An article entitled "Border States Feel Strain…In Mexico!"
Mexico has six states that border the U.S. From east to west, they are: Tamaulipas , Nuevo Leon , Coahuila , Chihuahua, Sonora , and Baja California.
These six states are among Mexico’s more prosperous states. They are not major sources of emigrants to the U.S.
There are also – ahem – racial differences between northern Mexicans and their fellow citizens from farther south. Generally speaking, northerners are whiter. (When the Spaniards arrived, what is now northern Mexico was sparsely populated).
Recent work done by the Mexican Genome Project has estimated that the population of the state of Sonora is 55% European. Long-time VDARE.COM readers may recall an article I wrote several years ago, on how Mexican immigration officials (in Sonora) tried to expel some Mexican Indians (from the eastern state of Chiapas), believing them to be Central Americans.
When a northern Mexican travels in southern Mexico as a tourist, he may be called a "Spaniard" or even a "Gringo" – that’s a rich irony!
