There is nothing wrong with immigrants. It's ILLEGAL Immigrants that are a problem.

I agree with you. This nation was built on the vitality and ingenuity of immigrants looking to make a better life.

“This nation was built on the vitality and ingenuity of immigrants looking to make a better life. “

No, this country was built on the vitality and ingenuity of the founding fathers and other colonists who were BORN here, who were NOT immigrants. Only 9 of the 56 signers of the declaration were ‘immigrants’.

If your theory were true, this nation would not decline every time there is a huge wave of immigration and there would be no need for we ‘natives’ at all. We had the sense to stop it before. We’ll see if we’re that smart again.

I will ask this question again...which I have NEVER gotten an answer to...

HOW many legal immigrants would you allow into this country each year?
