They would follow the same path the legal immigrants took.

>>>I don’t want this to get sucked down into a discussion about the policy, ideology, morality, etc surrounding the immigration issue.

Then talk to McCain’s campaign, not me. He should of thought of that before he paid for this ad.

For all of you who do not speak Spanish, here is McCain, in ENGLISH, speaking at National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials and promising to enforce his legislature he introduced with Ted Kennedy.

Which for a lot of them was accepting the Reagan Amnesty.

I don't think that people have a good understanding that it's the Reagan Amnesty that got us to where we are today with this being an issue that can literally swing an election (assumption that NM, CO and other hispanic-heavy, small elector states are going to be crucial give the closeness of the EC). Many of the illegals who accepted the amnesty are now legal citizens. They've had children, children who are now of voting age and are well aware that their parents first came to this country as illegals. We can't go back 22 years and slap Reagan and his folks around for what was a pretty stupid decision. We have to play the hand we have now been dealt as a result. Yeah, it completely sucks, but there are MANY more issues of importance to me where McCain (ACU 65%) has a record of aligning with my opinion and Obama (ACU 0%) doesn't.
