So you're not dumb, if you've been an effective campaign worker, and you do care about the issue. The remaining questions are: what's the motivation for BOTH Republicans and Democrats to be on the bandwagon for letting some 50 million Mexicans and OTMs in, [more on the way!] and why will they NOT back away from such policies? You're smart; you can work this one out. Why is it bigger than the future of the Republican Party, and any possible Republican base backlash?
[Real likely hints *here* and *here*]
Oh and question Number Two: what are you going to do about it?
