That’s basically what’s happening in Texas with in-state tuition for illegals. They get tuition breaks (including state aid) under the premise they have applied for citizenship. You therefore have a group of people in citizenship purgatory. It’s is exactly as you say it is... a citizen hybrid. Wait until Newt and others say they should be given the same rights as true US citizens. It’s coming, folks.
I know the Somos Republicans are on board. They portray themselves as latino republicans but are really nothing but pro amnesty latinos.
On the past they encouraged candidates to use tea partiers to get elected and then toss us overboard in favor of Amnesty.
