Sard: I spend a lot of time in Mexico. I have a good friend there who is a professor at a University. One evening over too many tequilas he said to me, “You know America stole Texas from us." I said, "yes.' Then he said, "You know you stole Arizona and New Mexico too." I again a said, "yes. The n he said, "You also stole California." Again I agreed, wondering where the conversation was headed. Then he smiled and said," Many of us wish you had stolen the rest of the country."
