I believe that most illegal immigrants want this nation and its values to succeed.
I disagree. I think that most illegal aliens, especially those from Mexico, despise or at least dislike this country and want to see American values replaced by Mexican values. Their loyalty first, last, and always is to Mexico.

If this were true they would stay in Mexico.
Mexico is more mexican than the US.
The truth is that Mexico is a rather bad place besieged by drug runners and corruption. This leads people to leave the nation in droves looking for better life in America.
The effort to portray all illegal immmigrants as valueless America haters is a caricature. It makes the emotions feel good and increases ratings for Lou Dobbs but is largely irrational.

Their loyalty first, last, and always is to Mexico. My experience with illegal aliens in southeast WA state couldn't be more opposite. I don't like them coming across the border illegally, but those I know have started businesses (with fictitious paperwork?), pay taxes, fly American flags, celebrate the 4th of July, etc.

At the Mexico USA soccer game the crowd was raucously pro-Mexico. An American player commented "Every game with Mexico is an away game". This game was in Chicago a few days ago
This is what Mexicans living here think about the nation they parasitize
