Americans see a shared responsibility for the two countries to address their international problems, including illegal immigration and drug trafficking.
An even larger share, or about three-quarters of Americans, say the governments should both be responsible for preventing illegal drug trafficking from Mexico to the U.S.
“We need to boost our economy with people,” said Bennefield, adding he also feels it is equally important to prevent illegal immigration across the U.S.-Mexico border.
That emphasis on stopping illegal immigration is also reflected in how Americans view Mexican immigrants differently depending on whether they live in the U.S. legally or not.
They were also more likely to have a favorable view of Mexican immigrants living in the U.S. illegally.
