Stop Illegal Immigration NOW Or Immigrants Will Soon Out Vote You
By Warner Todd Huston Friday, February 1, 2008

I have a neighbor named George. He and his family have been great neighbors. We’ve exchanged gifts, attended parties together, helped each other out from time to time with one thing or another. Our kids have been friends. I like them all. They’re really great folks.

However, all but the father and one son out of a family of six are illegal immigrants by way of Mexico.

Last year, two of their sons got caught up by immigration and sent back to Mexico. George’s wife moved back to Mexico to be with her sons. George stays here with the eldest boy and their daughter. He works hard and misses his wife. Of course, she cannot come back because she was never a legal resident and has no papers.

It’s all a terribly rotten situation for George and his family and I know that I would be highly upset were I in his situation. But, his situation is not unlike that of millions of other families that have a mixture of legal and illegal members living in the U.S.

And therein lies a problem. Yes it is a problem for them, but it is also a problem for anyone interested in stricter border control and enforcing current immigration laws or creating new ones. And it is a problem that looms larger every single day. It is a problem that is born of our own democratic system: Voting.

You see, once a Mexican national (or other immigrant) becomes a legal, voting resident he comes to have his fair, democratic say in the process. Ordinarily, it is a fine thing that a new citizen exercises his newfound duty to become a voter as a new member of our society. But, in this case, if that new voter has illegal immigrant family members, he comes to the polls with a built in prejudice against U.S. sovereignty and border control.

In essence, when asking a newly legalized U.S. citizen to vote on tougher immigration laws, we would be asking him to vote to allow his mother, father, sister or brother to be deported. By asking for this new voter to vote on stricter border laws, we are making it tougher for his extended family, should they be illegals, to visit and work here.

A recent Pew Hispanic Center survey has some interesting results on these issues. The survey asked Hispanics living in the U.S. a battery of questions and their answers reveals a split between the foreign born and those born here in the U.S. But, on several areas the two segments agree.

• On the question of drivers’ licenses for illegals, the foreign born are 55% in favor of allowing undocumented aliens to get licenses. The native born are 60% against that idea.
• 89% of the foreign born say that immigrants “strengthen the United States,â€

If anyone doubts this just take a look at California. Half the state legislature is latino. They are left-wing "kooks" who stay in office by continuing the pandering to illegals (their constituents) and basically thumbing their noses at the rest of us. Unfortunately we've been the test tube for social engineering at the expense of the hard-working middle-class.

Call your local Republican Office ASAP and ask them to support Mitt Romney.

He has the best defense with his strong offense of wanting to send illegals back to their county of orgin and equal the playing field regarding NAFTA with tarriffs. He wants to save the American Auto Makers.

Mitt Romney has the best solid plans for our Country.

The sad part of all of this information is that our elected officals have known this for many years. Those who claim different are either liars or inept and should not be public leaders anyhow.

How many politicians get run over by trains and then claim "I did'nt see it coming."
