First and foremost I want to say, there is no such thing as an illegal immigrant. The only way to become an immigrant is to do so legally.

I suppose that if I were "politically correct" I could call the estimated 11.2 million illegal aliens - illegal immigrants. The problem I see with calling them illegal immigrants is that an immigrant tries at least to get here legally - illegal aliens move in and never gain citizenship - and live sometimes better than Americans. We here is the US give illegal aliens everything they need to survive - why would they want to leave or gain citizenship and lose all the freebies?

Amendment 14 - Citizenship Rights - was written to guarantee citizenship for freed slaves. It's been misinterpreted to give citizenship to children of illegal aliens. "Anchor babies" as they are called do not fit within the 14th amendment. The last time the 14th amendment was ratified was in 07/09/1868, I'd be guessing here but I bet that the US didn't have a problem with illegal aliens back then as we do now.

This is a severe problem here in the US and with Barack Hussein Obama aka Barry Soetoro in leadership, it will only continue to get worse. It is evident that he has no plan to stop the estimated 2 million illegal aliens that enter the US every year. Signs were put up by Obama's administration warning US citizens of drug and alien smugglers, and Mexican drug cartels now control some parts of the state in Arizona. One would have thought this was down on the border, but it was more than 100 miles north of the border.  read more »
