Mexican President Felipe Calderon will address a joint session of Congress today, as he continues his visit to the United States. Yesterday he joined President Obama at the White House and spoke out against Arizona’s recent immigration law.
For a closer look at this visit by Calderon we speak with Eric Olson, an analyst on U.S.-Mexico relations at the Woodrow Wilson Center. We’re also joined by Franc Contreras, a freelance reporter in Mexico City, for a look at how the Mexican people perceive the United States and its policies.
