Memo From Mexico, By Allan Wall
"Mexican Power"--What American Politicians Don't Want To Know.
Sometimes you run across journalistic endeavor that really stands out for its honesty and clarity.
I recently saw such a thing in the Mexico media. It was a graphic feature (using Flash animation) that appeared on El Universal Online . It is entitled "Mexican Power".[By Jose' Perez-Espino and Francisco Barrados, April 10, 2006] Yes, that's right, "Mexican Power"-the title was in English.
The feature, which you can see here embedded in an HTML page, or here, linked directly to the Flash animation, includes a series of 6 pages with charts that illustrate "Mexican Power" in the U.S.A.
I suggest you look through it. I provide below an English translation for those of you who don't know Spanish...yet.

"Mexican Power"
"The Mexicans in the United States are no longer invisible. Their number has grown to 25 million, with or without papers. They represent a purchasing power of more than 378 billion dollars (of which 5% was sent to Mexico last year). The majority no longer work in the fields, as before, but in the principal cities. They are professionals, politicians, businessmen or influential communicators, students, laborers or those who work in the service sector. Here we present an overview of the Mexican Power in the United States."
