they should will boost economy wise i mean we do owe a lot of money and if immigrants get their citizenship and social security they will pay taxes and contribute to our debt of the war and other needs.

If we don't then we will be like we were 50 years ago we will make them drink on other water fountains and make them go to other schools and yeah repeat out mistakes again

but as a society we are to advance and smart we don't want to be mock by other countries also this country was establish by immigrants people do you research don't talk because u want to look good say something that makes sens so our society should shut up and think what they say and don't make slurs on people that came her from fleeing their countries and escaping there dictatorships and from being killed so lets get our heads out of our asses and make the right direction and go forward not backwards and think of out future and out children

It's hard to take seriously anyone who has such obvious issues with the English language. Spelling and punctuation would go a long way towards making your comments understandable.

The only way current illegal aliens in this country should ever be able to gain citizenship is to leave and go back to where they came from and wait there, outside this country. If an illegal is EVER on record as being in the US illegally, then they should forfeit their chance to get citizenship, regardless of whether they promise to be Democratic voters.

Actually, it was just jorge and his handlers, all those scumbag employers of illegals, that wanted them. Now you've jumped on the bandwagon and are hoping to engineer a permanent Democratic majority with all those illegal future Democratic voters, if amnestied, even if it ruins the country.

Any illegal who is sincere about becoming a legal USA citizen has the option of going home and starting the process the right way.

No one should be rewarded for having broken the law, no illegal should be given anything ahead of someone who has followed the legal process, respected our laws.

The Republicans are between a rock and a hard place. They can keep opposing comprehensive immigration reform, not necessarily amnesty, and lose a whole generation of Latino Voters in the long terms. Or they can make the base happy for now and make minor to middle gains among conservatives. I know of at least 5-10 districts in Southern California that could be very competitive when the Latino population grows into a greater electoral force.

And; there are many American Latinos who would gladly vote Republican precisely for the reasons you outlined.

Even though I don't support open borders, I'd say yes. So long as they don't have a violent criminal record, I'd be fine with it.

I would, of course, like to see something done to stop the uncontrolled flood from across the border first, though.
