I believe a politician with a decidedly anti-immigration platform, both legal and illegal, would get broad support

They would get support, but only from citizens. They would lose support/money from the internationalists who are pushing the FTAA and the eradication of our borders to form a western hemispheric trade zone based on socialist government principles.

Guess who's support the candidates value the most?

Excellent points and to add to your observation.....if the FTAA goes through it shouldn't too hard to see that an all out assault will be made on our Constitution and legal system....I'm sure all the FTAA cheerleaders already have all their propaganda and talking points ready to go. This is the real "whole enchilada" these Marxists from south of the border have been spewing for several years now and illegal immigration is just the slow process of conditioning Americans to accept the inevitable.......this is serious stuff sportsfans!

If they do not represent the people that vote for them, then they are tyrants, not representatives.
