It seems to me that the illegal immigration debate of who is right and who is wrong has become very focused on land....who took what land from who, who deserves to have it back, etc. In my belief "America" is a way of life, a band of people, a belief system, a culture. "America" is not land. America is a principal of freedom that was drempt of, fought for, gifted to others, many people died for, and many continue to fight for. Thanks to our ancestors we have something to believe in and it's not the land, it's a Way of life. Have we gotten so lost in our monetary selfishness that we have forgotten, America the DREAM? The men and their families who came here weren't seeking land. They came here pursuing freedom from Tyrany and the right to practice their own beliefs. America is a way of life. Anyone who still believes in America should be fighting for the basic fundamental principals our ancestors drempt of. The land or who was here first talk has nothing to do with "America".
