Fresno State student body president acknowledges he is an illegal immigrant, refuses to step down
LA Times ^ | November 17, 2010

Pedro Ramirez, Fresno State's student body president, is an undocumented immigrant serving in the position without pay.

Ramirez, 23, attends school on scholarships and pays in-state tuition. California is one of 10 states that permit undocumented immigrants to pay in-state tuition -- a position that was upheld by the state Supreme Court this week.

After his election last June, he told the administration he would serve without pay -- a $9,000 stipend -- because he could not lie on employment papers. On Tuesday, an anonymous tip to the college newspaper forced Ramirez to go public.

He should be arrested and deported. Who cares if he steps down.

The same goes for illegal alien in the white house.

He can “refuse” all he wants.

Once upon a time in America, there was such a thing as law enforcement.

We truly live in a bizarre world where a foreign person illegally residing in California pays IN-STATE tuition whereas those who are American Citizens living in the other 49 states must pay the much higher out-of-state tuition.

Is there any wonder that California is bankrupt?

We need to quarantine California before the disease spreads further.

For what? According to the state of California he isn't breaking any laws and the voters must agree since they just elected politicians who support illegals more than they do the taxpayers that illegals leech off of. Just refuse any bailouts when the state comes begging for relief. Maybe that will be the wake-up call they need.

It isn't a law law, apparently.

What difference does it make? We have an illegal alien as President of the United States.

Once upon a time in America, the word 'illegal' meant 'in violation of the law' and resulted in arrest and arraignment.
