As usual, Peach, someone else has to do the work for you. There are many polls, etc. that show immigration as a VERY important issue and you know it. I'll post one and find others for you. NOW. Where is your poll that you are so proud of?
Why do you suppose my repub congressmen sent out one campaign flyer and it was ALL about controlling illegal immigration?And guess what he won by a landslide 64%.
"Our surveys show that immigration is the most important issue for likely voters in this state," says Fred Solop, a political scientist at Northern Arizona University and director of the Social Research Laboratory there. But voters aren't distinguishing between competing proposals, he adds: "They just want something to be done."

ROFL.
You don't get it. Deliberately, I'm sure.
I've posted the poll upthread. There are dozens just like it.
You find one single poll where Americans are asked to rank their concerns in this country where immigration is the first, second, third, or fourth concern. Just one will do.
Oh, and since you're clearly too lazy to actually look at the link I provided up thread, I'll provide it again.
As you can see (well maybe YOU can't but others can), immigration never tops even close to the list of concerns Americans have.
