Here’s the thing. I know I don’t have to convince my fellow conservatives that illegal immigration is the destructive core of our nation’s problems. All conservatives already KNOW that.

I’m writing for the rest of the country, the moderates, and even the few liberals who are willing to be openminded. THEY don’t think immigration is a big deal. They wonder why the heck we won’t give up on this one and move on to other issues like healthcare and jobs and education and crime.

So I wrote it to answer that question.

I really didn’t realize I’d buried my thesis so deep.

When your premise is led off with something like it was, expect to get thwacked.

It sounded at first like you were saying it wasn’t a big deal.

If I can be honest, you’re not going to convince anyone who in 2015 does not already ready understand this is probably the biggest most threatening dangerous issue of them all. Because they’re either drooling in cups, or are the same one’s pushing this country killing invasion.

Yeah I finally "got" it, at the end. But when I saw the author was John Di Leo, I was stunned by the first paragraph or two.

That didn't sound like the John Di Leo I've read and enjoyed.

Good article in the end, but I think you got too clever by half.

You did a GREAT job, at least for anyone with an IQ over 92!
