Give Aztlan back to Mexico. Texas, Arizona, Nevada, most of California, Utah, and New Mexico, and Parts of Colorado. If they want to be here that badly, make here there.
Annex Mexico. Do it diplomatically, transferring sovreignty on a state by state basis from the north of the country to the south, say, one state every 5 to 10 years. After Mexico, keep moving south if conditions allow.................

I hope I'm not taking this out of context but I disagree with your logic on this point. Texas won it's own independence form Mexico in 1836. Santa Anna surrendered. Do you want to give the East Coast back to England. Texas was an independent nation until 1845 - Texas encompassed a large portion of the geography you're suggesting the US give away. Annexing Mexico would probably be more to Mexico's advantage than it would be to ours - they have as many, or more problems on their southern borders than we do.
