Beschreibung | Vicente Fox Quesada GCMG CYC (amerikanisches Spanisch: [biˈsente ˈfoks keˈsaða]; geboren am 2. Juli 1942) ist ein mexikanischer Geschäftsmann und Politiker, der vom 1. Dezember 2000 bis zum 30. November 2006 das Amt des 62. mexikanischen Präsidenten innehatte.

Er war der erste Präsident seit 1929, der nicht der Partei der Institutionellen Revolution (PRI) angehörte, und der erste, der von einer Oppositionspartei gewählt wurde, seit Francisco I. Madero 1911. Fox gewann die Wahl mit 42 Prozent der Stimmen. |
On one side, citizens have great respect for the United States they have a great feeling of friendship. That is solid. But in the opposition and in the political arena I often find criticism of the closeness of relations with the United States. That is a reality.
And I like to convey my feelings, my emotions, my experience, the information I have to public use, public opinion.
I part of this great nation because my grandfather was born here, in Cincinnati, Ohio. He took a horse, back in 1895, and ride it all the way down to Guanajuato, looking for his American dream. No penny in his pocket, only dreams in his head. And he was an immigrant coming from the States into Mexico. And he found his American dream in Mexico.
We need to be aware of what we are capable of first and realize that if you place your dreams really really high, you do have the potential to get to that level.
Obama is thoroughly mixed up with all these things he's got. He's got to solve Libya. He's got to solve Afghanistan. He's everywhere. And this nation, I don't know why it's not showing the leadership and capacity to attend different issues at the same time.
We are a nation in which freedom is alive in the squares and streets, in the daily work of the communications media, in the open relationship between the governing and the governed.
You may count on Mexico's support, since your commitment to the noblest causes of mankind and your vast experience are and will be invaluable in enabling us, together, to achieve a better world.
What nourishes us at home and in school is what inspires us. When we get awareness and learn about the great potential that we all human beings have, we are able to discover our leadership.
I mean, we must act with intelligence. We must work on this framework, so that immigration becomes an asset to both nations. Believe me, what - just the Mayor Bloomberg said here in New York, that this city would be stopped, totally stopped if it were not by the immigrants working here.
