What's the difference between Spanish spoken in Spain & in Mexico?

I want to learn Spanish mainly to talk to Mexican people.I was thinking of using Rosetta Stone (which brings me to another question - is Rosetta Stone reliable?) but they only offer Spanish (Spain) & Spanish (Latin America) (question #3 which is closer to Mexican Spanish Latin America, or Spain's spanish?).But the point is, would either of those be efficient for talking to Mexicans?

How come many white Americans feal the need to learn Spanish due to the number of mexican immigants invading?

I mean we don't have to but it seems more and more importent for us to learn Spanish since they are coming from the south and pushing North. I'm kind of learning the language right now so. But I'm wondering why should we teach ourselves spanish. Why son't they just learn english if they want to come here so bad. If I was going to Latin America for what ever reason I'd just learn spanish for my own and their benifit. Immigration needs to be controlled before America is destroyed.
I agree Crystal, it's too bad political corectness keeps people from even voiceing their opinion
the reason why the number of spanish speaking people has grown is becuase over the last 2 decades they jumped the borders and all had 40 kids.
we should all listen to shelton he's a smart guy
I blame employers also for using jobs as bate for them to run over here. Everyone wants a worker for half price. These people need to either learn english or leave.

Can you help me find a Spanish language weekly newspaper or magazine to be delivered to a US address?

I don't read much Spanish. I'm trying to buy a gift subscription for my nephew with topical content and relevant vocabulary. I couldn't navigate the El Diario NY website well enough to find out if I could buy a weekly subscription; Newsweek has a Latin America version, but it's not available for delivery to US addresses. If I can manage to buy online with a credit card, that would be a plus - but any help at this point is appreciated.

Does anyone have any experience with a good program (I heard Rocket might be good, looking for confirmation or a better program), thanks!
