I don't. But that seems to be the new tactic they are using for amnesty.

Nope, I had to figure out how to get into college on my own. My parents could not afford to send me, but made too much to be considered for assistance.

Tancredo, Ron Paul, and Hunter have the most conservative voting records on immigration.

Of these three, Ron Paul has the best chance of winning the Primary election.
Paul's campaign has almost 4 times as much money to spend as Tancredo.

This is his six point plan:
Physically secure our borders and coastlines. We must do whatever it takes to control entry into our country before we undertake complicated immigration reform proposals.
Enforce visa rules. Immigration officials must track visa holders and deport anyone who overstays their visa or otherwise violates U.S. law. This is especially important when we recall that a number of 9/11 terrorists had expired visas.
No amnesty. Estimates suggest that 10 to 20 million people are in our country illegally. That’s a lot of people to reward for breaking our laws.
No welfare for illegal aliens. Americans have welcomed immigrants who seek opportunity, work hard, and play by the rules. But taxpayers should not pay for illegal immigrants who use hospitals, clinics, schools, roads, and social services.
End birthright citizenship. As long as illegal immigrants know their children born here will be citizens, the incentive to enter the U.S. illegally will remain strong.
Pass true immigration reform. The current system is incoherent and unfair. But current reform proposals would allow up to 60 million more immigrants into our country, according to the Heritage Foundation. This is insanity. Legal immigrants from all countries should face the same rules and waiting periods.

The NAFTA Superhighway might be another significant threat to American borders.

There is a thing called a student visa, which anyone who is not a US citizen or green card holder can apply for to enter college.
But, no I do not feel sorry for them, they broke the US law. Would feel sorry for them if the stole a car?..or maybe killed someone?...should we reward them ???
As in all cases they have broken the law and should deal with the consequences

No, let the illegals attend college in their own country. Illegal aliens should not be allowed to attend any publicly supported college in the US. If La Raza wants them to attend US colleges, that let La Raza pay their entire tuition.

If they were brought here as young children, yes, I feel sorry for them. They made no choice in coming here, and, having been raised here their entire lives (having not gone to Mexico- to even visit), their deportation would be no different than if you or I were deported. Yes, it is the fault of the parents, but, as a modern society, we know we can't hold children responsible for the act of their parents.......

Illegal means you have broken the law in some way; therefore I do not think we should feel sorry for anyone who does this, illegal immigrants or others.

It seems to me that there are colleges in most other countries besides ours. So that begs the question, is someone just looking for a free ride when we had to pay ours?

No. Feel sorry for the legal people who have trouble attending college.

I feel sorry for anyone who has the dream of a good education and can't achieve it. But I am compassionate, unlike others...
