A Mexican cowboy is called vaquero or charro and they are the original cowboys. The American settlers learned how to herd cattle from Mexican immigrants

Why not? Both Texas and Florida individually have larger economies and better living standards than Mexico. If Mexico absorbed Texas and Florida, it would become 3rd largest economy in the world, compared to their 12th place now. If only Texas was annexed, then Mexico would be 6th largest and if only Florida, then it would be 8th.

Please take them. Texas is the superior form of the willfully ignorant governing at the detriment of the poor.

Funny when they say it as "Mexican immigrants" when at the time the land was taken away from Mexico and all of the sudden the people that lived there became immigrants
