Poll: 76 percent of voters say 'Dreamers' should be allowed to stay
The Hill ^

Posted on 09/07/2017 2:25:09 PM PDT by matt04

More than three-quarters of Americans surveyed think that beneficiaries of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrival (DACA) program should be allowed to stay in the United States, according to a Morning Consult/Politico poll.

Seventy-six percent of respondents said the government should allow immigrants brought to the U.S. illegally as children to remain. 58 percent of that 76 percent believe they should be able to become citizens if they meet certain requirements, while 18 percent said they should be allowed to become legal residents.

Only 15 percent of respondents said such immigrants — commonly called "Dreamers" — should be deported, the poll found.

Looking at the data from the poll, they sampled 53% Female, 35% Dem/33% Ind/32% Rep. I'm shocked, shocked I tell you.

These polls are about as valid as claims that there are still only 11-12 million illegal aliens in the US.

***WARNING***

Don’t believe these Lying Leftist Media outlets like The Hill that proved themselves during the 2016 campaign to be operatives of the DNC and intentional liars. They are presumed to be lying and we should presume what they publish is a lie. The presumption can only be rebutted with the outlet providing clear and convincing evidence they are not lying.

We should be mostly publishing the truth on FR, not the lies, and as much good news as possible to bolster morale. We should find and post reasonably reliable sources that have already deconstructed the lie and replaced it with the truth and with a headline that says the truth. We need much more of that on FR IMO. The key is the headline and the first few sentences because not everyone has time to drill down. The endless stream of negative, lying headlines sabotages our purpose IMO.

Revoke the anchor babies amendment, build a wall, enforce E-verify, and a few other things, and I will welcome the DACA whiners.
Ain’t gonna happen.

IF they stay, only allowed on good behavior.

The vast bulk of these “youth” are well into their 20’s or older, and presumed to have been sufficiently immersed in US culture so they SHOULD assimilate. Failure to assimilate, or a criminal record, should be sufficient in and of itself to proceed with deportation.

No gangbangers need apply. We can raise our own without importing any more.

Never have. Also should be aware of what the Dem/MSM publishes.

Right, it should be for informational purpose only with “barf alert” in the title.

Someone should ask President Hillary Clinton what she think about the accuracy of polling.

Let them stay and what does it say to the millions more who are thinking of sending their kids across the border?

It says go ahead and send them because the stupid gringos will give them amnesty, too, just like every tranche of illegals before them.

Stop giving prizes for illegal entry!

I may have missed it, but in reading the article I didn’t see the exact verbiage of the question(s) asked by the pollsters. If a push poll, which it probably was, of course the results are what the pollsters wants them to be.
