How many of us Americans honestly think that we will make a difference on the illegal immigration during?

Question

the next election by voting out our leaders who did nothing on the issue? Regardless of which party they "represent" do you honestly think choosing different candidates from either major party will make a difference. Aren't both parties purposely making no real effort to enforce immigration policy because they fear alienating the emerging and potentially powerful Hispanic/Latino voting bloc for the future? Furthermore, just like from the creation of our country (weren't all our Founding Fathers from the politically powerful and wealthy colonial families and the Revolution was largely for their financial benefit?) don't the candidates from both parties for higher office only come from extremely wealthy, poweful families (just look at the last Presidential election). Why should we expect any difference in actual enforcement on the illegal immigration issue when, regardless of party, our leaders are the very people that seem to benefit the most from illegals as a source of cheap labor

Answer 1

You notice how closing the border is not on anyone's agenda? Notice how the media has dumped the issue? Notice how convicting employers that hire illegals is on the back burner - again? And of course the "activist" where are the protests, the marches, and all that public stuff?

Its all under the rug so the incumbents can get re elected and then pass down the amnesty and open up the border in a busines as usual mantra.

Answer 2

In the last few elections there has seemed to be a populist vs. elitist split, as much as a party split. We need different parties who don't have entrenched, overwhelmingly influential constituencies. For the Democrats that is big labor and certain industries. For the Republicans that is globalist business and big national business.

However, it will take at least an election cycle to get people to believe they won't be throwing their vote away to vote for a new party. Perhaps if there were internet 'trial votes' so people could be persuaded, pre election, that their candidate had a chance, that would work. Right now to vote for a third party is to take your vote out of consideration, and split your 'party's" influence.

As to the Hispanic Latino vote, they are being spoken of as if they were the majority, and as if they all voted the same way, when in fact neither is true.

In a close race, having a large number of them on your side would help. However, if the majority turns against a politician (including, usually at least a significant portion of the 'Hispanic vote') having the bulk of a minority vote will only be a consolation prize.

Also, not all our leaders came from wealthy backgrounds. Lincoln, Reagan.... the list is long.

We can knock out those who voted wrong ONLY where the replacement will be better on this issue, and that should make enough change to make the others take notice - for the moment.

i imagine its tremendous that those each individual is status up for them self yet I also recognize they might want to no longer have every person it really is on the point of them unlawful(it really is hard to discover now days).each hispanic individual i recognize or artwork with is by some skill in touch with an unlawful.it really is why such an rather good type of on right here get their less than-ware in a knot over this difficulty,its because they have a interest in a unlawful both by technique of a courting with one or they use them as less costly exertions.I actually have reported this formerly there is no longer a unlawful lover that could want to provide a flying f### about an unlawful German or Irish newborn because he/she to them, might want to be considered white and all professional-illegals project about is the little hispanic newborn or relatives.and they have the nerve to call different racist.

Answer 4

I AM making a difference. I will never give up this fight and I will continue to ally myself with people who feel the same. People like Jim Gilchrist and Ted Hayes, true patriots leading the way in this fight for our country's sovereignty. We've made great strides in the last year or so. We the people, stopped the Senate bill S 2611 and we the people will make our voices heard come November.

Answer 5

The US government is retarded, and I'm getting sick of it. It shouldn't be rich people running the government. They're just selfish and they want illegal immigrants here for slave labor. They don't even care if it makes everyone else poorer. Soon enough, we'll end up like Mexico, or any other 3rd world country with a sucky government. We need to elect SMART, THOUGHTFUL, CARING leaders for our country. But right now, our government is screwed. Thanks a lot, Bush!

Answer 6

My voting decision will be based more on the equity of the candidates philosophies, rather than on this one issue.

By equity, I mean their genuine fairness and practicality on all the major issues. Regarding immigration, it isn't practical to cause the deportation of millions out of the USA. The Nazi party began by deporting Jews out of Germany, but, seeing the impracticality of a mass deportation numbering in the millions, sought a worse solution.

Before we, as a society, implement any solution, I feel it best we clearly define "freedom" and our relation with it.

Answer 7

Nothing will change and nothing will happen until we begin to make our home soil a priority. America is not High up on the list of American politics priorities, it seems to be what gets the most air time.

Not going to happen, will never happen.....Mexico will end up as a Ancillary state........

Answer 8

We will and do make a difference. If our elected officials will not stop this invasion and secure our borders,then we will take more drastic measures!

Answer 9

we must do something about this illegal immigration. they are killing our welfare system. why must we advertise in their language? latinos, i mean. most of anybody i talk to says the same thing and the same also say to put up that fence.

Answer 10
