The so-called "DREAM Act" which Obama, Biden, Holder, and the progrsseives in Congress want passed, is just plain wrong.
Time was when US citizenship meant something. Not so much any more.
Depending on where one lives, a person can get a driver's license and register to vote without being a citizen - even being an illegal alien.
As an illegal someone can get a job even though it's been against the law for years for anyone to hire illegals, and it's easy enough for someone to get a green card or work visa.
As an illegal or even a foreign terrorist, Miranda rights and access to our court system is freely given.
What the Administration and Congress want to do is give everyone who broke the law by sneaking into this country a pass. Suddenly they now are legal. Obviously, it's much easier to grant amnesty than enforce the laws.
We have a reputation as a nation of laws. Now we have selective enforcement. Might have something to do with winning votes.
We are talking about such a sweeping amnesty program that the future of our legal system is in jeopardy. So we grant millions of illegals amnesty. In a few years, we'll have to do it aagin, and then again on down the road. No where to draw the line except right here and now.
Otherwise, take down the fence and send the border guards home. Make passports available online - just download and add a picture.
Oh, and what about all of the proud naturalized citizens or those with a green card who immigrated through proper channels? What message is this sending to them? That they needn't have bothered doing it right?
