apparently members of such groups are very well accepted between the anti-immigrant community so their answer i pretty sure would be yes . an exapmple of this is one of the main members Tom Tancredo who is part of the minute man group and has been invited by other organization which is also known for their racism .
this is from wikipedia about Tancredo :
On September 11, 2006, in Columbia, South Carolina, Tancredo spoke to a gathering of the "Americans Have Had Enough Coalition", which he had helped found.[2] The League of the South invited its members to the event, describing Tancredo as their "guest".[2] This neo-Confederate organization draws much criticism from all parts of the political spectrum, and has been described as a racist hate group. According to reports, the room in which Tancredo spoke had a prominent picture of Robert E. Lee and was draped with Confederate battle flags.[2] At the closing of the event, men dressed in full Confederate military regalia present stood up and began to sing "Dixie," the unoffical anthem of the Confederate States of America.[2]
Several days after this incident, Tancredo came under heavy criticism from a group of Denver ministers for attending the function.[3] A significant number of them called for Tancredo's resignation from the U.S. House of Representatives. Said the Reverend Paul Burleson, "for a United States congressperson to attend this function and not to be concerned about the confederate flag on the same stage is a disgrace." Tancredo refused to consider resigning, and insisted he had nothing for which to apologize for :

here another example from other leader from the minute man which runs away as he is confronted about his links to a known racist organization and how FOX NEWS misspressented what really happened :

.......... ............. .............. ................ ................ ............ ..........
i did a search an apparently they are talking ( typing ) about almost the exact same things some of the people who come to the immigration forum talk about . they are talking about how they are against the northamerican union , they are talking about a civil war , they are talking about how the minute man will have to build the fence by themselves and all of that right on ther website :
North American Union to Replace USA by Jerome R. Corsi
Why doesn’t President Bush just tell the truth? His secret agenda is to dissolve the United States of America into the North American Union. The administration has no intent to secure the border, or to enforce rigorously existing immigration laws. Securing our border with Mexico is evidently one of the jobs President Bush just won't do. If a fence is going to be built on our border with Mexico, evidently the Minuteman Project is going to have to build the fence themselves. Will President Bush protect America's sovereignty, or is this too a job the Minuteman Project will have to do for him?
WHEN will YOU be ready to strike a blow for FREEDOM? I PERSONALLY WILL NOT allow this destruction of OUR country without putting up a FIGHT! Kinsfolk, you can no longer sit back ride the fence and not take a STRONG position in this situation we find ourselves in. JOIN with us NOW and help prepare for the BATTLE which is surely coming <<<<<<<< pretty much all the same the people wwho claim to not be racist type about in here

First of all, you sound dumb. Yahoo answers isn't going to solve the problem of illegal aliens in our country. All it does is provide a place on the web where people can "talk" about it. Nothing will ever happen. Secondly, if by "talking" about illegal immigrants in our borders means you are "fighting" illegal immigration... then you have a long way to go. How many polls and surveys have you participated in? How many letters have you written to your congress men and state representatives? Are you down in Texas with the minute men? Third, you sound like you are regurgitating stuff that you hear your friends say... Look at it this way: illegal immigration has always been a problem in America since day one directly after the revolutionary war. We (americans) made it our mantra to allow people to come to the "land of opportunity." In other words, we opened our borders to them. Certainly, there are problems with illegal immigrants in our country. I don't think they should get special treatments because they are not citizens. I think that businesses that employ illegal aliens should be subjected to fines. However, realize that these "illegals" are doing jobs in our country that no one else wants to do. They also pay taxes... so, any benefits they do recieve are paid for. The problem is less serious than you think. The greater issue here is that our country was already going bankrupt. Stopping illegal aliens won't fix that. We (america) have put ourselves in the hole... and we need to dig ourselves out. A few thousand extra people isn't that big of a deal when compared to other things. I also have never heard of any illegal alien complaining about the cost of gas, food, and living... I hear more middle class white people complaining about those things. So, it seems that we are all in the same boat whether we like it or not. Tough. Get over yourself for a second, and try to see what's really happening. We (americans) are distracted by the immigration issue and global warming to the point that we don't see the bigger problems. How about the fact that our soldiers are still dying over seas? How about the fact that 47 million americans don't have health insurance because they can't afford it? How about the gas prices? Exxon Mobil sold 75% of the oil they drilled last year to china, which is one of the reasons our prices are going through the roof. How about the fact that prime rate dropped to 2.5 last quarter and cause a massive inflation to our economy? How about the fact that the government is handing out cash this year just to boost the economy, even though we all know they don't actually have that money... they are putting themselves further in debt. What about those things? And here you are complaining about a few border hoppers.

I wouldn't think so. Those are racist organizations. The fight against illegal immigration has nothing to do with racism. People are welcome to immigrate from any nation. They just have to do it legally.
The Pro-illegal forces try to accuse those who want our immigration laws enforced, but that's not what the battle is about.
Its just like the president accusing the Minutemen of being vigilantes, because they are doing what he is supposed to, but refuses to do.

Being against illegals is not racist,since illegals are not "a" race. BTW,David Duke and Cindy Sheehan are both anti-Israel and against the war. Go figure!
Seems like you care more about illegals then citizens.

NO not really. We don't allow those kinds of people ...anymore than we want/allow LaRaza, MECHA or PEW.
They are all focused on only their own racial agendas. It's downright UN AMERICAN.

Why not? Just because we're proud of our heritage doesn't necessarily mean we're racists out to kill non-whites. When it comes down to it, we're Americans too - and we have the right to stand up and fight for what's ours.
Of course you're going to get many responses that will say it's 'racist' to ask this question, or they're generalize and say that we're all racists who want to kill everyone who's not white.. Etc.. etc.. Personally, if you're an American, I believe you have the right to take part in anything that's thrown at your country. For those who say it's not PC or it's 'racist' - it's time they seriously grow up and pull their head out of the sand.

I think that any American citizen should be allowed to participate, as long as they do so within the law.
