It an idea only liberals could seriously consider. Portions of America would be transferred to Mexican sovereignty. That would be one way to get rid of illegal aliens, but can people be serious about this?
This stems from the Mexican-American War, not one of the brighter spots on our history. At least not according to early presidents such as John Quincy Adams and U.S. Grant in addition to other notable American leaders including General Robert E. Lee. It’s been referred to as America’s first war of territorial conquest, one that resulted in a sizeable part of what was Mexican territory being annexed by the U.S. Government.
The results of this war still manifest themselves today in movements in the American Southwest among those of Mexican descent to secede from the U.S. and return to Mexico. Now we see these movements and others considering filing claims in international courts demanding that their request be granted to return what they consider as stolen territory back to Mexico.

No they do not not you idiot. Read American History. How can you people really be so stupid?
Remember the Alamo? Remember Goliad? Remember those battle cries used when Texas WON its independence from that corrupt & evil Mexican government? Just try taking it back – we’ll blow your asses back to the 1700’s. F’n idiots. NY Times is a joke – no longer a respected news organization, simply a one-world Socialist mouthpiece whose presses should be melted down and turned into weapons of war so we can protect ourselves from the radical elements it has encouraged and enabled. That’s a shame – much better if they ‘were’ plowshares, but the NYT and their ilk have eliminated that possibility because of their treason.
Let ’em leave and cut ’em off from the Colorado River.
That’s because all the Mexican gold was stolen from the Aztecs and shipped to Spain except for what was taken by British privateers it is at the bottom of the ocean
Isn’t it interesting that the NYT is so interested in returning land which was lost by war ( and purchased by treaty ) from the U.S. back to Mexico? Where is the interest in returning the land which was stolen from Israel? There was a Temple at the site before there was a Muslim edifice built over it – which they simply do to lay claim. Israel owned it, lost it, won it back – end of story – except for the liberal Muslim apologists who make a career out of justifying radical Muslim atrocities. Sorry, but you NYT guys are on an evolutionary equivalency with pond scum.
A Mexican living in El Paso and working in Juarez told me the we stole America from them, and now they are taking it back. I said, “So you can make America look like Juarez again?” He was pissed.
Texas is ready when you are.

No
Read your history about California. Mexico didn’t want the land, they thought it was useless and gave it to the US.
