“Nobody is ever conservative enough for conservatives.”

A flow of alien invaders limited only by the number of restless Mexican citizens and pass-thrus of other nationalities is not compatible with the notion that the U. S. of America is a sovereign nation with self-defined and strictly defended geographic borders. If this is too conservative to be politically viable, then we must concede to Democrats their permanent electoral majority, marking their ballots legally or not.

Aaron Burr ended up shooting Alexander Hamilton over a number of issues, but at the same time he wanted to expand the USA into the entirity of Spanish North America ~ and absorb the far larger (then) population in Mexico. No doubt he had visions of underpricing slavery or some such ~ and bringing us cheap lettuce.

Alas, we'll never know all the facts on this guy but he almost single handedly brought the end to the Federalist party with this shooting. Jefferson went on to buy Louisiana Territory from Napoleon (who was just then ruling Spain).
