"In the first  place, \nwe should insist that if the immigrant \nwho comes here in good faith becomes an American \nand assimilates himself to us, \n\nhe shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man \n\nbecause of creed, or birthplace, or origin. \n\nBut this is  predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an AMERICAN, \nand nothing  but an AMERICAN...\nThere can be no divided allegiance here. \n\nAny man who says he is an American, \nbut something else also, isn't an American at all! \n\nWe have room for but one flag, \nthe American flag! \nWe have room for but one language here,\nand that is the English language!\nAnd we have room for but one sole loyalty \nand that is a loyalty to\nthe\nAMERICAN PEOPLE!" \n  \n  Theodore Roosevelt 1907

Problem #1: Population \n\nThe first problem I see with the current state of the immigration laws is the significant rise in population that has, and will, continue to occur over the next fifty years. According to the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), an estimated 1.1 million immigrants, both legal and illegal, enter the United States every year. 700,000 of these are legal immigrants; 120,000 are refugees, and between 250,000 to 300,000 are undocumented or illegal “aliens” ( Baldwin, 1995). The United States population at the moment is roughly 288 million people. If this trend of aliens is not decreased, the population will reach 400 million by 2050. How many people can America hold? \n\nProblem #2: Benefits Illegal Aliens Recieve \n\nCurrently, under federal law, undocumented foreign citizens are eligible for emergency healthcare, free schooling from kindergarten through high school, and W.I.C. or Woman, Infants, and Children nutritional program ( Baldwin, 1995). This is important to note because there are currently between eight and ten million aliens currently living illegally in the United States. An estimated 2.5 million of these illegal aliens currently reside in the state of California alone, due to the agricultural jobs that are readily available for cheap labor (Kadetsky, 102). It should not be surprising then that the residents of California were outraged over the amount of money that they were being forced to spend, and the amount of resources that were being used to support aliens that are not “allowed” to be in the United States in the first place. \n\n \n\nProblem #3: Homeland Security\n\nIn the Fiscal year of 2002, which runs October 1 through September 30, the United States Coast Guard, which is the country’s primary maritime, or sea going, law enforcement agency, intercepted 4104 immigrants from various South American countries (USCG, Para 2). Since then, the numbers of immigrants intercepted by the Coast Guard, has continued to climb at an alarming rate; jumping to almost 11,000 in 2004, 9,500 in 2005, and currently with less than two months into the 2006 physical year, there have already been 1,000 migrants accounted for and processed through the Coast Guard (USCG, Para 1). Illegal immigration can potentially cost American tax payers billions of dollars a year. The United States Coast Guard, whose primary obligation is to prevent the loss of life at sea, can not stop this problem by its self, it is mearly the first line of defense. It is up to the rest of America to join the fight and help put an end to this awful practice.\n i couldnt agree more they should learn our language

"There's nothing wrong with being proud of your country, but if you want to leave it so bad, that you do so illegally, that doesn't sound like being proud of the your country."-- I have been saying this sence this started..I totally agree with you..I guess people frome the other countries know that if they protest at their country they will be shot or something--but they know they can get away with it here in the LAND OF THE FREE--NOTHING LIKE STABBING LADY LIBERTY IN THE BACK

I understand how you feel.  I am very sympathetic about the immigrants wanting to become citizens.  I believe that I would also do what ever I could to make a better life for my family.  BUT... the present protests going on, has really ticked me off, and one of the biggest reasons was seeing them waving the Mexican flag.  If they would like to become AMERICAN citizens then they shoudl all be waving the AMERICAN flag.  To me anyone that is waving the Mexican flag is saying in effect " I don't really want to give up my sovereignty to my country, I want to be a Mexican citizen with the rights here also" You just can't have it both ways.  There is nothing wrong with being proud of where you came from, but to be an American, your loyalty should be to the US

It is called Debating.\nIt is a part of the American process that makes immigrants want to come here.\n\nIt is also the manner in which the people can decide what they want and don't want in America, no matter what our government says.\n\nThat is what makes Americans free.\nNot, our government.\nAnyone can go to another country and work like a slave, it is those that won't that make the difference.\nIf Mexico and other nations are so bad, that their own people will not stand up against what they know is wrong, then American's don't want them either.\nAmericans are rebells, and when we unite we are powerful, give us the right leader, and as we have proved in the past, we are invinsible.\nOur race will take last place, and our joint efforts, will succeed.\nAmerica has not fought and won not one war without the support of the nation.\nHowever, once that support is lost, history dictates that it is never regained, and sometimes it even brought about civil war.\nIf you are not a fighter, you do not belong here.\nIf you want someone else to fight your battles for you, you do not belong here.\nIf you have come to learn how to fight for yourselves, we will teach everything we know.\nThat is the American way that brings illegal immigrants across our borders.\nIt is no easier in America than Mexico, England, Germany, Russia, and all of the Asian nations.\nWe are treated like criminals for being poor, and we are subjected to having our land, and homes taken from us at the will of local industry, and our local Mayors.\nWe go often without food, electric, gas, clothing, and everything else illegal immigrants say they come here for.\nThey come here to have someone else fight their battles, because they don't want to struggle anymore.\nBeing an American is a constant struggle, to attempt to keep control of our government, pay taxes, and pay living expenses, as well as support programs that our local, and federal government has set up for criminals (illegal immigrants).\n\nThe process of Debate is helping Americans decide which is the best way to handle this problem, and since it is such a big problem, and the 12 million illegal immigrants that took to our streets, to ensure we knew it.  \nAnd, believe me we are getting closer to making that decision.\nI have already made mine.\nI am not going to start from the top and work my way down either.  I am going to the root of the problem, the largest population of Illegal Immigrants in America.\nThe rest of the illegal immigrants will get the message, and understand, that on American soil, it is the American people that set how things are really done, not the government.\nIn truth our government is only an international business, that is due for an over haul.\nIf I walk into a business and it is Mexican owned, I am walking out.  It does not matter at this point if the Mexican owned business is operated by a legal Mexican immigrant.\nReason for this, because the mass majority of legal Mexican immigrants support illegal immigration, and financially support the human smugglers brining them across our borders.\nThose legal Mexican immigrants that do not support illegal immigration, are not standing up for America, so as a tenth generation American, I have nothing else that I would like to offer.\nMy wallet is closed.\nIf they think they were poor in Mexico, wait until they are poor in America where the cost of living has tripled the cost of living in Mexico, and is still rising.\nImmigration is vital to America's growth. but we must know who we are allowing in our country, and if you are a criminal by choice, then you are not welcome by the people.  It doesn't matter if our government accepts you, we won't.\nStand for Freedom and the Right to be an American.\nClose your wallets.\nAfter the largest population of illegals get's the message, other nation's immigrants will too.\nWe have no tolerance laws in our schools, at our places of work, and out in our social ar

Most definitely ! Reminds me of an old FDR quote during WW2.\n\nIt is a shame some Americans don't understand or support that quote. However, I think most Americans would agree.

First, this quote makes fun of the fact that people see society as an entity, when in reality it is composed of, well, people. Keeping this in mind...\nTo make it easier I'll break-down this quote as follows;\n-quote\n-litteral meaning\n-metaphorical meaning\n\n"society everywhere is in concpiracy against the manhood of everyone of its members."\n-everyone everywhere is in conspiracy against their own qualities and attributes (conventionally thought to be appropriate to a man) especially physical strength, courage, and determination\n-it seams people are purposely forcing themselves to forget what strength, courage, and determination are all about\n\n"society is a joint-stock company" \n-this portion is meant litterally\n- society is made up of people that all influence it individually, just as a joint stock company is made up of shareholders that also influence it individually\n\n\n"in which the members agree"\n-in which the stock holders agree\n-people  agree,\n\n"for the better securing of his bread to each share holder"\n-for the better securing of the food of each share holder\n-that in order to better secure their income\n\n"to surrender the liberty and culture of the eater"\n-to compromise the freedom and character of themselves\n-they should compromise themselves as people.\n\nTo sum up, The true meaning of the quote is:\npeople are inadvertantly destroying themselves. It's as if people feel that to succeed finantialy they must compromise the very characteristics that make us superior beings.\n\nhope this helps  good luck

Being an American is different to different people, however there are some things that true Americans all have in common: \nWe love our country above all others\nWe respect our leaders, even Bush, although we might not like them\nWe hold our flag dear to our hearts\nWe support our military TROOPS although not necessarily what they do or where they are sent\nWe will fight for our freedoms: choice, religion, speech, to bear arms, etc.\nWe want a safe and decent home for our children to grow up in\nWe strive to make our country a better place to live\nWe want our land to stay clean\nWe want to be able to converse with each other in a unified language (English)\n\nBeing American may mean different things to others like freedom to love who they want to regardless of gender or race, freedom to speak their own language with their families and friends, to wear the clothing of their homelands, to have the right to keep their cultures and to teach their children of their cultures. The USA is a diverse cultural country, that is what makes us American. It is not only white, black, olive, OR brown. It is white, black, olive, AND brown. Embrace the beauty of them all.

Here it is:\n\n Good evening. I have asked for a few minutes of your time to discuss a matter of national importance: the reform of America's immigration system.\n\nThe issue of immigration stirs intense emotions and in recent weeks, Americans have seen those emotions on display. On the streets of major cities, crowds have rallied in support of those in our country illegally. At our southern border, others have organized to stop illegal immigrants from coming in. Across the country, Americans are trying to reconcile these contrasting images.\n\nAnd in Washington, the debate over immigration reform has reached a time of decision. Tonight, I will make it clear where I stand, and where I want to lead our country on this vital issue.\n\nWe must begin by recognizing the problems with our immigration system. For decades, the United States has not been in complete control of its borders. As a result, many who want to work in our economy have been able to sneak across our border and millions have stayed.\n\nOnce here, illegal immigrants live in the shadows of our society. Many use forged documents to get jobs, and that makes it difficult for employers to verify that the workers they hire are legal. Illegal immigration puts pressure on public schools and hospitals, strains state and local budgets, and brings crime to our communities. These are real problems, yet we must remember that the vast majority of illegal immigrants are decent people who work hard, support their families, practice their faith, and lead responsible lives. They are a part of American life but they are beyond the reach and protection of American law.\n\nWe are a nation of laws, and we must enforce our laws. We are also a nation of immigrants, and we must uphold that tradition, which has strengthened our country in so many ways. These are not contradictory goals. America can be a lawful society and a welcoming society at the same time. We will fix the problems created by illegal immigration, and we will deliver a system that is secure, orderly and fair. So I support comprehensive immigration reform that will accomplish five clear objectives.\n\nFirst, the United States must secure its borders. This is a basic responsibility of a sovereign nation. It is also an urgent requirement of our national security. Our objective is straightforward: The border should be open to trade and lawful immigration and shut to illegal immigrants, as well as criminals, drug dealers and terrorists.\n\nI was the governor of a state that has a 1,200-mile border with Mexico. So I know how difficult it is to enforce the border, and how important it is. Since I became president, we have increased funding for border security by 66 percent, and expanded the Border Patrol from about 9,000 to 12,000 agents. The men and women of our Border Patrol are doing a fine job in difficult circumstances, and over the past five years, we have apprehended and sent home about 6 million people entering America illegally.\n\nDespite this progress, we do not yet have full control of the border, and I am determined to change that. Tonight I am calling on Congress to provide funding for dramatic improvements in manpower and technology at the border. By the end of 2008, we will increase the number of Border Patrol officers by an additional 6,000. When these new agents are deployed, we will have more than doubled the size of the Border Patrol during my presidency.\n\nAt the same time, we are launching the most technologically advanced border security initiative in American history. We will construct high-tech fences in urban corridors, and build new patrol roads and barriers in rural areas. We will employ motion sensors infrared cameras and unmanned aerial vehicles to prevent illegal crossings. America has the best technology in the world and we will ensure that the Border Patrol has the technology they need to do their job and secure our border.\n\nTraining thousands of new Border Patrol agents and bringing the m

Their agenda is for our FEDERAL LAWS TO BE IGNORED , and their Criminal Trespass into these sovereign United States to be rewarded with unlimited benefits that include the rights of American Citizenship! \n\nAs these large mobs of foreigners marched proudly under the flag of a foreign country to demand the right to live and prosper in the United States, they claimed that the issue is immigration. But their own actions reveal what is in fact a determined effort to FORCE Americans to ACCEPT LARGE FOREIGN COLONIES  in our midst, and to pay handsomely for the privilege of doing so. We have both the RIGHT and the moral MORAL OBLIGATION  to DEFEND AMERICA , and  JUST SAY NO !!!\n\n\nIt REALLY BURNS My *** That A Large Portion Of The Latin Community (Citizens And ILLEGAL ALIENS ALIKE) Are MARCHING On Our Cities Carrying The FLAG Of ANOTHER NATION , And DEMANDING The Rights Of AMERICAN Citizens... THAT Is The ICING On The Cake \n\nFolks .. You WANT To Be Treated Like AMERICANS Yet You Will Protest Under A FOREIGN FLAG ... And You Expect ME To RALLY With You And SUPPORT Your Cause??? \n\nI Think NOT.. Perhaps You Should Realize Exactly What It Is That You Are Trying To Accomplish... Because To ME It Looks Like An INVASION From A Foreign Army .. \n\nYou Wish To Become AMERICANS With The RIGHTS Of AMERICANS .. \nYet Many Of You REFUSE To SPEAK My/Our LANGUAGE \nAnd REFUSE To Honor My/Our Flag \nWell I REFUSE To Let YOU Continue To Burden My Pocket \nAnd The Pockets Of My AMERICAN BROTHERS Of ANY DESCENT\n\nSAVOURFARE(Below)\n\nYou Are CORRECT That You May NOT WEAR THE FLAG, Or ALTER The Flag In ANY Way\nBut There Is NO REASON That You Or ANYONE ELSE Cannot Wear A T-Shirt With A FLAG Silkscreened On It, Or A Flag INSIGNIA\nSewn Onto Your Clothes\nALL US Servicemen Have A Flag Insignia On Their Uniforms And There Is NO LAW Stating That CITIZENS May Not Sew An Emblem Representing The Flag On Their Attire\n\nI See Your Response And You Got Me\nBUT As Stated In The Text "There Is No Penalty"\n"Merely GUIDELINES"\nIll Keep Wearin My T-Shirt With PRIDE__:)>-

Aah! Here we go again.....\n\n\nYou should make the same comment to the imperialist white men that came here and slaughtered the natives? If you lived during that time, would you have made the same statement to the white men about learning to speak the language of the local Native American Tribe.\n\nI often wonder why people insist that people speaking spanish should learn to speak english. \n\nIt is not their fault that YOU do not speak spanish. It is also NONE of your business what they are saying. The fact that you make the tired old comment of 'this is america, speak english' goes to show your level of intelligence.\n\nYou could fill a bottle cap with your knowledge. \n\nWhere you aware that the United States is filled with immigrants. Unless you are Native American, you have no business telling anyone that they should speak the language of this land. \n\nIf you were not monolingual, would you make the same comment. Did you know that in almost every other country, children are taught two languages.\n\nSo as a whole, most Americans are monolingual and have no room to tell anyone to learn another language.\n\nYou should learn how to speak mandarin becuase that soon will be the universal language.
