.  Pointing out the contributions Mexicans make to the US economy and society that benefits both sides, she stated, “we hope that with the new administration we can continue working in the sense of the importance of the border becoming a common area of opportunities and that we concentrate on efforts that take us to better levels of well being.”  She added that, without a doubt, the big challenge is to succeed in delivering the message to the US people in order to obtain the consensus necessary to promote migratory reform
