The problem is that, like Senator Sessions, anyone who does have the clout and intent to address this subject are consciously excluded from decision-making power by sheer weight of the corporate-media-political complex that demands unfettered mass immigration from the third world.


OK, we are mostly on the same page. But I think the reason Trump is getting attention on this issue is not that he helps but because he makes people who oppose the illegal’s invasion look bad.

I am concerned about Trump’s probable third party run. The only way to stop that is if his poll numbers drop to near zero. There are probably not enough people here on Free Republic to make a difference but we have to start somewhere. We need to try to bring some sanity to the IMO unjustified support he is getting even here.

You make a very good point.

I've seen this done in more subtle ways as well.

The media, which makes it a point to exclude any legitimate criticism of open borders policies in any forum, will occasionally air a grievance from the most ignorant, louche or uniformed quarter.

A great example is an anti-cheap labor 1 minute segment PRI Marketplace aired about a year ago in response to a typical COC-style pro-immigration segment.

Naturally, they chose a woman who, albeit well-intentioned, had no command of the facts and came across as a bumptious hayseed.
