Under cultivation

A man (Mexico) wearing a charro outfit and a big sobrero tosses seeds (distrust of U.S.) over Central America as he walks towards South America. In the background, Uncle Sam leans over a fence while holding a bag (diplomacy), a rake, and a hoe as he comments, "guess I better do some sowing in that field myself!"
