BORDER CROSSINGS: IMMIGRATION, FREE TRADE, AND SECURITY

March 19, 2008
Vicente Fox
President, United Mexican States, 2000-2006

The election of Vicente Fox to the Mexican presidency ended 70 years of one-party rule. A charismatic reformer, President Fox played a critical role in Mexico’s democratization and economic revival. A successful businessman before entering politics, President Fox sees immigration as a development issue and the mercurial U.S.-Mexican relationship as central to the stability of the Western Hemisphere.
