And probably half of the U.S. Congress would let them.

Why don’t we just go ahead and start annexing Mexican Territories as States. The way we are headed into becoming like Mexico City we might as well make it official.

They eventually will. It’s the unspoken, yet obvious objective of the American left.

Let’s deport all the ones that are already here and then just govern Mexico as a colony. That makes much more sense.

Well, not with Obummer in the Whitehouse... he can’t govern anything and would only make Mexico poorer than it already is.

>>>Sigh<<<

Refusing to be outdone, I would bet one half of Africa would move to America if given chance.

They needed to spend money on conducting a survey to figure this out?

Let's see now. Mexico has 110 million people, so that would be close to 40 million new Mexican immigrants. I believe our illegal population already totals nearly 40 million, based on this analysis:

But this poll provides substantive fodder for the immigration debate. When they try to bring up amnesty again, we need to ask our elected representatives if they agree that this would be a good idea. Bottom line, the entrance of 40 million additional Mexican peasants WOULD be the end of our country as we know it.

We can’t afford to build sewer systems. Sanitation Plants. Clean up the toxic waste dumps. OR kill all the narco-terrorists.
Not to mention educate a whole country.

They try to come to the USA because of the corrupt government in Mexico not caring for them. Well guess what, the government is now the same thing here and the Mexican drug war is spilling into the US.

And some of the “immigrants” are really drug dealers and members of the drug cartels. Along the border they hijack and kill tourists and American citizens.

Why would they? The sitting POTUS just told the world there’s really nothing exceptional about the USA. Nothing worth coming for, guys. Just stay in Mexico. Or Russia. Or Ireland. All countries in the world are just the same, get over your silly ideas that there’s anything special about the USA.

When asked if they would approve of this level of migration, 2/3 of Californians said “Si!”

The people who admit they can't give us a correct number on how many illegals are here, are the same people who promise us that these illegals will be screened out of the “free” health care under the proposed plan...hmmmm
