Hi Silvia -- Well, the evidence is pretty strong that it's true that many, many people do, if not everyone. We have had tens of millions of illegal aliens sneak in (historically, over the past decades, not all at once of course), lines for visas in just about every country stretch all around the Embassy, and every poll in the Middle East shows that, even as Muslims burn our flag and decry us as the Great Satan, a majority of those same protesters would take residency in a heartbeat if they could. Entire countries south of our border are emptying into the U.S. -- they say more than half of Salvadorans have migrated, and in time a majority of Guatemalans will too. The largest Iranian expat community in the world is in L.A., the entire Irish countryside moved to the U.S. in a steady stream until recently, 10% of Israelis live in the U.S., and the largest Polish city outside of Poland has been Chicago.
We are the most diverse nation in the history of the world, and anyone can have a shot at success in the U.S., more than any other country.
So, not everyone wants to live in our country, but a heck of a lot do!

Because they're jealous..Look at all the complainers..." oh they're taking our jobs" uh not true...you've heard them all. People don't want to live here, they simply come to work for a few years ( most do anyways ) while sending money home to help their families because their country is poor

I don't know... but my first hint was the millions and millions of illegal aliens that stream across our borders. And the number of applications for legal immigrants.
That's a pretty good indication to me that a whole lot of people do want to live in the USA.

well in 1998 I move in USA I do my LEGAL paperwork
to become a LEGAL resident and then in may 2005
I become US Citizien from my personal experience
Americans do not think they just see a lots people
move in USA and many of this immigrants
they have a successful life in USA..
think about that you born in America and you see a guy
coming who knows from where and he have a better job
he purchase a new home he marry a beautiful woman
well I'm not surprised if Native America they are frustrated
to see all of this happen in front their eyes..
however I know many Americans they don't have no problems
with any kind of immigrants that is the good Americans..
so don't worry about what some American believe or says
and do not feel sorry if you are better of them..

Because even though they know they can be KILLED trying to enter illegally, they continue to do so, and then they move to MY town. Sure seems like they want to live here.
