Throughout America, the immigration issue is a major concern for voters and candidates alike; we can talk about the war in Iraq, but it's not in our communities, we can discuss environmental concerns, but if don't see affects of the Greenhouse concerns, then it is only discussed. But, we live with, work with, and shop with immigrants daily; not only for the large city dwellers, but also in our rural and small communities, we have become accustom to new residents from other countries, many here illegally and others not that are here legally.

Furthermore, we are aware that our nation was founded by immigrants, our relatives, so, we somewhat understand and emphasize with our new neighbors and fellow co-workers. All the immigrants really want is the same as our forefathers, better life! So, how did this problem get so out of hand?

Simply stated, we didn't enforce our current immigration laws, instead, employers exploited the new immigrants (lower wages), and, so what, if these businesses were caught with illegal immigrants, the fine(s) were so small versus the money they saved, it was only "good business", our "American way".
Now, we're forced to deal with this touchy issue; enacting new laws and hiring law enforcement officials to enforce them.

Presently, do we have strong enough Congress or President to do such? "No"!

This coming election, is one of the most important we have had in the last fifty years; look carefully at all the candidates and the issues of today, don't be locked into a certain party or personality, study all them and most importantly "vote".

I support Senator Obama and his proposed solution to this issue.

  • The only thing an illegal alien deserves is a one-way ticket home.

    Secure the border NOW! Enforce existing law NOW! E-verify NOW! End birthright citizenship NOW!

    Say no to the Chamber of Commerce cheap labor lobby and the racist, ethnocentric advocacy hate groups like La Raza (THE Race), Mecha, and Lulac.

    Say no to illegal aliens, the Outlaw Employers who profit from them at OUR expense, and the corrupt Rogue Politicians who ENABLE both. Say no to SHAMnesty!

  • Let me see if I understand all this....

    IF YOU CROSS THE NORTH KOREAN BORDER ILLEGALLY YOU GET 12 YEARS HARD LABOR......

    IF YOU GO INTO CHINA ILLEGALLY, YOUR CONSIDERED A SPY AND GET HARD PRISON TIME.....

    IF YOU GO INTO GERMANY ILLEGALLY, YOU GET A HEFTY FINE, WORK IT OFF OR PAY IT OFF, THEN DEPORTED........

    IF YOU GO INTO ENGLAND ILLEGALLY, YOU ARE IMMEDIATELY JAILED AND DEPORTED........

    IF YOU CROSS THE IRANIAN BORDER ILLEGALLY YOU ARE DETAINED INDEFINITELY....

  • this asshole left mexico 10 years ago and still can't speak English??? Fucking lazy douchebag, I came to this country barely speaking English and now speak four language,s why are mexicans always the exception? DiD I ever dial 2 for a different language when I was growing up? HELL NO!

    SPEAK ENGLISH OR LEAVE you syphoning parasitic mexican scumbag!

  • Lazy fucks. Why not "make a better life" in their own country? It took the blood of patriots to make a better lif ein the US.

    Where will Americans go once these sponges suck all this "better life" here?

  • Two sides? This is a biased piece of garbage.

  • I am a Latino. The Latins (Rome) entered Britan around 55 BCE and remained until around ~450 AD, Well over 2000 years before the remains of Rome (Spain) entered the Americas in the 1400s. That would make me more Latin than anyone in any Spanish Speak country of the Americas.

  • BUT, IF YOU CROSS THE U.S. .. BORDER ILLEGALLY YOU GET:

    1. A DRIVER LICENSE

    2. A SOCIAL SECURITY CARD

    3. WELFARE

    4. FOOD STAMPS AND

    5. FREE HEALTH CARE

    I still don't understand Maybe we need to vote our lawmakers out of office...

    GO GREEN!! REPLACE CONGRESS WITH FRESH PEOPLE!!!

  • This video is NOT backed by any statistics whatsoever. I've noticed alot of responses from Latinos. But, here's my question for you: HOW WOULD YOU LIKE IT if millions of people flooded into your country ? Of course, you would see things differently.

  • Right, so it's ok to rob a bank if you need the money. C'mon.

  • Real simple to say when you dont have to wait 7-10 years for a yes or no answer on if you get to be a US citizen.

    Immigration system is broke. You know it, I know it, America knows it!
