I love the fact that...

... President Obama has been to Mexico not once, but twice, in his first 7 months in office. I think it says a lot about how important he views the interconnectedness between our two countries - a position I wholeheartedly agree with him on. Both countries stand to benefit tremendously from a stronger relationship: the reasons range widely, from economic (trade- both agricultural and manufactured goods) to crime (having Mexico adopt our aims at stemming illegal drug trade trafficing down in their borders), to general goodwill (Mexico is the 11th most populous country in the world). Here's to increased bilateral cooperation in the future!
