Its a tough ask but if president Calderón can get the drug cartels under control the crime and illegal drugs figures will more than likely plummet, that would be quite an incentive for mexicans to stay put wouldnt it?.

The US would need to be more active in the country though, ie more help to train the army and police personnel, just keep your troops out of there or it could blow up in to something a lot worse.
The sooner the better.
This problem is ages old, and the newer generations are being born into it, they know no other way of life. It will become endemic, and therefore next to impossible to change.
And inevitably will spill over (which is already noticeable, I believe).
