In the old days when CA, TX, AZ, NM, FL where not literally taken over by illegal aliens it was a lot easier to attempt to explore ways that satisfied both side of the immigration issue. Those days are long gone. BTW, I thought you said you were not for open borders. Are you changing your mind again?
Nope, and nothing that I have said even indicates that.
My point is that the problems in the 1980's only dwarf in lighht of what's going on today. But not to the people in the 80's...and that's when Reagan said it.
You just can't grasp that, can you?
