Anyone can welcome anyone around here. You don't have to be an admin to be nice. In fact, some folks claim that it is a disqualification. Enjoy editing and let me know if I can help. Cheers, -Will Beback 09:20, 20 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Grace

Here is the sources you wanted, Will Beback won't allow to grace any page relevant.

The Mexican Constitution:

Article 33: "Foreigners may not in any way participate in the political affairs of the country."

Article 32: "Mexicans shall have priority over foreigners under equality of circumstances for all classes of concessions and for all employment, positions, or commissions of the Government in which the status of citizenship is not indispensable."

Article 32: foreigners, immigrants, and even naturalized citizens of Mexico may not serve as military officers, Mexican-flagged ship and airline crew, or chiefs of seaports and airports.

Article 55: A Mexican congressman or senator must be "a Mexican citizen by birth."

Article 91 cabinet officers must be Mexican by birth.

Article 95: Supreme Court justices must be Mexican by birth.

Article 130 Immigrants may not become members of the clergy.

I've seen these from previous versions but just provide the sources in the article. M P M 09:03, 20 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

If you have seen them before then why dont you source instead of deleting them? Everytime i add the articles of the Mexican Constitution to an article, Will deletes them...Why are you 2 bent on supressing these facts? The real issue here is you and will both have an agenda and you feel i am opposed. nothing could be further from thr truth. Mi Tia lives in Los Alamos, Sonora, I love Mexico and Mexicans.

Anytime someones adds any large chunk of source material it gets removed. You don't see big excerpts from the U.S. Constitution all over either. There is already n article about the Constitution of Mexico, that'd be the place, if any, for extended quotes. -Will Beback 20:27, 20 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Immigration to Mexico

edit

I'm astonished we didn't have this article sooner. We should probably have some standard information about most nations' immigration/emigration patterns, with separate articles for those with considerable situations. BTW, I'm sure that immigration lawyers are very nice people "in person" (I know one who is), but they sometimes are annoying on Wikipedia by wanting to add self-promotional links. Watch out for their linkspam, if you have a chance. Cheers, -Will Beback 08:32, 22 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
