Jeff, I admire your positive outlook. However, I see it as not possible in 2010, because they plan on flooding the electorate with newly ordained Democrats from Mexico.
They plan on granting amnesty to all those Illegals already here, (30 million) just by requiring them to register, pay a few hundred dollar fine, learn a few words in English and throw the doors wide open at the border. All they need do in the future is, register, pay a fee, have family already here or have a medical or economic crisis to get citizenship.
Of course, they will get Universal National Health Care immediately. And they will come in a wave like the Indonesian Disaster.
I’m actually ok with this plan to get some infrastructure projects going as long as only US citizens are allowed to be part of the workforce.
I fear you are correct though. Our “friend” GWBush essentially fell asleep at the wheel while 15 million new democratic voters entered the US from Mexico from 2000 to 2008. And with the economic downturn, many of those 15 million who have jobs will probably lose them and we’ll be in the mess of trying to support them if Obama and dems grant amnesty.
