I frankly don't see the sovereignty issue as playing a role as an impediment as much as the sheer ability of the cartels to corrupt.

There's nothing wrong with enlightened self-interest.

I'll tell you, one of the things I feel very good about is that there are people like Bob Menendez, who care about these issues.

The truth is that the catastrophe was years in the making caused by regulatory negligence and Wall Street gambling.
