I agree RAZD. I would expect all immigrants to experience the same opportunity my Grandfather had.
But I also don't know if we became the United States of Mexico, if that would be a good thing. What are the implication's?
My Grandparents came here for a better way of life, not to make a few bucks and then head back to Italy, and build their dreams house, and start a business over there.
I am by no means an expert on this subject, but this is what I see.

I assume your grands came here legally? I know I did.
Yes, I have a certificate from Ellis Island.
You don't have to be an expert to understand the difference between legal and illegal immigrant.
Correct me if I am wrong, but aren't we trying to make a way for them to be legal?
However, they do NOT have the same opportunity, they have taken what is not theirs by stealth and deceit.
Yea...why?

I'll help fund a broad enough highway to send them all back to Mayhico at the same time.
Then be prepared to pay $5 an onion in the supermarket.
They are here illegally, basta.
You still didn't answer, why?

But if you live in Mexico, you automatically can jump ahead in line?
Doesn't an immigration bill include everyone trying to enter in this country?
Also that Vietnamese family are being detained by who, Americans?
Also, don't mis-understand me, I am not for Mexicans coming here illegally.

That's the problem. Nobody is detaining the family.
Ok, you marry the guy, and I will marry the girl, and we'll get them here

Mind explaining the Adam Sandler part?
It's just two guys pretending to be gay, and getting married, for a higher purpose. I thought it was relevant.
