47. I'm sorry but I just can't buy your ideas because I don't believe you are being honest.

Your job isn't threatened by a bunch of migrant workers. It is true that the immigrants take jobs that most of us don't want to do because they don't pay enough. The wage scale will not go up if the illegals left. It will only go up if workers unite. Immigrants and Anglos should learn to team up for a better life for all.

I can't help but believe all these xenophobic ideas are racism couched in self righteousness. Turn on the Hispanic demographic and you lose, it's that simple.

If you really wanted to win election after election you would stop this pilling on the backs of immigrants. Stop scapegoating them. They are here and they are not going away. We all should learn to live together and make a better life for all.

Further more Tom Hartman can be as xenophobic and any of us. He doesn't set the bar.
