Jorge Ramos Comes Out Swinging: ‘It’s Not Donald Trump’s Country, This Is Our Country’
Yahoo! TV ^ | August 27, 2015 | Itay Hod

Posted on 08/27/2015 10:20:41 PM PDT by entropy12

Two days after he was booted from a Donald Trump press conference by security for asking questions about immigration out of turn, Univision anchor Jorge Ramos defended himself on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360.” Asked if he was grandstanding when he got into a confrontation with the GOP presidential frontrunner, Ramos said absolutely not. “I’m just a reporter asking questions,” Ramos explained. “But I also believe, Anderson, that you have to go the extra mile to be tough on those who are in power.”

The propaganda we hear from these activist Latinos is just what La Raza is promoting in our country. I consider La Raza a dangerous insurgent group.

Great thread. Thanks to all posters. I never heard of this guy before he inserted himself into Trump’s presser.

He is a naturalized citizen. The oath he took says he renounces allegiance
to his birth country.
Yet he brags about his dual citizenship and that he votes in both countries.
Is he voting in this Country illegally?

Hey Ramos...Trump should say "Lets take a look at the Mexican immigration laws"

And the treatment of immigrants into Mexico...

See Trumps % go up another 5 points.

Still trying to claim victimhood even though he was treated far better than he merited. I would have left him outside and sent word that throwing asshat hissy fits was not journalism - Trump handled it better than i would have - he can now point at how he let the guy back in despite his interruptions and then even called on him — in short, Trump can prove the lie that the guy is.

“Sit Dooooown!!!!!!!”

“Go back to Univision.”

Priceless...Trump is more entertaining that watching a great stand up comic...

God, how I wish the great ones were still alive to see this...Bob Hope, Johnny, ..

Ted Cruz, realized right out of the gate that Trump would get traction and not going away. The Trump/Cruz ticket makes perfect sense. Trump surrounds himself with the best people.

Someone posted in another thread that due to some court ruling dual citizenship is allowed now. It doesn’t make sense to me that one could pledge allegiance to two countries.

Ramos holds dual citizenship. He's Mexican by birth and when he naturalized for American citizenship in 2008, he retained his Mexican citizenship, claiming that he “cannot be defined by one country.”

And yet in his book "The Latino Wave," published after his naturalization, he said "It’s the Reconquest. Latinos are culturally reconquering lands that once were part of the Spanish empire…"

And as can clearly be seen by his fanatical advocacy (in the guise of a journalist) against any American border enforcement, Ramos is still a loyal Mexican citizen, wearing American citizenship as battle armor, giving his all to the Mexican Reconquista invasion by illegal aliens.

We have no proof that he has dual citizenship. What IS that, anyway?

And if he’s a citizen of a foreign country, which he is, what is he doing interviewing US presidential candidates and disrupting US presidential nomination process?

Why is that question being asked? Where is proof that he has this dual citizenship no one has ever heard of?

There are approximately 51 illegal aliens in America, the vast majority hispanic or mestizo or whatever.

I use the blanket term “beaners”.

Ramos demanded preferential treatment because is Mexican and the Univision start offending the rest of the journalist that follow the protocol and waited for their turn to ask questions.

Every time Ramos open his mouth to push the Mexican invasion of U.S. we should ask him about the Mexican Immigration laws.

To solve our immigration crisis U.S. should adopt the Mexican immigration laws, probably the most draconian in the world.

Mexico’s Ideal Immigration Law—Let’s try it here at home

Center for Security
Policy ^ | April 13, 2006 | J. Michael Waller

Mexico has a radical idea for a rational immigration policy that most Americans would love. However, Mexican officials haven’t been sharing that idea with us as they press for our Congress to adopt the McCain-Kennedy immigration reform bill.

That’s too bad, because Mexico, which annually deports more illegal aliens than the United States does, has much to teach us about how it handles the immigration issue. At a time when the Supreme Court and many politicians seek to bring American law in line with foreign legal norms, it’s noteworthy that nobody has argued that the US look at
how Mexico deals with immigration and what it might teach us about how best to solve our illegal immigration problem.

Mexico has a single, streamlined law that ensures that foreign visitors and immigrants are: in the country legally; have the means to sustain themselves economically; not destined to be burdens on society; of economic and social benefit to society; of good character and have no criminal records; and contributors to the general well-being of the nation.

The law also ensures that: immigration authorities have a record of each foreign visitor foreign visitors do not violate their visa status; foreign visitors are banned from interfering in the country’s internal politics; foreign visitors who enter under false pretenses are imprisoned or deported; foreign visitors violating the terms of their entry are imprisoned or deported; those who aid in illegal immigration will be sent to prison.

Who could disagree with such a law? It makes perfect sense.

The Mexican constitution strictly defines the rights of citizens – and the denial of many fundamental rights to non-citizens, illegal and illegal. Under the constitution, the Ley General de Población, or General Law on Population, spells out specifically the country’s immigration policy.

It is an interesting law – and one that should cause us all to ask, Why is our great southern neighbor pushing us to water down our own immigration laws and policies, when its own immigration restrictions are the toughest on the continent?

If the United States adopted the law, Mexico no doubt would denounce it as a manifestation of American racism and bigotry.

We looked at the immigration provisions of the Mexican constitution. Now let’s look at Mexico’s main immigration law.

Mexico welcomes only foreigners who will be useful to Mexican society: Foreigners are admitted into Mexico “according to their possibilities of contributing to national progress.” (Article 32)

Immigration officials must “ensure” that “immigrants will be useful elements for the country and that they have the necessary funds for their sustenance” and for their dependents. (Article 34)

Foreigners may be barred from the country if their presence upsets “the equilibrium of the national demographics,” when foreigners are deemed detrimental to “economic or national
interests,” when they do not behave like good citizens in their own country, when they have broken Mexican laws, and when “they are not found to be physically or mentally healthy.” (Article 37)

The Secretary of Governance may “suspend or prohibit the admission of foreigners when he determines it to be in the national interest.” (Article 38)

Mexican authorities must keep track of every single person in the country: Federal, local and municipal police must cooperate with federal immigration authorities upon request, i.e., to assist in the arrests of illegal immigrants. (Article 73)

A National Population Registry keeps track of “every single individual who comprises the population of the country,” and verifies each individual’s identity. (Articles 85 and 86) A national Catalog of Foreigners tracks foreign tourists and immigrants (Article 87), and assigns each individual with a unique tracking number (Article 91).

Foreigners with fake papers, or who enter the country under false pretenses, may be imprisoned:

Foreigners with fake immigration papers may be fined or imprisoned. (Article 116)

Foreigners who sign government documents “with a signature that is false or different from that which he normally uses” are subject to fine and imprisonment. (Article116)
Foreigners who fail to obey the rules will be fined, deported, and/or imprisoned:

Foreigners who fail to obey a deportation order are to be punished. (Article 117)

Foreigners who are deported from Mexico and attempt to re-enter the country without authorization can be imprisoned for up to 10 years. (Article 118)

Foreigners who violate the terms of their visa may be sentenced to up to six years in prison (Articles 119, 120 and 121).

Foreigners who misrepresent the terms of their visa while in Mexico – such as working with out a permit – can also be imprisoned.

Under Mexican law, illegal immigration is a felony. The General Law on Population says, “A penalty of up to two years in prison and a fine of three hundred to five thousand pesos will be imposed on the foreigner who enters the country illegally.” (Article 123)

Foreigners with legal immigration problems may be deported from Mexico instead of being imprisoned. (Article125)

Foreigners who “attempt against national sovereignty
or security” will be deported. (Article 126)

Mexicans who help illegal aliens enter the country are themselves considered criminals under the law:

A Mexican who marries a foreigner with the sole objective of helping the foreigner live in the countryis subject to up to five years in prison. (Article 127)

Shipping and airline companies that bring undocumented foreigners into Mexico will be fined. (Article 132)

All of the above runs contrary to what Mexican leaders are demanding of the United States. The stark contrast between Mexico’s immigration practices versus its American immigration is telling. It gives a clear picture of the Mexican government’s agenda: to have a one-way immigration relationship with the United States.

Let’s call Mexico’s bluff on its unwarranted interference in U.S. immigration policy. Let’s propose, just to make a point, that the North American Free Trade
Agreement (NAFTA) member nations standardize their immigration laws by using Mexico’s own law as a model.

I don’t see how a Court ruling can supersede a plain text Pledge for naturalization.
If the Court ruled against the pledge then it wouldn’t still contain the wording.
Besides, Congress has the exclusive power to control and enact requirements on naturalization.
Oh heck, I keep forgetting the Constitution is a living document. My bad.

Ramos whose family works for the Hillary campaign is an activist self serving shill whose business makes money from Spanish speakers.
He has his interest and not the best interest of the USA At heart.
He’s for Mexico and access to our social programs.
He’s for a Mexican take over of the USA by womb.

You don’t see him using his Mexican citizenship to fight corruption and drug lords in Mexico. Instead he stays on the safe side of the border undermining the USA IMO.

Ramos has family on the Hillary campaign.
How many tough questions about security and emails has Ramos asked about on his show, can anybody find out and report it here and to Trump?
