You're right, many people don't believe that there is an actual invasion until it hits their area. Even when they read that there are 15 million or more illegal aliens here in America they either ignore the statistics or don't believe it until they actually see it, then it's too late. They think it's only in the border states, but it's not, it's everywhere now, with the complete acceptance of the President of the United States and most of the politicians.
President Bush is well aware that the majority of Americans are against amnesty, but here he is now talking again to Vicente Fox about amnesty. Our votes don't count anymore. I realized that when Proposition 187 here in California was canceled out by one judge. Imagine that, the votes of millions of Californians canceled by one judge who looked for a loophole and found it, knowing that our Governor wouldn't take any action in California's defense.
If votes from American taxpayers/citizens don't count, why vote?
