Mexicos President Vicente Fox has stated that he does not feel that the stamps express racial stereotypes and has ignored all calls to pull them from circulation. Additionally. he has stated there is absolutely nothing discriminatory about this stamp collection. In May 2005. President Fox said that. "Mexican migrants in the U.S. did jobs even blacks dont want." President Foxs comment was a slap in the face to all American citizens who believe in justice and equality worldwide. Today. as we face the new world on terror. people of all races. nationalities and backgrounds are forming powerful political and economic coalitions. The comments and actions of President Fox do nothing to strengthen the bonds in these communities.
