As far as I'm concerned there is no difference

Yes there is. I and my family and every other Hispanic CITIZEN are LAW ABIDING. Our first action in the United States was NOT a LAW BREAKING ONE. Another difference is that we speak the language and are willing to assimilate, unlike the illegals coming over here now. I think the Administration and those on BOTH sides of the aisle in Congress who are for a "guestworker" program (especially a program that doesn't address the anchor babies my mom helps deliver and also pays for as a county resident) are doing so not for economic reasons (because I'd be willing to pay more than 99 cents per pound for oranges and more than 49 cents per pound for chicken) but to pander to Hispanic voters because of the outcry of vocal La Raza type groups.

Your family's history may be important to you, but you might be surprised to learn that most people don't care.

Most people judge others on how they act, not who their ancestors were.

Your great great grandfather might have fought the Indians for his land, but unless you are willing to fight me for your land you aren't any different than the person who doesn't even know who his father is.

By the way. Those anchor babies are American citizens, entitled to all the rights and privileges of an American citizen, regardless of who his or her ancestors were.
