If you are here illegal then you are breaking the law. It is no different than stealing. This may not be a crime in your country but in the USA it is and we send you home. Why do you think it is ok to come here just because you are from the south? If you break the laws in your country what happens? If you are so unhappy with your country then fix it do not come here and destroy ours.

But they need to come legally. If you drink and drive it is still wrong. People forget that these people have broken the law. When people like me pay thousands to have our wives legally brought here then others should not be given the freedom to come without following the laws. If this man wants to apply then this is what he should do. In many countries if you go there illegally you will be shot or placed in prison. This boy should be mad at his father for being a law breaker.

…the best Rubio line on immigration…“send us your best and brightest” …for what? so they can take the jobs no one wants? …What happened to ‘Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these …’

Classic, …Rubio offers no solution on immigration. Wants only the best and brightest, ‘a reasonable plan for those already here illegally’, and tighter border control. …I especially hated all the phony hand gestures and fake smile at the end. He will never be President. “If you have a dream and are willing to work hard in America you will succeed” that belief doesn’t just apply to Americans. All of humanity wants a better life so why not start out with our neighbors to the south.

We all share the same values of being a citizen even if the country who gave us those values has a hard time giving us same title of a "citizen "

I missed it!!! But here comes Rubio’s response. I caught enough to see that Boehner just sat there, grim faced and never stood up during the past three standing ovations. “If you hate your job you should quit.” …The “they deserve a vote” line should be used for all the Dreamers who grew up here, not just for the gun rights issue. Lets see what Rubio has to say.

I’m concerned because he gave no details as to how children and adults who are undocumented would be protected until the bill passes and when the bill is passed. Can we trust his word? Again?
