And I believe he meant LEGAL immigration. Then why would he even bring it up? We have absolutely no issue in this country with legal immigration, and we haven't for a long time. That's like bringing up the War of 1812.

WND:The pontiff, asked by reporters on his flight to the U.S. Tuesday if he would address Hispanic immigration, said the U.S. must do "everything possible to fight ... all forms of violence so that immigrants may lead dignified lives."

I really couldn't say. I can voice my opinion, which is that Tancredo misunderstood or misinterpreted. We must remember that the Pope is German, and English is not his native tongue. I don't believe he meant that the US should welcome all citizens of the world here, without exception, that would be ludicrous!
