BALTIMORE, May 2, 2013- obama and other pro-open border folk want the American public to view illegal immigrants as people who want to come here to live the American Dream; that is, to become American Citizens, live for the red, white and blue, share the wealth and Mother, God and apple pie. They are determined to reach that goal and just won't be denied in their quest for it. Now, the BBC and a new poll have cast grave doubts on that tired stereotype.
The new poll says that among legal immigrants already living in the United States, barely one in five of them want to actually become American Citizens. Meanwhile, the BBC reported today that most of those folk coming into the USA only want to get jobs to send money back to their families. As soon as they have sent a fair amount back, most of them want to return to Mexico to live. In the BBC report, a man who had lived in the USA for nearly ten years before being deported said his memories of his time here are anything but good. And really, how much of a life is it when capture and deportation lurk around every corner, and every person with an American accent could be an undercover INS agent? The Mexican citizen interviewed by the BBC said he hopes that the Mexican government can reach an agreement with obama to allow people to come to America to work, but also to return home when they wish. In other words, Mexicans want to come and go as they please. The story that is emerging for those folk who really want answers is that a very large group of Mexican folk want to be able to come here to earn money because the economy in their country is really bad and, because of out-of-control drug cartels and tremendous downward pressure from a swooning obama-impuned American economy. But the same people who want to come here for a time to earn money have no desire to stay. They are proud to be Mexicans and Mexico is their home. Their families are there. Most of them are sending a large part of their earnings back to those families. These people want to do what a large number of Americans do when they travel to Middle Eastern countries to work in the petroleum industry: they want to earn a big chunk of money and then return to their families and their home. Many American landlords tell of renting an apartment to an immigrant "couple," only to find a short time later that upwards of eight to ten people are sleeping in the apartment rented to two people. All ten have jobs, far more than is necessary to pay the rent and food costs. The excess income is wired back to Mexico.
This is food for thought, at least. obama and the left are scheming to allow people to come here whenever they want. But they couch those desires in talk that this is what these immigrants really want. And of course, obama wants these people to turn into democratic voters asap. But that isn't what a lot of them want, it is turning out. One commentator, Mr. Limbaugh, has suggested that both sides could reach an immigration agreement in no time if the immigrants would agree not to vote in American elections for ten years.
Might it be that most immigrants don't ever want to vote here?
