We cannot stop some form of legalization from happening-
even Palin sees that
WE can only take control of HOW it is going to happen.
Phased, with requirements that must be met and qualifiers like every other country has, allowing registered guest worker status for menial labor who just want to send money
(taxed) home and billing Mexico for their healthcare and social needs, doing away with “anchor baby” status for those NOT enrolled in or cooperating in the legalization process, securing the border, and planning assimilation to occur over a period of time would be my approach.
Build a new pool of conservatives! Many Cubans appreciate freedom and liberty.... business owners who emigrated from communism would make good sponsors

Oh, yeah, that 1986 amnesty under Reagan just turned all Hispanics into Republican voters. Right? People forget this has already been done.
I don't accept your premise. Of course we can stop legalization from taking place. Rolling over is not the answer. Legalization will destroy this country with the stroke of pen and make the Dems the permanent majority party, which they are already on a path to do given our LEGAL immigration policies that essentially bring in Dem voters.
Palin is wrong on amnesty as is her mentor, John McCain. We had an amnesty in 1986. It didn't work.

Let's try enforcement first and see how that works out. Guest worker programs don't work unless you adopt draconian measures like Saudi Arabia and Singapore have. That would never be allowed under our Constitution or legal system. Doing away with birthright citizenship [jus solis] could take many years of court battles and perhaps require a Constitutional amendment. And it can't be back dated. We have 400,000 anchor babies a year being born in this country.
Everone seems to be in favor of securing the border, but that is being held hostage to amnesty by the Dems. And it is worth noting that 30 to 40% of all illegals have come here legally and are visa overstays. Securing the border will not prevent that.
Planning assimilation? The numbers are getting too big to do that. The U.S. adds one international migrant (net) every 36 seconds. Immigrants account for one in 8 U.S. residents, the highest level in more than 80 years. In 1970 it was one in 21; in 1980 it was one in 16; and in 1990 it was one in 13. In a decade, it will be one in 7, the highest it has been in our history. And by 2050, one in 5 residents of the U.S. will be foreign-born.

Second and third generation Cuban-Americans are trending Dem. And even if they weren't, the numbers from places like Mexico and Central America dwarf those numbers. There are approximately 47 million Hispanics in this country now. Most of them are Dem voters.

LOL. More pollyanish BS. Have you ever been to Central America? I have. The idea that we can somehow turn these countries around so people won't leave and come to the US is pure delusion. These are corrupt societies, which are ruled by elites. The Rule of Law and property rights are alien to most of them. Being poor in America is far more attractive than living in these societies. The problem is that America cannot take everyone who wants to come here. We are being overwhelmed now by immigration, legal and illegal.
Yes, we can stop it. It is people like you who make it difficult but throwing in the towel because A: you think it is too hard or B: Because you are really a pro illegal yourself.
There is nothing we cannot do, and as for kicking them all out we have done it before and can do it again. The key is electing people who have the cojones(or balls if you prefer) to carry out the laws of this country and to protect the American public.
