If you are ready for the adventure of a lifetime, TRY THIS:
Enter Mexico illegally. Never mind immigration quotas, visas, International law or any of that nonsense.
Once there, demand that the local government provide free medical care for you and your entire family.
Demand bilingual nurses and doctors.
Demand free bilingual local government forms, bulletins, etc. Procreate abundantly.
Deflect any criticism of this allegedly irresponsible reproductive behavior with, "It is a cultural USA thing. You would not understand, pal."
Keep your American identity strong. Fly Old Glory from your rooftop, or proudly display it in your front window or on your car bumper.
Speak only English at home and in public and insist that your children do likewise.
Demand classes on American culture in the Mexican school system.
Demand a local Mexican driver license. This will afford other legal rights and will go far to legitimize your unauthorized, illegal presence in Mexico.
Drive around with no liability insurance and ignore local traffic laws.
Insist that local Mexican law enforcement teach English to all its officers.
Good luck! You'll be demanding for the rest of time or soon dead. Because it will never happen. It will not happen in Mexico or any other country in the world except right here in the United States, Land of the naive stupid idiotic politically correct politicians.
If you agree, pass this on. If you don't, go ahead and try the above in Mexico or Iran.
If I've offended you, go play in traffic.

You're right, you couldn't move anywhere and do all of those things.
But, it has nothing to do with politically correct politicians.
The reason it works in the US is because of how we are as a country. Mexico, Spain, Iran, France, etc. all have a specific national identity; they have specific food, languages, customs, etc. We, on the other hand, don't have a national identity, really, with specific cultural attributes. The US is a big ol' stew of all kinds of people. Think about it: we have southern culture, southwest culture, mountain west culture, northeastern culture, etc. Each region has its own food, climate, regional specialties. So, it doesn't seem odd for people to demand out-of-the-local-culture things; southerners moving north demand southern-style restaurants, and northerners moving south start-up Philly Cheesesteak places. Then, when Mexicans move in and demand Mexican-style restaurants, it doesn't strike Americans as odd. I, for one, am glad they bring their food and culture-I love Mexican food!!
The “keep your American identity strong. Fly Old Glory from your rooftop, or proudly display it in your front window or on your car bumper” can be done in the US, too, because it has been done in the so many times before. Think about it: Boston has its Irish pride. And, people all over the US celebrate their Scottish heritage at huge festivals like the one held annually at Stone Mountain Georgia. So, there isn’t anything wrong with a Mexican moving here and flying the Mexican flag. If the Scotts can do it, why not the Mexicans?
“Speak only English at home and in public and insist that your children do likewise.” I don’t understand why people get so upset about Latinos speaking Spanish in the US. I’m glad they do; it gives me a chance to practice my Spanish. I like being multilingual. A truly intelligent person should never limit himself to just one language. Yes, I realize that most –well, nearly all—Americans are far to unintelligent and inferior to me intellectually to learn a second language, which explians their fear of Spanish-speaking people, but that’s no reason to prevent people from speaking their own language if they want to. If everyone were as intelligent as me ( I really wish God had done a better job of making people.), the speaking of Spanish would not even be an issue. We would all just learn Spanish and add it to our repertoire of several languages because it would be so easy for everyone.
“Procreate abundantly.” It’s good that they procreate; it grows the economy. Other industrialized countries would love to have our population growth, which is largely fueled by immigration. Without the constant influx of young workers, things like social security and health plans can’t function. In the US, the immigrants are keeping it all going. Japan, on the other hand, may suffer an economic collapse as a result of too low population growth.
I just really don’t understand why people get upset over immigration legal or illegal. Afterall, the Europeans illegally immigrated here several hundred years ago, killed all the true natives, and then proceeded to rape the North American continent. The white Americans, if anything, are the true evil-doers.
