Joe Biden praised young ‘DACA’ illegal migrants as more American than Americans during a Thursday campaign event in Rock Hill, South Carolina.
“We have to find a [amnesty] pathway for dreamers … These kids who come, and they end up doing well. They become American before a lot of Americans become Americans — No, I’m serious, they get in school, they do well, they contribute to the community, they contribute to the country,” he said.
Biden’s praise for illegals was tied up with his view of America as a land of working immigrants — rather than of Americans and their children — and with his sympathy for migrants. For example, he described the Statue of Liberty as an invite to migrants from around the world, saying:
The idea that we are changing the nature of our people by not allowing the notion of [Central American] people seeking asylum. Asylum! What’s that Statue of Liberty about? It’s about asylum! Asylum!
In fact, the Statue was created to champion Americans’ culture of liberty, not to convert Americans’ homeland into a refuge.
Biden also urged the closure of border detention centers — “close them down” — and the quick transfer of migrants into the asylum courts. But he dodged the vital question of whether the U.S. government would repatriate migrants who lose their courtroom pleas for asylum by suggesting he would provide aid to Central American countries if they send more migrants:

Democrats are idiots.
What a stupid statement.
It means nothing to become a citizen does it, Biden? I mean nothing special. You know, you learn the language, you pass a civics exam, you take an oath. NOthing you dumb POS.
Sick of this.
I certainly hope all “old school” democrats are aware of what’s taking place within their party. The democrats have been relegated to the Party of the Absurd. Every single candidate is campaigning upon ideas that will bury this United States.
Yes, they did...just not in any legal sense.
DACA was never legal.
It has no basis in law.
The GOP refused to sue to stop Obama because they wanted amnesty any way they could get it.
It would a threat to national security to have someone whose brain is ceasing to function, such as Biden, as president.
Flimsey Grahamnesty STILL wants to make them citizens.
Trump offered them DACA amnesty and they turned it down.
They want the issue, not the solution...........
Well... That certainly clears up any misunderstanding... Always appreciate a concise, well-thought out, factual explanation
Is this more of Biden’s “Truth over Facts”?
Well, when your definition of “become American” is “vote Democrat”, you say stupid things like this.
It was a threat to national security to ignore the Constitution and swear in a British subject/Kenyan national and there are people here on FR that think that was OK.
In fact they would be willing to make Anwar Al-Awlaki’s kids, born in Yemen to one citizen parent, eligible to be President.
If Ted Cruz is a natural born citizen, so are they.
Natural born citizens have ONE nationality, that was the whole purpose of the stipulation.
DACA was a usurpation by Obama in direct violation of American law. (REAL impeachment material.) No one did anything about it.
Every Day. Every Single Day. Not a day goes by that Joe “I’m not Nuts” Biden doesn’t say something stupid.
