An off-the-wall question - such as something about the Mayflower - would be derided by his supporters as meaningless, but it would probably also send him scrambling for an answer and would show that he really hasn't thought all of this through. Or, just read his comments back and ask him exactly what he suggests we do.

"There are some families who have been here for 4 or 500 years. They didn't cross the border, the border crossed them."

So, is he saying he doesn't recognize the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo?

Yeah, I remember it was the 1840s. There were 50 million Mexicans living in Cal and then we moved the border and made them Americans. Oh, the humanity!

Any family that's been here for 500 years are called citizens. Highly unlikely they crossed into Mexico to give birth.

“We are a nation of immigrants,” Obama answers.

“We are a nation of LEGAL immigrants,”
There, that’s better!

Want to know what happens to your land and culture when unlimited immigration happens? Ask an American Indian to find out.

This constant Kevin Costneresk Hollywood crap about the Indians really gets my goat. The indians were barely able to make fire when the settlers came. They were basically cavemen still running around naked and eating roots and insects and behaving like barbaric, undeveloped neandrathals. Until the Spanish arrived, they didn’t even have horses. To promote them as some special spiritually elevated royalty deserving of all that the conquering Europeons have built-just give it back to the indians-is to be ignorant of history. They lost. Get over it, libs.

An off-the-wall question - such as something about the Mayflower -

...or any immigration prior to the United States of America coming into existence. Most of which was white Anglo-Saxon Protestant. And some were slaves.

Actually, everyone in America has an immigrant in their background somewhere. Even American Indians. Why go back just 4-500 years? But does this mean we should ignore national law and accept anyone who comes here illegally? If they're willing to break the law to get here (which our ancestors didn't, BTW), why should we trust them to live lawful lives while here?

The Aztecs didn’t live in current US territory.

And they wouldn’t move here. That’s why the Spanish and Mexican governments invited the US Europeans in. So the French wouldn’t take over their territory.

Any descendants of the Aztecs who were living in the these territories would be US citizens now because they were born here.

Duh!

He must just be stupid. I am not an immigrant. One would have to go back at LEAST 6 or 7 generations to find an immigrant in my direct lineage. Using this definition, everyone on earth is an immigrant as at some point in their ancestry were people who came from somewhere else.
Idiot. (and I don’t toss that word around lightly).

Most of the decendents of the people that the border crossed are much happier and better off than they would be if they were living in Mexico which is riddled with gang warfare and police corruption. Again, BO casts America as the imperialist aggressor, on inferior moral footing than its conquests. But someone who hasn’t lived in America all his life, particularly his formative years, probably wouldn’t feel that way.

Obama is such an idiot. Even the Indian tribes had boundaries (i.e., regions where one tribe or another dominated, and those regions were very much defended, because encroachment meant the available food supply would be compromised). Consider, just for illustration, the Apache. The Apache is of Athapaskan stock, and originally hailed from what is now Canada. However, the Apache has always been associated with the American Southwest (principally New Mexico and Arizona). The Apache of the Southwest was a people who came from the north and displaced those who were there before them; the same can be said of the Sioux, who were of Algonquin stock and moved westward onto the Great Plains, displacing (and slaughtering) the Arikara and the Hidatsa, and having a long-term fight with the Crow over the Bighorn and Yellowstone regions.

So the tribal leaders' ancestors didn't immigrate from somewhere? Does BHO believe in an American genesis?

What a rube. He really needs to shut up. He’s starting to out pander McCain:

““Let me close by talking briefly about my respect and gratitude for the contributions of Hispanic-Americans to the culture, economy and security of the country I have served all my adult life. I represent Arizona where Spanish was spoken before English was, and where the character and prosperity of our state owes a great deal to the many Arizonans of Hispanic descent who live there,” McCain said.
