please reconsider..its the islamic facists not poor mexicans. These people pick our fruit and clean our toilets they wish us no harm.

Would you please explain to us all why 30% of our prison beds is taken by these *poor mexicans* who wish us no harm?

I know these *poor mexicans* are supposed to have wonderful family values and all that would make them great citizens.

Would you please explain to us all why so many of them refuse to cross at a Port of Entry and why they refuse to assimilate themselves to us?

Would you please explain to us all why so many of them were carrying the Mexican flag during their marches last fall?

Would you please explain to us all why so many of them refuse to learn the English language?

While you are at it, please explain why our President appears more interested in preserving the Mexican culture than he is the American culture.

Just a few more simple questions, are you Hispanic? If you are not, why are you so interested in helping the *poor mexicans*? Have you adopted any of these *poor mexicans* yet?

"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...

There can be NO divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all.

We have room for but ONE flag, the American flag...

We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...

and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

Theodore Roosevelt 1907

We are now one of the largest Spanish-speaking nations in the world. We're a major source of Latin music, journalism and culture.

Just go to Miami, or San Antonio, Los Angeles, Chicago or West New York, New Jersey ... and close your eyes and listen. You could just as easily be in Santo Domingo or Santiago, or San Miguel de Allende.

For years our nation has debated this change -- some have praised it and others have resented it. By nominating me, my party has made a choice to welcome the new America.

Pandering at its ugliest. Apparently George Bush’s America bears no resemblance to Teddy Roosevelt’s.

A President with divided allegiance is a danger to his people.
