I can Flip the Channel to watch Escandalo T.v or Tmz! I can Celebrate 4th of July and Cinco de mayo or Mexican Independence day! I can admire Legandary Mexican people like Vicente Fernandez,Maria Felix,Pedro Infante,Dolores Del Rio and also Americans Like Marilyn Manroe,Marlin Brando,Michael Jackson,Elvis Presley,etc!

  • @gogmz5 Esta bien el problema con nosotros los mexicanos es que ustedes los mexico americanos no se preocupan por aprender a hablar español correctamente. yo vivi en estados unidos 15 años y nunca trate de mezclar los 2 idiomas es una aberracion.

  • @elsalvador267 UNIFICACION EL SALVADOR  Y MEXICO!

  • I love Mexicans. I hate mexicans who think they are better than others because they can speak english *aka, most mexican americans*

    Dont lose yourselves! Mexicans are great people, but when you try to act like whites, it kills your whole image. Its an UGLY thing! I dont want to be mean, but you people are very nice and kind hearted people. I think Mexicans are the nicest and kindest people. But dont try to be white. Its ugly.

  • @Elementertainment Mexicans are white too if you haven't noticed.

  • @Elementertainment Don't act like you know what separates acting white from acting Mexican. Can't stand people like you.

  • MEXICO RULES!

  • @03Terrestre

  • Mexican people in mexico. Hate mexican americans cuz they were born in the usa and I hate chicanos (mexican americans )too because they are so estupids. Puro mexico 100%. Chicano is not the same they don't know nothing about mexico

  • @telorinodelhoyoo Fuck you..........We real MEXICANOS....do not hate Mexican Americans because they were born in the USA. We MEXICANOS hate the Mexican Americans because this assholes don't know which culture or nationality to embrace. 1 day they are Americans. And 1 day they ''pretend'' to be Mexicans..........this mother fuckers have no sense of PATRIOTISM or NATIONALISM ,they are ''trap'' in between! No honor no nothing. So in essence they are snakes.Dual nationality DUAL FUCKING ASSHOLES.

  • Man, I love that movie.

  • son caca

  • Being that I'm 7th generation American of Mexican Decent I got over trying to explain and justify what GOD has made me the person I am.Mexican-American & Proud!! Some Mexicanos make the mistake of thinking that.Because some families have been here for so long that we forgot were we come from and that were not proud of our Heritage.I'm proud of my Mexican Heritage as much as My American Heritage.What so wrong with that!

  • And this is why I like Edward James Olmos, he tells the truth in this.

  • @mexicankunggpao no pasa nada...^^

  • @mexicankunggpao sorry man but in case u didn't know it's tens of millions.. exactly 18 million ....etcish^^

  • @frank55656 i know man i hate that too they stutter spanish like they can't speak it that's freakin crap they should be proud of being bilingual

  • iz thiz from zelena

  • haha that is true

  • Great!!!, Edward James Almos is an awsome actor.

  • jlo did a good job bein mexican it must have been hard to get the mexican accent down

  • @eaguir3 actually the puerto rican accent because most mexicans that live in the u.s. don't have an accent you probably mean the pronunciation

  • Being Mexican-American is really hard man!

  • @MissChicana702 I should know because I am one.

  • It's tough cuz a lot of people think we aren't proud to be American but we are. My family is of Mexican descent and yes I like Mexico but The USA is my home! I am proud to say I am Mexican American!

  • @MsEllaM right on cacheton right on

  • @MsEllaM viva la raza de oro mexican american

  • @MsEllaM EVERY DAY MAYNE!!

  • I just finished reading through all the comments and what bothers me the most is that people in the U.S. have coined the term “American” to refer to only people of the United States… Anyone on the continent of the Americas is considered American regardless of their nationality or culture.

  • @lsttls13

    It's a non-issue to me. If we're getting all technical then yes, everyone who lives in the continent is American. But the United States use the term "American" because we are the United States of AMERICA! There is no other way to describe a person from the U.S. We could all ourselves USians. In spanish people call 'Americans' Estadounidenses, but what is the English translation to it. There isn't.

    No big deal.

  • @emorales415 : Perhaps 'United Statesans.' Though it has never been employed or put into practical use. Ha! Ha! Also, what Edward Olmos says is so true. Selena didn't have the best Spanish, but with all of the years of fame and fortune that J-Lo has had in her homeland of the United States, it's surprising to see how her Spanish has not improved one bit, and her English is mediocre at best. Ha! Ha!

  • everyone from north america to the tip of south america from argentina is an american...... what part of america you from ...mexico bitch !!! king taco!!lol.... not just the usa....u got central americans , an south americans.....

  • u punk ass white nigga wid ur gay white ass kids u aint mexican for shit speakin spanish doesnt mean u is

  • Who is an American? Anyone who was born in the United States doesn't matter what race you are. Anglos treat you guy they way they do cause you let them. WTF, "Mexican Americans"? You are a fucking American learn from the Anglos, they don't refer to them selfs as "European Americans", but "Americans".

  • @daTERRORIZER You are right omg I never thought about that. I always labeled myself as Mexican even though I wasn't born in Mexico... You are an eye opener.

  • Mexicans are indeed particular about the Spanish pronunciations. That always makes me sick. Maybe Americans need to be equally harsh on their english pronunciations. That will give them a taste of their medicine.

  • @ttiiyy

    your a piece of work buddy. FUCK OFF. go back to engalnd your prick.

  • Comment removed

  • menudo is disgusting. tortillas are pointless. and beans well, the kind mexicans eat are fukin gross!! it's true, Mexico does kind of dislike Mexican Americans who go there.. oh. and that dad is hilarious. xD

  • u ashole white trash

  • Tha's bullshit, the things is that mex-americans in the u.s are seen as mexicans,it dont matter if the've been there for centuries,and the go to mexico to visit relatives or either on vacation they behave too gringo and most try to act too foreigner, and guess thats what mexicans dislike abouy mex-americans, that because we're the same they wanna meke seem like they're different.in the us they act too mexicans and in mexico too gringos

  • @frank55656 ¿Estas escuchando el mensaje del video? Que dificil es para los Mexico/Americanos ser acceptados por personas ignorantes como tu. Hay personas cual sus familias (Como la de Selena) que su familia habia estado en Tejas desde cuando Tejas era parte de Mexico. Pero su familia se quedo cuando Tejas se convertio parte de los Estados Unidos.

  • It is tough being Mexican American. My family is from California. I can't decide whether I am Mexican, Californian or Spanish. It's very difficult to decide. i feel like being Mexican is like being Against The United States which i love. I feel like being American is the same as hating Spanish.

    For the record I am proud of being Spanish, but in English!

  • This is so true.......... :o

  • @juicypink18 lolx i can't the government can't deport me. And who said i was ashamed off all mexicans living here? im not ashamed cause we are the only people who work hard here. and the "American Dream" doesn't existent in my world because they are all trying to get rid of all the illegal immigrants so there is no hope nor Dream

  • When My parents came from Cuba in 1960 their sponsor was a 4th generation Mexican American and people in Iowa still called him Mexican.

  • I'm "mexican-american" and i speak inglish and spanglish

  • By the way, why are they using Puerto Ricans to play the roles of Mexican-Americans?

  • I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.

    - Bill Cosby

  • p.s. eddie olmos is a great actor.

  • aint j lo puerto rican?

  • @mkrulz77 yes jlo is puerto rican but she was portraying selena and selena was mexican well anyway mexican american

  • I thought Mexicans were Americans already? They are from Middle America and a part of the Americas.

  • @wijse They mean the u.s when saying American or America.

  • @wijse In fact Mexico is in North America, remember NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement), just google north america and you will see where Mexico is.

  • im 100% mexican but im so light complected so my cousins and friends make fun of me

  • same here...lol haha also cuz i lost my spanish but i still try to speak it but i get nervous when i speak it cuz i feel that they will make fun of me....but i do read n understand Spanish very well :) and i still practice!!!@123JustYouAndMe

  • fuck u white trash

  • ??? y the hell did u send me that?@franknigai

  • @vonnyyay cus u white bitch

  • hahah no i am no idiot i am a proud mexican@franknigai

  • I my self am Mexican-American but I hold my Mexican roots more close to my hard. I really hate the Mexican-Americans that look like they just have crossed the border and dont speak spanish and also speak bad about Mexicans!

  • @izzyv245 i know what you mean i am mexican american too... and i hate it when people that are mexican americans stutter when they speak spanish or they act like they can't speak spanish but they can .... i love being bilingual and of course Mexican

  • lol, i love this scene and its so true. ive been dissed by more mexican natives than american anglos. Telling me I am not mexican cuz i wasn't born there and cuz i don't speak it right but whatever. I love who I am :-)

  • @Gw0w23 Some people are born in other countries not their home countries.

  • @FunnyJamieMaloney I am not comprehending you. What are you trying to say- be more specific b/c that doesn't make sense. How does that relate to my comment?

  • @mexicankunggpao You are absolutely wrong, there is no continent called America, its North America. You are right in the assertion that most Americans lack world knowledge but you cant compare the U.S. and Mexico in terms of which has more to offer immigrants. Do you honestly think that people would rather immigrate to Mexico than the United States?

  • @mexicankunggpao North America is a continent. Its made up of Mexico, the United States, and Canada. I'm aware that apple pie and chicken noodle soup originated in other parts of the world but they were brought to America and are internationally known as distinctly american symbols. I'm sorry but when people hear apple pie, they dont think of England, you cant dispute that. I was just naming those things to emphasize that people from all over the world aren't lining up to get into Mexico

  • @mattEo578 They're lining up to get into America

  • @mexicankunggpao All of that was CREATED in america

  • maybe when the aliens invade us ... we will not discuss this O_O

  • Is a mexican not already an american? an american is a person from the americas.

  • I am mexican american and speak anglish i try to speak the spanish words that i know but when i dont know a word i use an english word you know spanglish lol.

  • Non of you pathetic mexicunts have anything good to say about America ... why are you flockng here? And no, its not your country and yes you plague our financial system.

  • @loveusorleaveus I hope your not talking about americans of mexican origin.

  • @Thebeerman301

    Hell no I'm not. I don't care what origin anyone is from. I do care if you (not you personally) are here ILLEGALLY. As an American citizen thats my right to say this and honor to keep anyone illegal out.

  • first of all its mexiCAN second of all im mexican american and its people like u that ruin this country with racism third of all manoodles are good

  • Yo nací en los angeles and im a mexican not gringo soy 5ta jeneracion chicano, y nome kreo anglo soy mexica, AMERICA noes un país es en el continente donde vivimos Pendejos

  • Selinas, por favor hija. Put ur seatbelts on.

  • pinches pochos traidores a la patria tiene razon el papa no los quieren ni aqui ni alla.

  • Ches chicanos aveces se creen tan gringos que apoyan ala seleccion usa, pero cuando se trata de honrar a heroes tienen q recurrir a nuestros heroes mexicanos saquense a la verga

  • apayamos la seleccion porque somos Mexican-American no quiere decir que nos creemos gringos. Acuerdate ya hay 3 Mexican-American en la seleccion de USA y Carlos Bocanegra es el capitan de la selecion

    ohhh y ustedes como honran a los Mexican-American como Mark Sanchez, Tony Romo, y Oscar de la Hoya que cuando discutan con otros sudamericanos les dicen que ustedes tiene mexicanos el futbol americano LOL

    "ches" ya te crees argentino?

  • @CriolloMexicano09 yo soy Mexico -Americana y a decir la verdad prefiero mucho mas a la seleccion Mexicana que la De estados unidos es mas me se mucho mas los nombres de los jugadores Mexicanos que los de usa el unico que se de USA es london donovan y ya pero de mexico esta rafa marquez, el chicharito, torado, efrain, andres guardado, salcido, giovanni , memo ochoa en fin Viva Mexico y la seleccion Mexicana!!!

  • fuckin wetbacks

  • This is sooo true... BTW I bet the Chicanos that left comments about being "Puro Mexicano" are from Southern California because that's how most of them think down there. LOL

  • I gave up trying to please people from Mexico a long time ago. I speak Spanish and English fluently, but if I don't have to speak Spanish I wont because English is what I grew up with and the lifestyle of Chicago is all I know. I will consider myself a Chicagoan or American over Mexican American in a minute. I love my city and my people (the Chicagoans) because I relate to them 100%

  • same, except in TX. I kinda hate visiting family in mexico, it's fun for new years but sucks otherwise.

  • i see the mexican side with that van their driving around with. lol! we had one just like that one when i was a teen in da 80's.

    we have to know about johhny cash and freddy fender. lol!

  • tell me if im wrong im from europe a country called england

  • They're Mexican American, but peole just shorten it to just Mexican.

    Like how I'm an English american, but I just say that I'm English and people know what I mean.

  • there not native too mexico so ur not mexican ur hispanic of spanish decent from europe

  • Were closer to Native Americans (Mexico/American) than Spaniards.

    Spaniard+Indian=Mexican

  • mexican aint them lot of spanish decent so how can u be called mexican american although i must admit the spanish are much whiter than these mexicans the spanish are europeans same as the the germans the english and irish etc

  • Fried chicken, apple pie, baseball, chicken noodle soup, football, peanutbutter and jelly sandwiches, 99 cent stores, people from all over the world, yep id rather be american than mexican any day

  • Pure Mexican Blood! But %100 AMERICAN!! I don't even speak spanish!! Look Mexican than a mutha though!! I'm proud of what I am!!

    The ones that hate on us are the equivelant to "White trailer trash".

    The educated ones understand ou history in America.

  • well the only thing I could tell is that we're more Americans than the Anglo's well ever be because we have indigenous blood! they're full blooded European their ancestors had to come in boats and what bother's me is that they feel more American than us ! by the way my nationality is Mexican

  • Mexican Americans-Arab Americans understand you

  • tex-mex all the way!

  • im mexican 100 % from Chihuahua, and i dont have nothing against mexican americans, i only hate the ones dat wanna b white, fuck dat bitches
