President Bush is trying when it comes to immigration.
He just appeared in Omaha, Nebraska in front of an invited audience of 400 people to hear him talk about immigration reform.
He is trying but I don’t think he has the right ideas to solve the ‘problem’.
First of all, I am surprised he found 400 Americans in Nebraska to show up as an audience. Nebraska is one state whose economy that without immigration – illegal or otherwise – would collapse overnight.
I used to be in favor of closing the border but I am not anymore. There is plenty of room in this nation as anyone can tell you.
Mexico and the United States are close. The border is imaginary. Our populations have met in the middle of the continent and we are mixing now. The reality is that rather than a system to integrate these folks it should be admitted they are integrated. Mexico is part of the United States just as the United States is a part of Mexico.
I believe that dual citizenship is the realistic solution to this manufactured problem.
Presidente Fox calling Mexicans that leave Mexico for the U.S. patriots is just as absurd as President Bush calling for immigration reform even though during the time Bush was governor of Texas over 5 million illegal aliens entered Texas.
Anyone in North or South America is an American already. We are living our lives that way and it is about time our governments catch up to reality.
 
Yes Bush has the wrong ideas when it comes to immigration.

But border really isn't imaginery. It shows more or less where the sepparation of two distinctly different cultures and societies is. I mean sure I think it wouldn't be a really bad idea to make Mexico the 51st state of the United States but that won't happen because the US and Mexico are widely different places socially, economically, culturally, etc. Because they are not 'part of each other'. They exist side by side and yes things that happen in one country oftentimes affect the other but their not the same country. They don't even share a common language.

Though I must say it would be appealing to elect an American as the President of Mexico. If you give people duel citizenship.. then 300 million Americans can vote in the Mexican elections.

I am against daul citizenship.No one should have split loyalties.It seems like a step closer to globalism.

I believe there should be a huge wall on the border so that most of the people coming into this country are doing it the legal way.
