his new chairman, governor Wilson, supported 187 furiously against immigrants and Latinos," said state Democrat chairman Art Torres

Race-baiter Art Torres playing the race card again. The sad thing is that some people are so uneducated about Prop 187, they believe him, even though Prop 187 had nothing to do with "Latinos", just illegal aliens.

I wish Republicans could take a stand on protecting the rights of legal immigration applicants. Right now, a Mexican who files papers to work legally in the U.S. will have to go through much more time, hassle, and expense to enter than one who ignores the legal requirements, and in exchange for going through all the rigamarole will have a more restricted existence.

I can't see how anyone who believes in "fairness" could possibly regard this as a good thing.

If a candidate were to put things in those terms, I would expect he'd get a huge portion of the vote, including that of naturalized citizens. The only votes he'd stand to lose would be illegal ones.
