It's actually a VERY credible source. First Pew, now Benson? What about the news organizations and studies you guys cite? Some of those ACTIVELY say they biased, yet continually it is portrayed as unbiased fact.
All the studies and polls they cite come from anti-immigrant groups founded by that racist John Tanton.
Hahaha.. can't handle the poll results...then discredit the polling entity. Classy. It's like when illegal supporters scream "racist".
Many people are too lazy to follow the issues closely. It's called the "dumbing down of America." It's obvious the people polled are resigned to the fact that we'll never be rid of the illegals and find it easier to accept them if they pay taxes like the rest of us.
Don't for a minute think that the majority of Americans really want illegal aliens clogging up our country. Let's put it this way: The educated citizens are far and away against illegal aliens.

Do you honestly believe that the Pew "Hispanic" center is not biased in any way, shape or form?

Please provide something to back up the highlighted claim, having been in the academic environment for the past 9 years, this has not been my experience.

Despite anti-immigrant groups repeated attempts to sway public opinion by scapegoating immigrants for the recession, new polling data suggests that the majority of likely voters actually support an overhaul of our broken immigration system--an overhaul that includes a path to citizenship for the roughly 12 million undocumented immigrants living in America.
A recent survey by Benson Strategy Group--a group who conducts polling for President Obama and Fortune 100 Companies--found that 71% of likely voters think undocumented immigrants should take steps to become legal taxpayers. Similarly, Celinda Lake of Lake Research Partners said recent polling data suggests that voters want undocumented immigrants out of the shadows and on the books:
I dont ming illegals becoming legal tax payers, just not legal citizens.
It would take 5 years of good moral character and tax paying before they are even eligible to became citizens.
The instantaneous citizenship that some anti-illegals claim amnesty is, it is not really instantaneous.
