I sort of hope all he does is listen. Eight years of being left alone, without American involvement has been pretty good for most of South America and the only place Bush got involved in was Columbia and that has turned out well for Columbia; hasn't made a dint in the coke trade but it has given Columbia the strong central government that they needed. Chalk one up for the Bush administration. Just leave South American policy alone and concentrate on the Mexican problem.

South America is feeding the Mexican problem via drug smuggling.

The Mexican problem is caused by poor American border security and American demand for drugs. Homeland security cannot, after decades, stop tonnes of cocaine and weapons from moving across the border but they are supposed to keep one bomb out. Close the border, period; keep the drugs out and the money in.
