They should have packed his things and put him on conveyance to Kenya, with a warning that illegal entry to the U.S. again will put him in jail permanently, solitary confinement, maximum security.

Hmmmm... under what law or laws is the punishment for illegal immigration life imprisonment in solitary confinement?
Immigration is the primary tool used to depress wages in all sectors of our economy and does great harm to our citizens. We need to actually eliminate almost all of the immigration until our economy really needs more people. I do not see that happening very soon.
Actually, I would have to disagree somewhat. One of the truisms of free trade is that labor and work will find each other.
Among the reasons the United States became the world's economic engine in the first place was because for 200 years it was the world's largest free trade zone, allowing regions to specialize as industry centers. The combination of American personal mobility with regional specialization always engendered the same sort of social and economic dislocations we are seeing today, and entire regions became depressed economic backwaters. But we put up with them because for most of history it was a zero sum game internally. West Virginia might lose to Pennsylvania, but at least it stayed within the family. Today we are seeing the same thing, but on a global scale rather than a national one.
That said... capitalism demands that if work can't come to the jobs, the jobs will go to the work. And I would contend that the primary tool used to depress our wages is not immigration, but expatriation of jobs to lower cost countries. The jobs that cannot be moved (and that therefore attract immigrants) are not the high paying manufacturing and service jobs that have traditionally supported the American middle class. These jobs can be moved, and we have seem of vast number of them head overseas.
Mexico is not the source of our wage problems. China and India are.
uhhh, can anyone explain to me what evidence they have that this guy is in touch with the President, or the White House, other than the fact that he SAID he was going to call the White House?
Surely, but, assuming you are intelligent human beings, you can come up with something better than this nonsense.
Nice deflection attempt but it fails badly. Feel free to try again.
I'm sure nephew Obama will weigh in and just say the cops "acted stupidly".
Something along these lines ought to clear things up:
