Many Mexican immigrants, legal or otherwise, see themselves as part of a process of retaking the United States that once was a part of Mexico. Recent Mexican law permits dual citizenship which tacitly supports this notion.

This objective is aptly described by Jose Ramos, anchorman since 1986 on Noticieros, a Miami news program on Univision cable network, also seen in Mexico and 13 other Latin-American countries.

This guy is the real deal, having the stature of Walter Cronkite, although not a U.S. citizen and one of the 10 most admired Latinos in the U.S. — a graduate of the University of Miami — my alma mater. Ramos accurately observes, "Latinos have achieved the feat of integration economically to the U.S. without losing their culture."
