[Yes, we're winning this battle. However, I have a feeling that the illegal immigration threat to the U.S. is like a cancer....it will go into remission, but we have to stay on top of itt all times to make sure it doesn't come back.

And if it does come back, we have to get rid of it immediately before it spreads again.

We can never rest with regard to illegal immigration. We can never get too confident or apathetic.]

I agree the cancer needs to removed with surgery by cutting out the lobbying where La Raza has to much of a voice with our Congress. They should be using their vocal talents[hot air] on the Mexican Government insead of ours.

DeeDee, You are so right. I have been saying all along that if these illegals can protest so damn good then why in the hell don't they do it in their own country!!?? Why are all of their men running from the problem instead of standing up to the problem. FIX THE PROBLEM DON'T RUN FROM IT!!

Some people still have trouble discussing the issue..because of all the "racist, xenophobia" labels. I know people who say they have heard on MainStream Media that the Minutemen are "racist, nativist, extremists." When I tell these people to go to the Minutemen Site and look at it for themselves..These people say..."That site is monitored by the SPLC and the government and I don't want to get on any "list."
I was warned about posting on Alipac and joining Fair..that it could be a dangerous thing to do..Most of my friends agree with me about illegal immigration but.....they are afraid..
That is the kind of suppression and repression that has made it so hard.
It takes courage to say..."Illegal immigration is a problem" even when the person complaining about illegal immigration was a victim of an illegal immigrants crime and there are Millions of Victims
Yes, it is frustrating but..it has to be done..

WECOME XYZ glad to have you on Alipac.


If it wasn't for people like you and us this issue wouldn't even be debated right now in the Presidential campaign. Do you realize this is the first campaign that it has become a big issue. It has taken the place of social security as a new third rail issue. It's Tancredo, Hunter, NumbersUSA, Alipac and, of course, bless their little hearts, those who march in our streets with foreign flags DEMANDING from the American citizen their "rights." That was it for me. The curtain came down and won't ever go up again. I'll beat this drum until my last breath.

You should have seen my daughter-in-laws face when I gave her some facts at Christmas during our visit. Her shock was real and she looked confused. They work long hours and its hard to do what we do, so its up to people like us to inform our relatives, neighbors, and friends. As we build they can't ignore us anymore.

Frustrated? yes; Quitting? NO!!!

When I first came to ALIPAC and was new to this issue, I felt I was almost alone in my feelings about what I had been witnessing locally. Then I found there was a good number of people across this country, but yet felt the people I knew just did not "get it".

Now, I am seeing so many people locally, people in the grocery line, people at the banks, in public places and family and friends who have joined in and are throughly fed-up. The sheer numbers now shows how much a grassroots organization like ours and, many others, can make such a difference in opening peoples eyes, and showing them they can, and should, speak out.

Now we are seeing a resurgence in civic minded Americans, who are patriotic and want more than just to financially prosper, they want their country back and are willing to become active to do it.

Frustration is a by product of anger, and anger is an emotion, emotions will come and go as well as our frustrations. Let's keep that bottled up to use it to help us maintain this steam.

We all know we are in for the long hall.
We won't let them take over OUR Country!

My family and myself salute the members of this forum. This whole dream of ours seems impossible to accomplish but little by little the politicians are listening.

Depending on where you live depends on how many listen to you. I live in Miami and I try to call or write to some government office every week. In fact, I'm calling the USCIS at 9am to ask why my papers got pushed back again, and hispanics got in front of me for no reason. They can wait 5 years like I did!

Anywho I'm going to visit Mr. Martinez here in Miami once again to ask him what the heck is going on. I went to him for immigration help, and he didn't care at all! I'm still under 21. My father sponsored me for my green card. He is very abusive, and I can't stay in this house any longer. Because I'm non hispanic, no one cares in Florida. BUT I still make sure my voice is herd. Weather it's me yelling at the USCIS on the phone at the store, by writing online/e-mails or even calling up places. It's tough to make people listen, but they only know the hispanic side of the story. They never think about other immigrants or even the legal immigrants who have a hard time.

It sucks, but we have to educate the american public about this. Only a few on TV (lou) do this and he reaches only a portion of the population.

I feel the tide turning back, but I think were only at the half-way point now, the tide could go either way so we have to keep pushing harder. For now I think its going to other website to talk about illegal immigration and when possible in public - definitely with friends, neighbors and politicians. We need to present them facts.

You're absolutely right, JRB! Actually, I think a candidates voting record should be the main tool utilized in determining the expectations of future actions, not campaign rhetoric. The core is where the real substance is found, not the surface coating.
