Just tuned in to this, belatedly...so I'll add a pair of pennies to the Laments. I don't think Immigrants, legal or otherwise, are America's Priority Problem. Historically, the American Indians were the ones with the BIG Immigrant Problem, & even THEY seem to be finding a "fix" with their burgeoning Casino-Building & Income, belated tho it be.
No, America's problem seems to be the Wealthier of Us don't have any Conscience about exporting America's Lower-Paying JOBS to some other Countries. As this takes place, the Unions that got the Wages up, & Benefits in-place, have had less-&-less Members..& Political Influence. So our Labor Force, probably one of the Best-Educated on the Planet, has less & less to DO. & with less & less to SPEND, why, let's all head to Wal-Mart & get the CHEAPEST Goods we can buy...(Hmmm..."Made in CHINA"?)
So guess WHY our money HERE keeps getting worth LESS and LESS abroad?
MEANWHILE, The Corporate GREED continues to drive up prices on Basic Commodities at a ridiculous rate: Insurance, Gasoline, now Foodstuff (Corn & Soybeans recently DOUBLED if you were paying attention). &, because the Buck's headed-South, your House's APPRAISAL also probably Doubled not TOO long ago. So your TAXES went up.
Now, unless your WAGES have also Doubled in recent years, you're NOT living in America as WELL as you think.
So..what Candidate has the Answers to "Job Creation (& retention)" and "New Industry" for this Country? If they DON'T, watch Americans become "The New Mexicans" before too-long.. (People tend to head off to where the Money-Earned BUYS Something...)
JMO, Big Hugs, Stan

"The great thing about a dream come true, is that it is born with a great appetite. That appetite keeps it growing and evolving and it swallows up all those other dreams you have and spits them back out as reality as well." -Brian Austin Whitney
