Biden: Congress should immediately make ‘Dreamers’ citizens
Associated Press ^ | June 24, 2019 | Bill Barrow

Weighing in on immigration before first Democratic debates, Joe Biden is proposing that Congress grant immediate citizenship to more than 800,000 U.S. residents who were brought to the country illegally as children.

The former vice president and Democratic polling leader introduced some of his immigration priorities Monday in a newspaper op-ed that blisters President Donald Trump for an “assault on the dignity” of the Latino community through policies and rhetoric designed to “scare voters” in 2020.

“Trump repeatedly invokes racist invective to describe anyone south of the Rio Grande,” Biden writes, assailing him for “actions that subvert our American values and our ability to lead on the global stage.”

Biden, who launched his 2020 campaign in April, calls for streamlining the asylum system for migrants and spending more on electronic security at borders instead of building Trump’s proposed U.S.-Mexico border wall. And he blasts Trump’s latest threats of mass deportation and his decision to cut aid to El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, three Central American nations that are sources of the increasing wave of migrants to the U.S. border. …

Then Democrats need to meet with the President and you can knock this out over the weekend. But, nothing gets done when you stay away.

Reality - for kids that have gone from k-12 in the US - we have invested $120K. If they get sent back, we get nothing from that investment. If they have a clean record, I have no problem putting them on a path to citizenship.

What race would that be, Plugs? "Latino" is of the Caucasian portion of the race spectrum.

assailing him for “actions that subvert our American values and our ability to lead on the global stage.”

Lead your own country well and the "global stage" will take care of itself.

“Dreamers”

Isn’t that a cute name for a band of parasites? Warm and cuddly. Our replacements.

We all have dreams, Joe. How about we pass a law that states anyone who doesn’t enter the US via proper and legal channels can NEVER vote in US elections? If you didn’t see these people as potential voters, you wouldn’t have any interest in them.

What about all the children being used at the border currently to help achieve asylum? If they stay, they too will become ‘Dreamers’. Should we give them automatic citizenship?

Besides, Democrats had the opportunity to help Dreamers, and didn’t take it at the time because it wasn’t politically expedient.

They are seeing the writing on wall with blacks and Blexit, so they will shift their pandering to the next available “oppressed minority”. With ~60 years of solid Communist rule in the worker’s paradise of Cuba, the dims see latinos as a very malleable group.

Biden doesn’t really have to pander like this. Despite that fact that he’s Joe Biden, he still appears to be leading most major polls, proving that Democrats are far more desperate than he is.

“At least he’s being completely honest about the Democrats’ agenda!”

Or, he has demographic data that indicates we’re now past the point of no return.

Frightening as that may be, what else explains the Dems universally insane immigration proposals?

While it sounds reasonable, a k-12 US education is not worth squat.let then go back and improve where they came from. Call it foreign aid.
