My family is from Mexico, we didn't come to America, America came to us. One of our ancestors was acting Governor of Texas before it was a part of the united states and still belonge to Mexico, he helped the rebelion, and his wife successfully pleaded with Santa Anna for the lives of the women and children at the Alamo, but because he was Mexican his property was taken from him when Texas was Annexed to the U.S. Many Mexican families played crucial roles in the creation of this country, and have been here for longer then the white people who insist they don't belong. Many of them work for less then minimum wage on lands that were illegal taken from their families. On a whole Mexico, and Mexican workers have given a lot more to this country then they recieve, which on a whole is far less then any of us are willing to work for. I hope you get your wish and get to see the state of this nation without their efforts.
