The people in the United States got together to set up a society that served them. That is OUR birthright, and I think it's fair. Everyone who comes here has a society back home that was established for their benefit.

There are processes in place to allow immigration. If those processes are flawed then that should be corrected, but I am not supportive of establishing a peer relationship between those that are citizens, non-citizens who are here legally and those that are here illegally. I also don't agree with the establishment of a form of second-class citizenship (guest worker) because there's only one kind of citizen and everyone else is either a visitor, a guest, or a criminal.

Illegal immigration drives down wages for the working class american, and I will not apologize for advocating that the Democratic party should represent them first.

Do I agree with cutting off medical care for illegals? No, because it's impractical. Doctors will still treat illegals regardless. If the government doesn't pay, the hospitals will just push the costs onto the rest of us.
