 It’s Illegal Immigration Stupid! Why McCain and Hillary Will Never Be President

President, Americans for Legal Immigration PAC
The next round of polling data will show a dramatic drop in support for
the candidacy of Hillary Clinton for President. We know this because of
the precedent set by John McCain and Senators Harry Reid, Lindsay
Graham, and Trent Lott who all experienced massive drops in their
support levels after making the mistake of coming out in favor of
assistance for or amnesty for illegal aliens instead of enforcement of
our existing immigration laws.
Hillary Clinton will take the “McCain Plunge” because of her recent
support for licenses for illegal aliens and subsequent flip-flop on the
issue.
By coming out in support of licenses for illegal aliens she has taken a
stance that national polling data shows 77% of Americans disagree with!
Then by reversing her stance to oppose licenses for illegal aliens, she
has angered the 15% of Americans that support the program. All the
while, she has shown 100% of Americans that either side of the
immigration debate cannot trust her! The results will be a first class
campaign killer that will send Hillary’s support numbers down on a
deadly spiral similar to the “McCain Plunge” that took him from the
first place spot in the GOP Primary to 4th place due to his overt
support for “Comprehensive Immigration Reform” which is widely viewed
as Amnesty for illegal aliens.
Clinton came out in support of licenses for illegal aliens when asked
about Governor Elliot Spitzer’s (D-NY) plan to give licenses to illegal
aliens during the Democratic Presidential debates at Drexel University
on October 30, 2007. She went on to criticize President George Bush for
not passing “Comprehensive Immigration Reform” which was an amnesty
plan offered to rewrite existing immigration laws that go un-enforced,
despite a super majority of support from American citizens, and place
illegal aliens in the US on a path to citizenship.
Clinton threw her support into a tailspin by making two mistakes. One,
by backing the licenses for illegals and secondly, by claiming she
thought “Comprehensive Immigration Reform” amnesty was a good idea.
She either ignored or failed to read about the poll conducted in her
home state of New York by the Siena (College) Research Institute that
showed 72% of her state’s voters rejected the licenses for illegals
plan described in the Queens Courier on October 18, 2007.
Her campaign did notice a November 6 national poll conducted by
Rasmussen Reports that found 77% of all American adults opposed
licenses for illegal aliens including 68% of Democrats and 75% of those
not affiliated with either major political party.
This information sent Hillary after Governor Spitzer to ask him to back
away from his unpopular plan because she knew it would cost her the
Presidency since she had come out in support of it at the Drexel
University debate! The obvious thing about this part of the story is
that Clinton asked Spitzer to back off of the plan until after the
elections, not for good.
Then, she tried to reverse her stance during the November 15, 2007 CNN
Debates. When asked if she supported licenses for illegal aliens she
simply said “No”.
So there you have it folks! If you are part of the 77% of Americans
opposed to licenses for illegal aliens, you know that Hillary thinks it
is a “smart idea” but she is willing to lie to you about it in order to
win the election. If you are part of the 15% of Americans that support
licenses for illegal aliens then Hillary just damaged your cause while
showing she is willing to lie to America about her true stance.
Most of the Democratic candidates, especially Hillary Clinton and
Barack Obama, are spouting that they are for Comprehensive Immigration
Reform, an amnesty that would put most illegal aliens in the US on a
path to licenses and citizenship!
Did these candidates and their staff miss the stellar plunges that the supporters of those radical plans took?
John McCain will never be President because he fell from 1st place to
4th or 5th in the GOP field after supporting Comprehensive Immigration
Reform Amnesty.
Rasmussen Reports polling found that only 16% of Americans believed the
Comprehensive Immigration Reform bills would decrease illegal
immigration. Attempts to pass this legislation and the similar Dream
Act Amnesty failed four times in 2007 with angry calls coming into
Senate offices 50 to 1 against the act. The call volume was so heavy
that it actually overloaded and shut down the capitol phone systems!
McCain’s support levels in the Republican primary fell like a brick to
only 10% of Republican voters nationwide. The Arizona Star reported
(5/22/2—7) that angry Republican voters were storming into the GOP
state headquarters and tearing up their voter registration cards! By
mid June, McCain was being called a ‘Traitor’ by voters during regular
campaign stops and while approval ratings in his home state fell to
historic lows!
Immediately following McCain’s coalition effort to pass Comprehensive
Immigration Reform with Senator Ted Kennedy, the Republican National
Committee (RNC) had to fire their phone telemarketers because they
could not raise enough funds from the enraged Republican base that is
in a state of revolt against the legislation.
Within a few weeks, McCain’s fundraising plummeted and he started to
lay off staff. This generated speculation he might have enough sense to
pull out of the race all together.
McCain’s co-conspirators in Washington did not fare well either.
Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) was the main front man pushing the
Comprehensive Immigration Reform Bills. His approval ratings fell to
only 19%! Senator Graham’s numbers fell in South Carolina as well.
Then the bottom fell out.
In the middle of the debate of Comprehensive Immigration Reform,
Congress’s approval ratings fell to a historic low of 14% according to
Gallup polls! Bush’s numbers fell to the lowest level of his Presidency
into the 20’s. Rasmussen Reports tied the collapse of McCain and Bush’s
approval numbers to their unpopular support of “Comprehensive
Immigration Reform” amnesty!
The final blow to the legislation came on June 21, when the media
reported the latest Zogby poll numbers that only 9% of Americans
approved of how the President was handling immigration issues and only
3% approved of how Congress was handling it. While these low numbers
included some supporters of Amnesty that were not happy with the
legislative package, the focuses of the President and Senate at the
time of these readings were in favor of Comprehensive Immigration
reform. As an experienced campaign consultant, I can tell you that
readings like this are both historic and unprecedented!
So now we have a slate of Democratic Presidential candidates
proclaiming their love of Comprehensive Immigration Reform Amnesty as
well as several Republicans.
And why would they support legislation that only has less than 20%
support from the American public instead of supporting attrition
enforcement measures that show 70-80% public support? It is because
special interest groups, including the US Chamber of Commerce Political
Action Committees that provide the vast majority of funds needed to run
and win for President, support the Comprehensive Immigration Reform
Amnesty and Open Borders Agenda.
These global corporations are making a lot of money off the sellout of
America. In fact, many believe it is their influence over the Bush
administration that has led to the non-enforcement and under
enforcement of our existing immigration laws. We may be looking at the
biggest corporate and political scandal in American history. Many of us
envision a future where those responsible for this crisis are
investigated, prosecuted, and put on public trial for what they have
done to our nation and the founding principles of our country.
Will America remain the land of the self governed or will this radical Open Borders minority win?
The answer depends on two important factors. One, how many Americans
will seek to determine which candidates support this radical agenda and
to shout about it from the rooftops from now to Election Day to warn
our fellow countrymen. Two, which candidates will truthfully support
our existing immigration laws that would greatly reduce the number of
illegal aliens in America if enforced over a period of years?
Will elite global corporations be the rulers of America or will the American public run the show?
The future is yours to decide.
