The premise of your question is false.

Some of us aren't swayed by either. I'm against importing cheap labor and then having to provide these poor who benefit only themselves and the employers education and services at our own expense. And I don't care what country we are talking about.
However, I am toying with the idea of turning independant. When I registered Republican, independants couldn't vote in the primaries. I'm not sure that is true any more, where I live now.

Hate isn't a factor in this. This is purely greed. In balance it isn't really cheap labor in a national sense but admittedly it is for the employer. In effect the population in general is subsidizing these employers by assuming all of the expenses incurred by the illegals (medical, welfare etc.) It is a way of moving tax money to big business in an indirect way.

Greed. There is no hate for Mexicans. If China was at our southern border it would be the same. Cheap labor and a high profit margin are what they are looking at.

I think we should have better labor law enforcement, to prevent the hiring of illegal aliens in the United States.
No one hates hispanics, or Mexicans, for that matter. I've read a lot of your posts, and there's a common theme to them, you either believe that there's hate, or, failing that, you'd like to agitate some negative feelings about the whole thing.
The issue is thus: Illegal immigration is just like it sounds, illegal, my belief is that the issue will eventually be resolved to the satisfaction of the majority of american voters...if special interest groups and so forth really believe in the primacy of labor from Mexico, then they should be moving their companies TO that country, instead of trying to hire within the United States in full breach of US labor law. Period. I think companies and private citizens that have indulged in illegal hiring in the past should be fined and held accountable, also. Let's have the laws, and the borders enforced, and an end simultaneously to the agit-prop and the neverending hyperbole...Mexico's got problems, invest your energies there...

i think republicans think of cheap labor but would never be friends with an illegal alien, but would let them clean their toilets and rake their yards.

It is a melting pot of both. Mostly, they are afraid of Mexicans strengthening the Democrats.
