500 Pound Enchilada

McCain has just returned from Mexico, and, of course, he has a solution for the "Mexico Problem." So does Obama-- as did Carter, Reagan, Clinton, the Bushes.
Ah yes, the Mexico Problem. Talk about the 500 pound enchilada sitting right in the middle of the table that no one wants to see!
Mexico, like Canada, has abundant resources and a border with the world's wealthiest nation. It also has a year-round growing season and warm, sandy beaches. So how come Canada prospers and Mexico remains largely a third-world crap pit?
Let me take a wild, crazy guess. Do you think that maybe, just maybe, it's because Canada has a real government and Mexico is run by a gang of thugs?

It would be refreshing if McCain or Obama would at least acknowledge the obvious problem, instead of continuing to blindly support the ruthless, greedy criminals that rob Mexico of its potential.
