Illegal Immigration is Legal?

The far-right critics will say that Obama tricked enough middle-class white suburban democrats and republicans so that he could get into office and now that they are realizing their mistake in supporting him, Obama has now let twenty million foreign and illegal immigrants take their place. By letting these immigrants into the country, President Obama is certain that he will have all of these people behind him in the next election, they will not only feel obligated to vote for him, but they will probably have been coerced into it as well. Immigrants vote, they believe in the system and they try to be a part of it.
The far-left will question how these new citizens can be exploited and taxed for if they become legal, they will vote, but they will also pay taxes finally and stop living off of the work other Americans are doing. This is somewhere that the liberal and conservative population will agree on, as long as immigrants are being given their citizenship they must become real citizens and orive themselves. Whoever gets to this population first and guides them into comfort will have their support and Barack is giving the Democratic Party a great many new followers.

Many analysts are skeptical that Obama can navigate the political minefield of illegal immigration in his first year, while confronting the plunging economy and two wars. Still, groups on both sides are commissioning polls to gauge Americans' appetite for the immigration issue and assembling teams to file legislation for their cause next year http://www.boston.com/news/nation/articles/2008/11/17/obama_faces_pressure_on_immigration_reform/

The only way I can see that will stop immigation is to make America seem like an unappealing place to live. Although, this did not seem to work during the past years of endless troubles from war to economic instability. Still, there will be no way to stop illegal immigration as long as America is an appealing place for immigrants to turn to when they feel that they must leave their home countries. 'Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearnin to breathe free." This statement tells the world that America is a place where anyone can go to find reasons to live freely and pursue happiness; this is a belief that all Americans hold, it is what make sus unique and I believe that this is a reason that many foreign nations dislike America so much. Either it is out of jealousy or fear for any nation who can take in the tired and poor masses yearning to be free is a nation that has extreme power and wealth, enough for everyone no matter who you are and what you have been.

There has always been a question of whether Americans should concern themselves with the well-being of the entire world when there are millions of people here in the United States are in need of help. It seems that Barack Obama wishes to service the entire world through American leadership and inenuity. His campaign promises were to take care of the economic instability in this country, but immediately after takin office, the man extends his promise to the entire world. He has done nothing for US citizens. Not yet at least.
