Issues / Strengthening Latin American Allies and Confronting Tyrants

We must reaffirm our appreciation of legal immigration.

Reasons to agree:

1. We are a nation of immigrants, and they have contributed a great deal to our culture of hard work, entrepreneurship, faith in God, love of family, and respect for human life.
2. China, and India are gaining power because they have a lot of people. We can sustain growth, but not too much at a time.
3. We will need to bring people in, to take the jobs of the baby boomer's when they retire.
4. Citizens have to have a social security card, and driver's license. If you come into this country, we have to be able to track you, tax you, get finger prints, and all that stuff.
5. The democrats are trying to label efforts to stop illegal immigration as racist. If they succeed it will be more difficult to gain any control of the border.
