Obama: "Mexicans" Were Here "Long Before America Was Even An Idea"

[one...two...tree 2,762]

More insults. You don't want to see the pandering so you don't. Obama talked about French, Dutch, and Spanish. In each of these cases this refers to people of a country. He also talked about native people. Native people takes in the people that later became the Mexicans. To mention Mexicans in this context does not refer to a native people but of a nationality. Your are the one being thick because you don't want to admit you are totally wrong.

Oh my God. Talk about spinning your wheels in a dust storm.

At that time the Aztecs (who referred to themselves as the Mexica or Tenochca) were a small, nomadic, Nahuatl-speaking aggregation of tribal peoples living on the margins of civilized Mesoamerica.

Looks like Johny Troll just got schooled by Bill.

Context man, context. You are not seeing the context. Oh wait, yes you do. You just can't admit it without looking the fool.

You mean, how dare Obama acknowledge the ancestral lineage of Mexican-Americans? You are a sad, little man. I'll bet you no taller than 5'4".

6'3" to be honest. And I am a very happy man. I have a great job and a wife that respects me. Can you say the same?

We all walked out out Africa.... well, some Africans stayed in Africa.

6'3"? Sure, pal.

And you say differently how? Face it man, you are a very small minded, petty person. From what I hear you have little respect from those around you. What you show here does nothing to change that perception. I guess insulting people makes up for your own shortcommings so hammer away if it makes you feel better.

Indians.

Oh, and your references are to words in use in the 16th century, not the 14th century.

One more thing, you have name called 3 times without my retaliation. One more time and a report will be made.

Christopher Columbus mistakenly believed that the Caribbean island on which he had landed was the subcontinent of India, he called the inhabitants Indians. Eventually, that name was applied to almost all the indigenous, non-European inhabitants of North and South America.

Where the Aztecs actually located on any land currently US soil?

I know the story. Steven was trying to get me to call them "Native Americans" like it was proving his point or something. For it to be a valid point Obama would have had to refer to the Mexicans and Meso-Americans. He didn't, he called them Mexicans in the context of "people that live in Mexico".
