Do you know of any other nation other than the U.S. that REFUSES to defend its borders? There may be others that can't, but are there any that refuse?
ALSO, Isn't any president that refuses to control the borders in violation of his DUTIES as a president?
Isnt refusal to defend the borders cause to reject anyone who wishes to run for the highest office?

Unfourtunately we have the distinct honor of being the country with the most unprotected borders. The President and every single elected official in washington has the responsibilty to protect our borders at all costs, but you know as well as I that public office has become more of a personality contest than a position of responsibilty, if the gallop poll syas that 100 democrats want the borders open then evry democrat in washing will vote to open the borders. We the people have the right to protect our border and that will most likely be the solution in years to come.

Yea and this crap has been going for how many decades now?
Its not just W, its Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Regan, Bush, Clinton, and G.W. Bush and those are the ones I know some stuff about. There are likely many others.
Recent history - In the 1980's Regan granted amnesty to HOW many millions of illegals? Bush 41 didn't do anything and neither did Clinton. Now GW Bush wants to grant amnesty to how many millions MORE? This kinda program is INSANE. How many millions of Americans lost jobs that went to Mexico and other countries? Has anyone been around a construction site in the last 5 years? 1/2 to 3/4 of the folks there are speaking SPANISH. We are told the the illegals are taking jobs that no one wants. I asked an American brick layer how much he makes an hour and its $29.00. So this is one of those low paying jobs that they are talking about? Give me a freaking break.
These illegals come into the country, get free health care, free food, free schooling, pay no taxes, send back about $40 billion to Mexico each year, and I have to live with it? BS!! Send those folks back across the damn border, fence that baby up. If you want to come in legally, fill out the paperwork! Cross the border illegally, risk the chance of getting shot dead (worse case).

Ask the Native Americans. No, we are not alone, most countries have similar border policies when it is to their benefit. To say the president isn't defending the borders is a stretch from reality. Define "defend the borders" before asking that last question.

i would tend to agree with you. defending our borders is one of it not the most important thing our government is supposed to do. To allow what has happened in this country to me is something that should be dealt with right now and have people be held accountable for their actions. I know this is impossible due to many people no longer being in office or around, but we need to make a stand to support the borders of this country. I don't understand why many people don't feel this issue is important. I guess they think with their hearts instead of their minds. People go nuts over abortion, school, medical issues, crime, etc... But don't realize most ot the other problems exist or programs are in trouble due to the illegal population in this country. Why is health care so expensive.. illegals.. why are the prisons overcrowded.. illegals... why are there major issues in our school systems? illegals.. why is the crime rate so high?? illegals. Illegal immigration is something that should be high on the priority list for a presidential candidate, but unfortunately, this is not what is happening right now...

What are you going on about? Your president invaded two countries in order to defend your borders. Are you suggesting he should invade some more countries when he is already getting his *** kicked in the first two?
If you are referring to the influx of Mexicans to do work that Americans refuse to do, the solution is in your own hands. STOP BELLYACHING AND TAKE THE WORK THAT IS AVAILABLE. If you can't live on the salary, then cut back on your expenses. Stop whining about the loss of health benefits because you are not entitled to them under your constitution. Your internal problems are caused by the people who say :ME. ME. ME. F*** YOU!
And no, we don't want your country. We have enough problems of our own.

Unfortunately, the oath he swears to, only says to uphold the constitution. It doesn't say anything about taking cooperate interests over the well being of the public. However, by ignoring federal law, he is derelict in his duties. That would be a possible grounds for impeachment.

And more to that point...they blame the neighbouring countries for 'letting in' terrorists and the like. Canada is not responsible for stopping people from coming into the US...it is the US border patrol responsible for that...
