DALLAS (AP) -- Mexican President Felipe Calderon made an investment pitch Tuesday to business officials, saying his country has "solid economic fundamentals" and is dealing with transportation needs and crime.
And while Calderon has criticized U.S. immigration policy, he said U.S. investment in his country could ease the pressure for Mexicans to move -- legally or otherwise -- to the United States.

Importance: If Calderon can make his words come true no only will Mexico's economy grow but, the U.S. government will have a maller immiration problem.
