What will your policy be towards Mexico Proper if elected?
VILLA REPLIES:
If I may speak first, for a change (in English. Then through interpreter...) Let me make clear that "National Liberation" is a movement for both Mexicos. As much as I despise los gringos grises, I will concede that at least here, we have an opportunity to effect change through an election - as tainted and corrupt as the process might be. But our fellow members of la Raza down south have no such opportunity, as they have been living under the boot heel of military dictators for going on 150 yeas now. Therefore, winning this election is only half the duty of National Liberation. The other half will only be accomplished when the task that Madero, Villa and Zapata began more than a century ago is finally realized - both Mexicos, united, under a government that is both democratic and native.
Huckabee and Perry looked at one another before responding.
Through gestures, Huckabee yeilded the floor.
PERRY REPLIES:
I think he just made himself clear right there. Sr. Villa has never been a man of peace. Just like he tried to overthrow this government with terrorism back in the 80s and 90s, now he wants to declare perpetual war against our southern neighbor! Our southern neighbor who, despite our historical bad blood, is our best ally in the Drug War today! Grassy-ass, Sr. Villa, for letting us see your true colors.
And to answer your question, what will the Perry administration's policy towards Mexico (proper) be? Well, first and foremost, it will be to continue the cooperation in our mutual efforts to destroy the drug trade. Everything else comes secondary.
HUCKABEE REPLIES:
I agree with Governor Perry, every word. But I want to add that, yes, cooperation in the war is first and foremost, but as a larger goal, we need to work towards cooperation in many other areas of the economy as well.
