“...I tend to agree with this; but with the (very important!) caveat that an immigration bill must be accompanied by a provision that requires strict border control first....”

“accompanied”? Why accompanied? Why not legislation limited STRICTLY and ONLY to border control? Why are you falling into the Democrats’ trap?
If something is not done, I fear that Latinos will continue to vote heavily Democratic--almost as heavily as African-Americans do--and that is certainly not good for those of us who much prefer the Republican Party to the Democratic Party.
I just do not think it is wise--in fact, I am quite certain that it is unwise--to grant legal status to those who are already here illegally, without first securing our southern border. Really securing it.
