Because Mexico is not a small, unpopulated, backward country. It is regarded as an Emerging Market, with an ongoing industrialization process. Many items consumed in the United States are manufactured in Mexico, such as plasma TVs, refrigerators or motor vehicles. Also a large part of US oil imports come from Mexico.
