Obama failed the test on immigration during trip to Mexico
An immigration reform activist says President Barack Obama should have pushed for more Mexican cooperation with illegal drug- and people-trafficking during his recent visit to Mexico City.
Obama became the first U.S. president to come to the Mexican capital since Bill Clinton. The president said the U.S. and Mexico are good neighbors because the two countries have people who “share values and ideals.”
At a news conference with Mexican President Felipe Calderon,Obama pledged to work with the Mexican government against drug cartels. But he said that the U.S. shares some responsibility for recent bloodshed and kidnappings in Mexico because of U.S. drug demand and the flow of weapons into Mexico.
