I think we should have a foreign legion, with only American officers, and citizenship after 15 or 20 years of satisfactory service, but that’s another story.

HHMMM: Shades of Starship Troopers (the book by Heinlein; not the stupid movie).
NO HONORABLE SERVICE? NO CITIZENSHIP-NO FRANCHISE.
Let only those who are willing to put their lives on the line in service to their family, their community, their country; have a voice in that in that families, communities and countries most important decisions.
Just as a matter of interest, a sentiment I agree with whole heartedly.

Due to my experience in the classified arena, I became our security manager. It was amazing how many latinos had their paperwork come back for clarification as to whether or not they lied about the citizenship og their parent (usually single mother). They had been told theta the parent had gone through the process of becoming a legal citizen and it turned out that wasn't true. Some were genuinely upset and others were examples of "good illegals" and couldn't give a hoot.
